Knoxville, TN's 10 Years formed in 2002 around vocalist Jesse Hasek, drummer Brian Vodinh, guitarists Matt Wantland and Tater, and bassist Lewis Cosby. The band released the Killing All That Holds You EP themselves a year later, and started to develop a local following for their Tool and Deftonesinfluenced altmetal. Killing All That Holds You was eventually expanded with four additional studio tracks and some live acoustic material. 10 Years signed with Republic/Universal, and in August 2005 their majorlabel debut appeared. Autumn Effect was produced by Josh Abraham (Staind, StaticX), and set up a 10 Years tour with Disturbed that ran through the fall.
