Skimo is a musical genre invented by Byron (of the band Byron's Lines) to describe his music. The word itself is derived from three main roots: Emo (a musical genre), Ska (another musical genre), and Matt Skiba (the lead singer of Rock group Alkaline Trio).
In recent years Skimo has been used more and more to reference the more "pure" Rock&Roll songs in the B/L canon: Cardboard Cutouts, You Were Right, Using Me; and the quintessential B/L, Knife.
