Division

Additional Division Information

"We could have met our deadlines and gone into the studio in January," clarifies singer Jesse Hasek. "But we decided early on that we weren't going to allow ourselves to run through the motions. We felt like we really needed to challenge ourselves and do something fresh and different. And that took a little longer than we expected."

As it turned out, Division was well worth the wait. Musically eclectic, technically adept and emotionally poignant, the songs shatter preconceptions, revealing a tapestry of previously unexplored influences and a larger array of stunning melodies. Like The Autumn Effect, the new album is filled with enveloping textures and heart-stopping dynamics, but the arrangements are more developed and the songwriting more mature, revealing a cavalcade of styles including metal, hard rock, punk, alternative pop and even classical.

What Customers Say About Division:

you owe it to yourself to check this one out. If you like Chevelle, Taproot, Tool, Karnivool, etc. Why are you reading this and not listening to the album. It's that good.

Jesse's voice at times sounds amazingly like Aaron Lewis from Staind. Check out some of the harder songs like "11:00am" which has almost a metalcore quality. It is well produced, vocals are not overly loud and the sonic quality of the guitars comes through on the digital mp3's.

Just because I enjoy the harder tracks and there are quite the number of ballads on this album. Or "Actions & Motives" which also has punk sensibilities. Overall this album is very listenable, but I do find myself clicking past the slower tracks.

The other reviews that mention this albums production quality have spoken the truth. If you like hard rock with good vocals than you will like 10 Years.Not a 5. Overall a great cross-over album and fans of several styles can find something to like from this band.

If you like Staind or other hard rock, post-grunge bands you will LOVE this album. The hard melodic riffs mixed with the pretty vocals make for a nice contrast.

Just great work by these guys. Bought the CD because a friend told me it was great, and i was more than impressed. I never skip a song in this CD, its a great album to listen to at any time.

Definitely a CD you should buy. There was a few songs I did not like but the good ones out weigh the bad ones. This CD is Very Good. I bought it for 2 songs and I listen to 3/4 of it.

Anyways, I was very excited when I heard about this album. Every song follows the V1-C-V2-C-BR-C-C pattern. P.S. This is 10 Years' fourth album, technically. If you can get a hold of the special version with the two extra tracks.do it; They're my favorites on the album, actually. The main problem with this album is that the song structure is very *yawn*.

The first time I listened through this album, I absolutely loved it and I still love it. If you've never heard "The Autumn Effect," but that first. If you liked "The Autumn Effect," I'd suggest this album. I love the subject matter, music, and, of course, the vocals of Jesse Hasek.The album is diverse enough sound-wise to keep me interested the entire time through. Thankfully, the vocals and the lyrics are good enough to cover up the boring structure of the songs.

First two aren't that well known at all.and they changed lead singers after their first album. It get very boring after awhile. As much as I love this album, however, I think "The Autumn Effect" is much, much better overall. I have been a fan of 10 Years for a long time. In my eyes, there is only one weak track on the album and that's "Picture Perfect." Other than that, the album is solid.
