Album Review

Originally released on the band's own label, Creed's debut album, My Own Prison, was re-released on Wind-Up Records in a remixed form. The remix was designed to accentuate the group's powerful post-grunge sound so it could find a crossover audience. Evidently, the gambit was successful, since the album became a platinum hit shortly after the title track was issued as a single. Creed doesn't have an original or distinctive sound -- they basically fall into the category of post-Seattle bands who temper their grunge with a dose of Live earnestness -- but they work well within their boundaries. At their best, they are a solid post-grunge band, grinding their riffs out with muscle; at their worst, they are simply faceless. The best moments of My Own Prison suggest they'll be able to leave post-grunge anonymity behind and develop their own signature sound. [My Own Prison is also available in an import release.] ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide

My personal Favorite from Creed.Set a record,debut with four sinlges.Torn,My Own Prison,Whats This Life For,One.Has a good sound to it,a different sound.Stapps vocals were sounds better.Seriously,if you listen to his lastest stuff and this you can tell the difference.
