Subject: Which Rock Band Was Bigger In 2002: Creed OR Blink-182?
Written By: Videl Satan on 06/17/20 at 9:09 pm
And which band did you prefer?
I'm going with Creed by far as I loved their music as a little kid and they were one of the first rock bands I ever got into as a kid and I didn't even know who Blink-182 even was back then. As far who I prefer, I still prefer listening to Creed (because their music appeals to me more) as I hate Blink-182's music and have never been a fan of their music.

By 2002 I think both of them were past their prime popularity. But I say Creed was bigger. They had a lot of songs I remember. Blink 182 had one that I remember- Small Things.

They both peaked in 2000 but, I'll have to say that Creed was a more popular band in general.

I think this is when Creed started to become a joke... Blink 182 had their detractors but definitely not on the level as Creed.

Creed was bigger in the Y2K era, but by 2003, Blink-182 was bigger, whilst Creed was a joke.

Among teenagers? Blink 182.
Among the general public? Creed.

It's hard to say. As others mentioned their peak was around 2000. In 2002 it was more about bands like Sum 41 and Jimmy Eat World.

Well considering that, I'd have to go with Blink-182, given their importance and relevance to early 2000s youth culture, something Creed never really had. As far as being mediocre overplayed music, they were huge in 1999/2000, but by 2001, Nickelback sort of replaced them as the go-to "generic bland butt-rock" band to make fun of. What this basically meant is that you could absolutely listen to Blink-182 in 2002 and it was still cool, but Creed, well, I would say were on the level Limp Bizkit was by this point, it was something people were trying to move away from.

Yeah I was kinda thinking the same, granted I might be a bit biased due to my profile picture haha. I honestly thought Blink was the "huge rock band that all the youth listened too" and that would kinda outweigh the influence Creed had back then.
