     i think the song hide that everyone is talking about isnt from creed at all.  the vocals are pretty close, but the music just isnt right.  the production quality, the song progression, the distortion on the guitars...it just doesnt feel right at all.  also, even tho' it's a slower, darker song, most creed songs seem to have a powerful,  epic feel to them.  this one seems to make an attempt to go for that whisper to a wail sound that creed can have, but in my opinion, it falls pretty short of their typical quality. my guess is it's not legit, and if it is, i'm kinda disappointed.
  the song signs with the beeps has GOT to be creed.  they've always cited some harder bands as influences of theirs ( such as tool), and this feels like the band stretching a bit in that direction.  for some reason i think mark did most of this song, and i absolutely love it.  if this is another band i'd be shocked, and i'd buy their cd based on this song alone.
  anybody feel the same way as me?
