Higher


"Higher" is a rock song by Creed, released on August 31, 1999 as the lead single from their second studio album, Human Clay. It became the band's breakthrough hit, reaching number 7 on the US Billboard Hot 100 and topping both the Modern Rock and Mainstream Rock charts. For electric guitarists, the song offers a rewarding mix of melodic clean passages and driven rock riffs, making it a strong choice for players looking to explore dynamic contrast and Mark Tremonti's signature layered guitar style.

  • "Higher" spent 57 weeks on the US Billboard Hot 100, the longest chart run of any Creed song.
  • The song topped both the Modern Rock and Mainstream Rock charts for a then-record 17 weeks.
  • The track runs approximately 5 minutes and 16 seconds, giving guitarists extended sections to explore its dynamics.

Amp

Marshall JCM800

The definitive rock amp of the 1980s. The JCM800's single-channel, all-tube design produces a natural, harmonically rich overdrive at high volumes. Every hard rock and metal guitar sound from that era ran through one of these.
