Best Of Ten Years After, The - Ten Years After

Advantages: Good lyrics, strong vocals
Disadvantages: None

...I had the pleasure of hearing "Alive" during school. Or rather, in a sort of detention… Back then the music prompted something in me. Alive… Was I? What a question to ask yourself in puberty! After a few more years nostalgia kicked in, and I bought the Ten album then. "Black" in particular got my attention, as well as "Porch". Both songs are heartbreaking and seem remarkably personal for a band, which makes a lot of noise. Lyrically strong, and Eddie’s voice going through into your core, gives for an excellent CD....

...After hearing "Why Does my Heart Feel So Bad", and absolutely adoring it, I decided to actually buy the album, and it was certainly a good choice.

A classic album.... Read review

After about 9 years together, Creed split up after releasing three albums "my own prison", "human clay" and "weathered" selling over 30 million albums worldwide in that time. Better known over in the US, they were so successful leading to them being one of Americas biggest rock bands in over ten years before splitting last year. The Human Clay album was one of my personal favourites with such hits as "With Arms Wide Open", and "Higher", but the Weathered album was just as successful and gave us "My sacrifice", one of my all time favourite songs. The lead singer Scott Stapp's voice is genius, as so is the rest of the bands musical skills. Tremonti's guitar skills were sublime. After splitting Scott Stapp has now gone solo with his new...
