10 Years Week: Beautiful

(antiMusic) After spending the better part of two years on the road supporting their debut album, The Autumn Effect, 10 Years went back into the studio, this time with acclaimed producer Rick Parasher (Pearl Jam, Nickelback, Soundgarden). You'll hear the results this week when 10 Years' sophomore album, Division, hits stores. Forget what you thought you knew about 10 Years, Division takes them on a different musical journey. We spoke with drummer Brian Vodinh to get the lowdown on his favorite tracks from the album.

Here he is with today's song: Beautiful - This song was one of the first ideas that came up when we first started the DIVISION writing process and probably the last song to get finished! The "just as beautiful as you are, it's so pitiful what you are" lyric came about from me catching a glimpse of some random reality T.V show and seeing some amazingly beautiful girls showcasing their shallowness and ignorance. The song is basically our stance on the A-typical Hollywood bimbo type.

This was a song that was almost thrown away early on in the writing process because the rest of the band just simply did not like it. Somehow it stuck around and the more everyone lived with it, the more everyone began to like it. Luckily for us we never followed our original impulse and canned this tune.
