The scene of the cover is set in the near future,  where human beings are rounded up and placed into tubes, which take the  soul, to be placed in the \u201cnew\u201d human beings, complete A.I. human  replicas, and here is where the album begins\u2026 we hope you will join us  down the dark path that is The Final Cull!\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"yiv7869239249MsoNormal\">\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"yiv7869239249MsoNormal\">ONE MACHINE is also pleased to reveal the track listing for the two upcoming album versions.<\/p>\n<p class=\"yiv7869239249MsoNormal\">\u00a0<\/p>\n<p id=\"yui_3_16_0_1_1439184876735_14190\" class=\"yiv7869239249MsoNormal\">The Final Cull Track Listing:<\/p>\n<p class=\"yiv7869239249MsoNormal\">Digital Release:<\/p>\n<p class=\"yiv7869239249MsoNormal\">01.
