Review title: Formulaic And UNBELIEVABLY Derivative
Product review: Anyone who claims this CD is in any way "original", "profound", or even "releasable" should be forced to undergo psychiatric evaluation. Why? Let's take a look:1. This is an EXACT copy of Creed's previous album, Human Clay. Want proof? Listen to "My Sacrifice" and "Higher" in sequence. They're the SAME song; same hook, same bridge, same voice, same quasi-religious lyrical bent.2. They're Matchbox 20 with a harder edge.3. The lyrics are facile and certainly not "profound"; a grade four might have written "My Sacrifice", for example.4. If you have ANY knowledge of music history, you'll know where their roots and influences lie, and how they blatantly ripped off all of their roots and influences (ex: The Grateful Dead).In Brief: The Creed Formula As Follows:Lyrics With Religious Undertones + Lots Of Guitar Thumping + Gravelly Voice = Human Clay, Weathered, My Own Prison.
