I agree with you man, this album is just for pure marketing, more obvious can't be, the band has sellout.
but the fanboys always refuse that, they don't have the slightest idea that marketing is the worst thing you can do to your music.
they're going to understand until you listen to more underground music like Stratovarius, Cannibal Corpse, Angra, Iron Maiden, Haggard, Slayer, Kraner, Judas Priest, Deep Purple and more.
maybe they realize that commercial music is the worst, you have to make music for music, not for corporate who are just looking to be famous and to do something that does not fit.
