Go say that to the designers at polycount and ca.org, you will be <b>warmly</b> received. Designers HATED working on the tools available at the time where 3D modelling was concerned. Now they have a lot more freedom and are simply loving the shaders :D

My first proper exposure to it came from this song by 65daysofstatic http://www.musicuploader.org/MUSIC/4607781220247677.mp3 utterly fantastic band by the way. I now want to get a copy.

I plan on emailing the band with the question, since I can't find a definitive answer from the big G. I like to imagine (given that these are all smart, but nonetheless super-roady biker fellows) that the credits were intentionally listed as Chitlins, Whiskey, and Skirt; being as they were likely the only motivation for writing music (particularly this song) in the first place. ^_~ @KruddMan: The band *was* the Gone Jackals, from all I can find online.
