05.01.08 OK, apparently the Table's own Cristopher Cichocki hasn't yet out-warmed his welcome over at Startling Moniker. Just after the "I told you this album was fucking awesome" review they gave of "Elemental Shift", they called Cichocki back in for questioning. Apparently, last night Cichocki was blindfold and taken to an undisclosed dark, damp, and sweltering hot room where he was then strapped to a lie-detector and drilled with question after question with no regard for privacy. Luckily, everything went well and Cichocki returned with only minor wear and tear. |
