I saw that Creed thing too but I think it's one disc of music and then a DVD disc. I love that a band who only released 3 albums has a greatest hits record, especially when none of those hits could be considered by anybody with taste "great."

Wasn't their choice, though: they left Epic Records, so Epic cashed in by releasing it without the band's permission.

The greatest hits is only 1 cd, the other disc is a dvd, hopefully of Scott Stapp's drunken "performance" in Chicago.

amg review......pearl jam again


Review by Stephen Thomas Erlewine
Creed weren't just one of many two-album wonders of the post-grunge late '90s, they were the biggest of the two-album wonders, selling more records and crashing harder than any other their peers. All the while they produced unflappably earnest heavy rock — music that sounded like Pearl Jam, only not nearly as much fun. They also traded on Pearl Jam's unfortunate tendency to place sheer emotion and sound over hooks, and since Creed wasn't as powerful or interesting musically as the Seattle quartet, that meant that their albums could sound rather samey in the long haul. Nevertheless, their sincerity resonanted among mainstream listeners irritated that Pearl Jam went weird after Vs, and with 2000's "With Arms Wide Open," they had a power-ballad hit with universal appeal that helped break them through to an even wider audience than they had before. It, naturally, is the literal centerpiece of Creed's 2004 Greatest Hits, arriving in the middle of the 13-song album. Since it remains their biggest and best song, it's only appropriate that it has such a prominent position on this album, because a listen to the entire album reveals that the rest of their material hasn't aged all that well. With hindsight, their material seems even more generic than it did when it ruled the radio, because it evokes a hazy past instead of representing the present. Still, for those listeners that want to dig back to the halciyon year or two where Creed were one of the biggest bands in the land, Greatest Hits is the way to do it, since it has all of their charting hits, minus the minor radio hit cover of "Riders on the Storm" from the 2000 Doors tribute album Stoned Immaculate. It may not be timeless music, but Greatest Hits does gather all the noteworthy Creed tracks for those that care. [The initial pressings also contained a bonus DVD, containing all of Creed's music videos, along with some live performances. Unfortunately, the menu interface is not well-designed — it is only possible to play the videos individually, there is no "Play All" function.]

Watch out, we're only encouraging bad artists to come out with Greatest Hits albums. A few that are in the works...

Clay Aiken
Kriss Kross
SR-71
and finally...
Ron Artest :) (he'll have plenty of time to release albums now that he has the whole year off)

If I ever become a famous musician I'm going to release one album and then release a greatest hits album right after, changing only the track order. 8)
