Musicians Least Like To Make A Comback?

[Cry Me A River]

Difficulty: No Micheal Jackson, no dead guys.


So the other day somebody made a crack about Creed and I thought, "Wow, somebody's still making Creed jokes". Which got me thinking - the only time you ever hear about Creed is as the butt of a joke or in a "worst bands in history" list.

So, is Creed the band least likely to make a comeback? Could anybody possibly ever take them seriously again?

We've seen some unlikely comebacks in the last several years, from Carlos Santana to Johnny Cash to The Dixie Chicks (though the Dixie Chicks really just had to wait for the political climate to shift). Obviously anything's possible but some bands seem completely irredeemable.

A lot rap/rock acts fall into the same category and seem very dated, like Limp Bizkit or Everlast. Could either ever be big again?

And what about Metallica? Are they done? St Anger was their worst selling album ever. Did all the negative publicity from Napster kill their career?

Who else could just never have another big hit, no matter what?
