10 Years is an American alternative metal band, formed in Knoxville, Tennessee in 2000. The band features members frontman Jesse Hasek, guitarist Ryan "Tater" Johnson, guitarist Matt Wantland, bassist Lewis "Big Lew" Cosby, and drummer Brian Vodinh. The band was signed to Universal Republic in 2005 and soon after released their major label debut, 'The Autumn Effect' which featured the smash singles "Wasteland" and "Through the Iris." Their sophomore effort, 'Division' was released on May 13, 2008.
Guitarist Matt Wantland of the band 10 Years was kind enough to call in to CleveRock Music Portal headquarters after their kickass performance at Rock on the Range in Columbus the previous weekend to talk about that show, the band's brand new album release, 'Division' (released just eight days before the interview on 5.13.08), the pressures of living up to high standards on their follow up album and avoiding the "sophomore slump," why 10 Years choses to "go deep" with their lyrics in an industry full of generic and meaningless jabber, the success of their debut single "Wasteland," the band's upcoming summer on Linkin Park's Projekt Revolution Tour, and much more. Enjoy!

Billy Howerdel is the founding member, guitarist, songwriter, and producer for the band A Perfect Circle. Howerdel functioned as a guitar technician for Tool during the tour and recording of 'Ænima,' working with Maynard James Keenan, whom he met in 1992. During this time, Howerdel played Keenan some of his songs, and Keenan offered his vocals if Howerdel ever decided to form a band. Despite originally considering a female singer, Howerdel would eventually accept Keenan's offer. In 1999, Howerdel founded A Perfect Circle, and invited Keenan to join in as the singer.
Billy Howerdel's new band Ashes Divide have officially inked a deal with Island Records and released 'their' debut album on April 8, 2008. Howerdel handled nearly all the instruments in the studio for the release, sans the drums for which he recruited session-man Josh Freese.
Ashes Divide lone band member Billy Howerdel calls in to the CleveRock Music Portal hotline to discuss his recent appearance at Rock on the Range, his new album, 'Keeping Telling Myself It's Alright,' the challenges of stepping up into the spotlight as a solo artist, his other project, A Perfect Circle, his recording process, and the challenge of spreading the word about a new act today.

Richard Patrick is a Cleveland area native who graduated from Bay Village High School in 1987. After a chance meeting with Trent Reznor in a Cleveland music store, Patrick landed a gig as guitarist in Reznor's live incarnation of Nine Inch Nails from 1989 to 1991. His only recorded contribution can be heard at the end of "Sanctified" on Pretty Hate Machine. He chose to leave the band during the recording of The Downward Spiral in 1993.
Following his departure from Nine Inch Nails, Richard Patrick formed his own industrial rock band, Filter, with Brian Liesegang who left the band after the recording of the band's first album, 1995's 'Short Bus.' 4 years later in 1999, Richard Patrick released Filter's second album, 'Title of Record' with help from guitarist Geno Lenardo. 'The Amalgamut,' Filter's third album was released 2002, with Richard Patrick canceling most of the supporting tour to check in to rehab for his alcoholism problem which had been plaguing him for years. An experience where he drunkenly fought with flight attendants on a plane after removing his clothes inspired Filter's arguably biggest single, "Take a Picture."
During a break from Filter, Richard Patrick formed Army of Anyone with former Stone Temple Pilots members Robert and Dean DeLeo along with drummer Ray Luzier. The band released a stellar self-titled album and offered a fan-friendly priced concert tour, but were still met with a luke-warm reception.
After a 5-year hiatus, Richard Patrick has announced Filter will be releasing a new record in 2008, entitled Anthems for the Damned. Collaborators on the record include Josh Freese (A Perfect Circle, Nine Inch Nails), Wes Borland (Black Light Burns, Limp Bizkit), and John 5 (Marilyn Manson, Rob Zombie). The album was released on May 13, 2008.
Last seat on the bus
Who you gonna trust
Which one do you follow
Last seat on the bus
Don't make such a fuss
This much should make you hollow
'Cause every time you make yourself the reason
Is everytime you make yourself between...
Yeah
Yeah, this is a American cliche
American, American
Get on the bus
Yeah, this is a American cliche
American, American
Get on the bus
First seat on the bus
Who you gonna trust
Which one do you may follow
First seat on the bus
Don't make such a fuss
Which one do you make hollow
Now every time you make your friend the reason
And every time you make your friend beaten...yeah
Yeah, this is a American cliche
American, American
Get on the bus
Yeah, this is a American cliche
American, American
Get on the bus
You want a way to be the same
You want a way to be the same
You want a way to be the same
Oh no
