Yep. On the money about Eddie Vedder And then people accused Creed of ripping off Pearl Jam, just because Creed associated with Christians and did more family friendly music (that was massively successful)

interestingly enough, Mark Tremonti went on to equal success in Alter Bridge. And as for Scott Stapp? He has dealt with a lot of personal issues and demons, but he's putting out his first album in 6 years and is going to play Frank Sinatra in a movie about Ronald Reagan.

I just never understood the comparison. Radio friendly rock pop vs emo low fi grunge...it was a stupid comparison to make

Interestingly enough I found this article... https://www.rollingstone.com/culture/culture-news/scott-stapp-threatened-to-kill-president-obama-claims-singers-wife-192579/amp/
