Not sure why they named the article the way they did, since it had nothing to do with the charts, but a good read anyway.
i have no doubt that this record will sell better than 'Stomp', 'Vol.8' & WCFYA for todays standards, 'Stomp' only sold 100.000 copies and 'Vol.8' only 80.000 in the first months or 1st year in a time before illegal downloads decreased sales.

No, no, no...kids...Joey IS missing the balls or whatever to sing like real men do. And he is saying - he is not afraid to say - that also in the interviews. He can say that because he feels safe in the band right now...
...or he is a mean bugger who wants to remind the other guys that they replaced him with "The Voice of ANTHRAX"...

I've bought one copy. I know that my friend bought another one.....but the rest of the guys - at least here - have been downloading the album for free...

Well Belladonna is 100 percent whey this album is getting all of the hype it is. If Don Nelson was on vocals it wouldn't have gotten 1/2 the publicity.
"Anthrax returns with a new vocalist named Don Nelson" - That wouldn't really go over too well with any old school Anthrax fans. They would just laugh and be like 'oh man yet another singer?? wtf' and that would have been it.
Its funny all of the horrible decisions this band has made over the past 20 years. Now Joey comes back out of desperation as their last resort and it's the best business decision they have made in the past 20 years.
Fuckin idiots they are when it comes to business. But I guess finally something seems to be working out for them... hopefully Joey gets a bigger piece of the pie than those guys!
