Godsmack

Godsmack originally comprised vocalist Sully Erna (a devout Wiccan), guitarist Tony Rambola, bassist Robbie Merrill, and drummer Tommy Stewart. After debuting in 1997 with All Wound Up, Godsmack signed with Universal, which in 1998 reissued the LP as a self-titled effort with a handful of new tracks; at that point Stewart -- who'd left the group in mid-1997 and was replaced by drummer Joe d'Arco -- returned to the lineup on a permanent basis. The band's audience built slowly but surely, and Godsmack was certified gold in 1999, the same year the group was invited to join the Ozzfest tour; by the next year, it had sold over three million copies, thanks to hit singles like "Whatever" and "Keep Away." In 2000, the group again played Ozzfest, and released their second proper album, Awake, that fall. In January 2001, Awake earned the band a Grammy nomination for Best Rock Instrumental Performance for the song "Vampires," and by March, it had sold two million copies. Hot on the heels of their continuing success, their single "I Stand Alone" propelled the hype of the movie The Scorpion King in March 2002. As the single maintained Godsmack's strong presence at modern rock radio into the summer, founding member Tommy Stewart left the band in June. The David Bottrill-produced (Peter Gabriel, Tool, Mudvayne) album Faceless appeared in April 2003. It also marked the debut of ex-Amen drummer Shannon Larkin.

Godsmack are an American Grammy-nominated hard rock/heavy metal band from Massachusetts formed in 1996. They have sold over 10 million albums in the US alone and sold over 11 million worldwide. They have also had two #1 albums ("Faceless" and "IV"). Along with major-American success in their albums.

OneRepublic

OneRepublic was formed in 2004 in Colorado Springs, Colorado, by singer, pianist, and guitarist Ryan Tedder and lead guitarist Zach Filkins, OneRepublic quickly moved to Los Angeles. Adding keyboardist Drew Brown, bassist and cellist Brent Kutzle, and drummer Eddie Fisher, OneRepublic signed with Sony BMG's Columbia label, but left the imprint for undisclosed reasons before releasing anything. Re-signing to Interscope through hip-hop superstar producer Timbaland's custom label Mosley Music Group (Tedder has worked as a song doctor on some of Timbaland's projects; he also co-wrote and produced a song on Hilary Duff's surprisingly fine 2007 album Dignity), OneRepublic finally made their public bow when their mentor remixed their Keane-like ballad "Apologize" for his spring 2007 album Timbaland Presents Shock Value; the band's original version was also released to radio and online as their first single.

OneRepublic has been the number one band on MySpace and has been in MySpace Music's Top Artists since summer 2006, with over 12 million total song plays and counting, and now in turn will be releasing their debut album at the fall of 2007.

The first single released was "Mercy". The second single off the album is "Apologize". It will be released in its original format, unlike the previous version on Timbaland's album, Shock Value.[1] On September 13, 2007 the video of "Apologize" was broadcasted on several internet sites.
