Linkin Park's "Hybrid Theory" sold 8 million + copies.

Not to mention it was better.

Wouldn't take much to be better than Creed. however, I was just being a sarcastic bastard. Selling 15 Mill over your career means dick these days.

Yeah, but that was pretty much in the last few years. Human Clay itself sold over 10.

Besides, 1) we're talking about Rock in the last decade, not anyone ever. And 2) you completely ignored my point on their singles.

I'm not saying they're defniitely the biggest. I'm saying it's not unreasonable.

1) We're talking about rock in the last decade, where a million sales means a lot less than it used to. Í'm not even factorin in longterm sales from such artists as Elvis, Pink Floyd, Aerosmith, so I don't understand how you brought "anyone ever" into this.

2) Show me a few dozen rock bands who were marketed as aggressively as Creed, and we'll talk about this point.

I'm saying that it is unreasonable.

TheJShow does not have that much rep yet (10+)
I liked Creed, but I'll be unbiased as I can.

My Own Prison was a great album, various sounds, cool riffs, etc. but it got nowhere near the exposure Human Clay and Weathered did.
Human Clay and Weathered were cool CD's, except when you listened to them over and over like me lol

but MOP was definately a great CD, and it showed that they got lazy after that for the other two CD's, and that once they had "made it" into the mainstream they gave up creatively.

As for the past decade, Creed would be up there in terms of most popular, but not the "best"
