UMUR
"Skin the Living" is the second demo release by US, Wisconsin based death metal act Jungle Rot. The demo was independently released in 1995. Jungle Rot formed in 1992 and released two 1995 demos before being signed by Pure Death Records for the release of their 1996 full-length studio album "Skin the Living" (which is actually a reissue of this demo bearing the same title).

As this demo features the exact same material as the 1996 album reissue through Pure Death Records, many reviews already exists of the album version, so I´ll keep it brief, and say that the 10 tracks on the 24:54 minutes long demo is old school death metal with both hardcore and thrash metal roots, generally featuring a heavy mid-paced groove. The sound production is decent considering that this is a demo release, and it´s no wonder that Pure Death Records opted to release the demo as a full-length studio album. It´s fans of artists like Obituary and Six Feet Under which will appreciate the music on this demo. A 3 - 3.5 star (65%) rating is warranted.
