After a six-year hiatus, multi-platinum selling Orlando-based rock band Creed have returned with a new record tentatively titled Full Circle.

"We never felt like we weren't together," says frontman Scott Stapp. "We're not looking at this as a reunion. It's more of a rebirth."

Though they stayed in touch through holiday cards and the occasional phone call, the group refrained from recording together in order to, "explore other creative outlets and build the main priority in all of our lives, which is our family," says Stapp.

Indeed, the band has grown up quite a bit, as has Stapp's son Jagger, the muse behind their hit "With Arms Wide Open." "He's not a baby anymore," says the proud papa of the 10-year-old. Stapp now also has a 2-year-old named Milán.

Could another hit about his offspring be on the horizon? Quite possibly. He wrote a tune about his daughter as well, simply titled "Milan Song." "She's my twin soul, my light," he says of his little lady. "I do whatever she wants."

Stapp, who made the initial push for Creed to get back together, says it was awesome to see all the guys in one room again. "I said, 'I love you and if I've ever caused you any pain in your life forgive me.' And they said the same things right back."

With any bad blood dissolved, the guys got back to jamming and planning a summer tour. "We're not trying to stay in a certain place or conform to where we left off," says Stapp. "The music is fresh, edgy, raw, passionate, honest and it rocks."

"It's just the right time and we're all excited!"

Aw hell naw. Wish they and Nickleback can go somewhere and rot and leave us the hell alone.

Actually I'm glad to see them get back together. Unlike Nickelback, Creed actually has some talent!!!! I smell a hit coming!

And take Daughtry and that guy who American Idol last year who sounds like all of these guys. These acts should be prosecuted for Killing Rock N Roll.

Jesus....I thought we were done with this poser/Eddie Vedder wannabee.

I liked Creed. I liked the subtle religious messages in their music. Dude was a cool poet until he got fucked up with the wrong chick and was tryna be all budhist and shit.

This is the worst news in music world in awhile. I thought Nickelback filled that void very well of poor man's rock, but both bands existing at once might force an altered state in the universe.

This is strictly musical, I am sure they are all nice guys, well except for Stapp....

when i think of creed, i think of tramp stamps and men with greased nipples.

it's not a place my mind likes to go.

Oh, the carnage. Will their new music elevate them higher than their current place as my 3rd least favorite musical act ever? Look out, Ricky Martin and Backstreet Boys!

WHY!!!!

That's surprising. I guess he didn't like working at UPS with Tony M. and Damon.
