Dont hear much about this guy mentioned in discussions of the history of Creed. I wonder how big a part he played in their early years. I think I only came across one picture of him with the band.
“If you’re a rock music fan, you may have first heard of Brian Brasher as guitarist and founding member of the now defunct band Creed”
“Brasher played with Creed until 1996”
I wasn’t sure what to expect going into this show but he sounded and looked great. He was very humble and his interaction with the crowd was awesome. He seemed almost surprised and very humbled by the crowd reaction. (Also, saw him twice with Creed in 2024 & 2025 - feel the same, but he looks a little too jacked now in my opinion, although my wife doesn’t seem to mind, 😆). Great frontman.
Planet Zero (still love that album) was such a hard rock juggernaut that I’ll give these guys a pass for Eight. Only 3 songs with staying power from my perspective - DKD, Blowing up the Disco , S&S. The rest is solid pop rock but not my thing. Hopefully they get their edge back, but I have eternal appreciation for PZ, so they are fine by me whatever they do in the future. That album is a 10.5 in my book.
I’ve been listening to full circle a lot lately. I think the production is really good on that album. The instruments really pop - just a really crisp sound, even Scott sounds pretty flawless with Overcome, Bread of Shame, Thousand Faces, Suddenly & Rain as my favorites. Wiki says Tremonti has prominent vocals on Away in Silence which I never knew.
Anyway, any word or thoughts on a producer for the upcoming album?
Any chance the second guitarist makes an appearance? He’s a real asset live and they really lean on him.
