My opinions on the band and their music are well reflected and remain unchanged. ORIGINAL STORY: Growing with an album was once art in itself. Such art is abandoned in preference to over…

Craving some of that now old school rap-core stuff that we all listened to in the late 90s and mid-2000s? Oh, don’t lie, you totally downloaded hours of that breakthrough genre off of Napster (the legal one, of course!)
