Your weekly Creed warning. The new album:
Stapp says Creed came up with the song "Full Circle" during its first session playing together and hope to release that track as the album’s first single, perhaps by late June. Other pending song titles include "A Thousand Faces," "Slow Suicide" and "Don’t Give Up," and the frontman says there’s "a lot of reflection" in the new material, much of which focuses on the "resolution" Stapp and his bandmates have found between each other and in their own lives.
"It’s not a hopeless, complaining record," Stapp says. "It’s telling stories, but it’s also rocking out, man. We’re rocking harder now with some of the songs than we ever have. It’s from a different place and a different type of reflection and a different level of maturity, but we’re a rock band, so there’s still that brashness. There’s a confidence and a swagger that I think we only feel collectively. Our music is fresh and still very connected to who we are and the sound we have, but it’s also taken a natural evolution."
I swear to Jeebus, if I didn’t know any better I would have sworn that that quote came from Spinal Tap.

Dear, do you often think of me
As you overlook the sea
Do I qualify as dearly departed or am I
That sucker in the sky
That fall guy for the first & the last time?
Juliette, I thought we had agreed
Now I know why you let me take the lead
Up here in heaven without you
It is hell knowing that your health
Will keep you out of here
For many, many years

Hey, Syl, what’s a connection between the Dolls & Sparks?
I like the way iPod! looks like Pod with Spanish exclamation points.
I haven’t played in a while:
1. Jose Gonzalez “Stay In The Shade”
2. Modest Mouse “Doin’ The Cockroach” (Live in Seattle)
3. Brian Jonestown Massacre “Miss June ‘75″
4. Palace Brothers “O Lord Are You In Need?”
5. The Mountain Goats “Quetzalcoatal Comes Through”
6. Iron & Wine “Dead Man’s Will” (Live in PDX)
7. Brian Jonestown Massacre “Outback”
8. Circus Lupus “Marbles”
9. The Mountain Goats ” Alpha Rats Nest”
10. Bonnie “Prince” Billy “In My Mind” (Live in Ljubljana)
I don’t know how my 60 gig iPod (which is full) can grab 2 mountain goat and 2 brian jonestown massacre songs in a “random” sample of 10. Those two bands do not comprise 40% of my collection. The Circus Lupus I can get (it’s the only song by Circus Lupus on the iPod) but I think the “shuffle” feature is a bust.
