This is pretty bloody appalling. This coming from a record label who supported many seminal extreme metal bands when no-one else would, and thus, by association, were very anti-commercialist. I accept the point that Roadrunner are a commercial, money-making, company but such methods are disgraceful.
And her belly is nowhere even close to being pudgy, never mind requiring digital enhancement.
