The band concept originated when Noah Gray (drums), formerly of Tweak, approached Joe Cruz (bass), formerly of the Road Apples, with an idea to form a new band grounded in uptempo ska. The band added Notre Dame Marching Band members Tony Eltink (trombone), Dave Griffith (Trombone) and Paula Conolly (Sax). Tim Bowers (vocals) was also originally slotted as a trombonist. The final member to join was Mike Bechtel (guitar).
Over the course of their 2 years together, Skalcoholiks developed a very tight, percussive musical style. Lyrically, Bowers and Bechtel shared songwriting duty, both hewing primarily towards a humorous style (although the band occasionally switched tones with songs such as 1888 and Life.
Skalcoholiks recorded "look at all this junkfood..." in February 1998 at Gene Michael Productions in Niles, Michigan. They pressed 2000 CD's which were bought by a receptive audience in Spring of 1998.

This album is so great! One of the most underrated bands to come out of DC, in my opinion.
Son of Nimrod
I was introduced to so many of my favourite albums by your uploads. Deserve so much praise for giving people a chance to hear this stuff that is off the map or just flat-out unavailable in certain countries.

Yo thanks! I really appreciate that! I always wanted to make justice for non-uploaded albums that are so great and were so dificult to find in full album format or in good quality in general. So, again, thanks!
