Jungle Rot

Chicago's Jungle Rot has been around for a decade or so, following the usual underground route of demos, albums on various labels, lineup changes, etc., through the course of their career. By the band's own admission, their style is less focused on gore or technicality than on straightforward, catchy riffs and rhythms. As such, albums such as Fueled By Hate occasional lapse into repetition, while on the other hand their approach does lend itself to more memorable songs.
