Just commenting on that album art; that's all! Although I did give a quick listen to the lead single, and I wasn't impressed, actually. Just sounded like some white guy trying to rap to what sounds like the Lavender Town theme.
I wasn't saying anything about your claim. Again, I was originally just commenting on that rather ridiculous artwork!
My favorites so far: 1. Kina Grannis- Elements 2. The Fray- Helios 3. Crosses- +++ Just doing top 3 for now, I have a lot to catch up on.

The best album of 2014 is Body Count's Manslaughter. This album hits hard. If you love heavy, bold, aggressive, adrenaline pumping rap metal you will love this album.
Its not really nu metal. Its rap metal without being nu metal. It's a mix of thrash metal and hardcore punk with hip hop vocals. It's a good album. You should give it a listen. You might like it.
