As much shit as Creed gets, they're still pretty damn good and unique. I blame most of the hate on memes and bandwagoners. Daughtry was ok, but so much of his music started sounding the same lol. Both were overplayed on the radio for the longest time. Now I barely every hear Creed on the radio where I live. I know their music videos are overly symbolic lmao. And the lead singer was an asshole of a drunk.
