The Web Sheriff response is obviously automated, since the album art was never posted on this site. When does he get charged and fined as a spammer?

I don't understand why anyone wouldn't want the cover art for their upcoming album circulated on the web. It's free promotion and there's no way that posting something like that, if it was even posted, would cut into artist/ label revenues. I think this Web Sheriff is a little trigger happy, maybe hoping to catch a little extra kick back from the label for being "extra vigilant"....

That said, I really like the cover. It's been way too long since these guys have released an album.
