Skingraft demo

as i was driving to chicago today and listening to Oi! Oi! Music by Skin Graft on a cd i made, i thought (again) "is anyone ever gonna find this fuckin demo? this shits great- raw as fuck, primal, simple and melodic but aggressive, like it should be" - i also thought, could i pull this off as a cover in my band that doesn't exist but that's some other bullshit altogether - who could be in a band with a purist asshole like me anyways haha. Well, anyways, today i saw online that their demo is fucking finally going to see the light of day on a 7"!!! more info as it gets closer to release....
