The name of this band and demo had me thinking “skate punk/ska” hybrid… but that is not the case. This is a heavy funk band closer to Dig Hay Zoose or Ethereal Soul. They have the more serious side and heavier guitars of Ethereal Soul along with the funky bass and vocal-stylings closer to DHZ. Alton, Kansas is 280 miles away from the Kansas City scene that spawned DHZ and others, but maybe this band was still a part of that scene somehow? Anyways, if you like those kinds of bands, this band would fit alongside them despite the demo not looking like much.
