audio quality of this upload is really bad :(

@Revelatus What better reason to go out and buy their cd then! I don't think I intended it to be bad quality though, I uploaded this a few years back and I don't remember if I tried to make it sound good or anything. Probably didn't really know what I was doing with encoding quality and windows movie maker, to be honest.

@Griesmayer Surely a more relevant question would be: Why does other album art not contain breasts?

[noodle6491]

@lagginswag It's a speech from the 1976 film Network, by Howard Beale (played by Peter Finch).

@noodle6491 hmmm, i guess i stand corrected :) !

[noodle6491]

@opmk1ll3r But it's not even real... Also far more graphic/sexual nudity can easily be found on youtube and the whole internet - so perhaps the problem is the child on the internet, not the album art itself. I'm not going to tell you how to raise children, but I think that it's perfectly natural for an 8-year old to know about the human body and would be fine with him/her viewing art containing the human body in a non-sexual way, such as this.

@noodle6491 trust me, it's my personal opinion, and i really think 8 year olds shouldnt be exposed to nudity :) just sayin!

@possibleninja Now now, there's no need for that name-calling. I realise this may be youtube (and so a villainous hive of idiocy and vitriol) but this is my corner of youtube. Also, who cares about genre boundaries? This song has chunky downtuned riffs with tons of distortion and smashing drums. Sounds pretty metal to me. Perhaps it may also be post-rock, but the band definitely have a tendency to go for metal too (except some of the new album, that stuff's pretty chilled out).

@opmk1ll3r You may have also noticed that they're cartoon breasts, and not even portrayed that realistically. Also I'm pretty sure most 8 year olds will know what breasts are, and will not be traumatized by this album cover.

[noodle6491]

@opmk1ll3r I hope the album cover didn't put you off the music! I would've expected anyone viewing this would've been mature enough to not be offended by part of the human body which is seen everywhere - in art, on other people, in films/tv (be it in non-erotic or erotic ways) - and doesn't have to be seen as forbidden.

@Greshapa This isn't metal dipshit. You get negative vibes? Maybe because sometimes negative expression is just as necessary as positive expression. Embrace all emotions and stop running from aggression you pussy.

The band We Made God used this quote in their song "II" too as well. lol
