context_page_description: Skasucks is a prominent ska punk band based in Seoul, South Korea. They are heavily influenced by ska-punk as well as 2 tone. Formed in 2006, they opened for The Slackers in 2007 and the Chris Murray Combo in 2008. They are known for their lively stage presence. Their lead vocalist Ryu, who also works as a tattoo artist, has become a prominent organiser of the Korean punk music scene. After the lead singers of Rux and Suck Stuff stepped down, Ryu took over Korean operations for the annual Korea/Japan Punk Festival. Ryu also runs the live music venue Club SHARP and tattoo parlour SHARP INK in the same building.
  In 2009 two of their songs were nominated for Asia Voice Independent Music Awards, "The Ship is Going Down" for Best Instrumental and "Skaholic" for Genre Bending – Mindboggling – Out of This World Track!
  The band name is said to be an absurdity with no literal meaning disparaging ska music.
