Weathered is the third album by American rock band Creed, released on November 20, 2001. Some versions are enhanced CDs and include videos. It has been certified 6× platinum by the RIAA. The album entered the Billboard 200 at #1, selling 887,000 copies in its first week of release, and remained in the top spot for eight consecutive weeks, a record which Creed shares with The Beatles albums, The Anthology Series. It was also Creed's only Gold album in the UK. The album contains Creed's shortest ("Freedom Fighter"), longest ("Who's Got My Back?"), and the band's heaviest song ("Bullets"). The album sold more than 6 million copies in the U.S alone.
Weathered was the last Creed album before the band broke up in 2004 (though they later reunited in 2009). It is the only Creed album not to include bass guitarist Brian Marshall who left the band after comments he had made about Pearl Jam. As a result, Mark Tremonti played bass guitar for Weathered. Marshall has since rejoined the band.

Famous quotes containing the word Weathered:
“Lincoln, six feet one in his stocking feet,
The lank man, knotty and tough as a hickory rail,
Whose hands were always too big for white-kid gloves,
Whose wit was a coonskin sack of dry, tall tales,
Whose weathered face was homely as a plowed field.”
—Stephen Vincent Benét (1898–1943)
