Mainstream rock band, Creed, has decided to call it a day.

The decision was made months ago, upon the reunion of Mark Tremonti and Scott Stapp after a year's hiatus. "We had gotten together two or three times and nothing happened," Tremonti explained. "We got our instruments and played, but neither of us was taking it seriously. We were just running in circles. There wasn't a vibe like on the previous records. It felt very joblike. We knew that it would take us years to get a record out."

Tremonti and Stapp were clashing creatively, and personal issues between Stapp and the band had created a growing rift.

Creed had been together for nearly a decade and sold over 24 million records. For the full story, click this MTV.com link.
