Jumping off of Renfield's post in another thread, let's try this:  What is you favorite demo?

Tough call, but I'm going with Blake Babies "Rain" demo:

“The fear of death follows from the fear of life. A man [or woman] who lives fully is prepared to die at any time.”
Variously credited to Mark Twain or Edward Abbey.

    Vision of Disorders demo tape.  THAT was awesome.  Long Island hardcore with feeling and anger.  Man were those guys good.  Then I heard the studio version and gagged...

    Look up the song Take them Out and you'll see.

    Ian Thornley's (Big Wreck, Thornley) MySpace demos. A few of them ended up (in a much more produced state) on his solo record a decade later. As is usually happens, demo-itis infected me. I prefer the demos. 
    Flight Risk out NOW!
