| 2.5 average | Deder545 | August 27th 10 | Even with a few good songs sprinkled in including the powerful album closer 'Fade Into (The Ocean)', Feeding the Wolves ultimately feels like a significant step back from Division and The Autumn Effect. By focusing solely on making their sound 'heavier,' Jesse Hasek and company have made a record that loses track of what made 10 Years more interesting and intricate than most mainstream rock bands, choosing instead to follow a loud, somewhat boring nu-metal approach that does not change much from one song to the next.

| 2.5 average | Britch2tiger | January 26th 16 | A rule that I have for ratings is where there's (at minimum) ONE good song, an album can at least be in the 3-spectrum. A 3-spectrum album represents to me as an album that (humbly) admits to being imperfect. Where there's glimpses of potential in each track, or one track track worth acknowledging, a 3/5 album shows that a band at least HAS potential and enough creativity to linger. Where some people might find this rule to be odd to have such a low bar of acceptability, I see this as a reminder that most of the potential greats had to have failed a great # of times before being able to create something worthwhile (just not now). Regrettably, this is not one of those albums. Hell, track 8 is the epitome of filler...

| 0.0 | Scamp4553 | November 12th 12 | 10 Years' worst album features all of the radio rock cliches that don't usually show up in the genre that 10 Years plays in.

| 4.0 excellent | TheSupernatural | July 20th 12 | A bit more radio friendly than usual from 10 Years, but that's not necessarily bad. After another listen or two, Feeding the Wolves really grew on me.

| 3.0 good | emirparkreiner7 | October 7th 10 | 10 Years shows great improvement on "Feeding The Wolves" by (almost) ditching their obsession with trying to sound like Tool/A Perfect Circle. Much of the album consists of energetic hard rockers such as "The Wicked Ones" and "Waking Up The Ghost" which fit them much better than brooding introspection. A healthy dose of lyrical cynicism is used on "Chasing The Rapture", "Dead In The Water", and the catchy albeit nu-metal single "Shoot It Out," forming the overall theme of the album (liars, wolves, etc... listen to "Now Is The Time" and you'll get the idea). Without trying to sound like a meathead, the slower numbers do damage to an otherwise enjoyable record. While "Fix Me" is strong and impactful, "One More Day" and "Don't Fight It" are passable alternative rock songs (and are cheap second singles), but they don't ruin all the fun. The most tragic part of "Feeding The Wolves" is its disastrous final "Fade Into (The Ocean)," a blundering Tool wannabe that after a promising intro chokes for over six minutes. 10 Years have crafted some enjoyable modern hard rock on this album, but I hope "Feeding The Wolves" proves successful enough to keep them alive for another round.

| 2.0 poor | zaraki11 | September 23rd 10 | where to start? this album is wrong at so many levels. Compared to Division and The Autumn Effect this one is not what i was expecting....the only good songs on this album are chasing the rapture, dead in the water, one more day and now is the time. other wise the rest of the songs just so wrong.....meaningless lyrics with meaningless beats and tunes.....it's like they were out to prove a meaningless point. Don't get me wrong I'm a sucker for these guys but lets face it Feeding the Wolves pales in comparison to Division and The Autumn Effect. In my opinion it rates below Into the Half Moon and Killing All That Holds You. with regards to the type of music 10 Years has made its fans love listening to and love their music, Feeding The Wolves is an EPIC FAIL
Division Rules biiiig time
