The Numbskulls The Numbskulls (aka HyperzombieNumbSkulls) were an influential acid house band from Boulder, Colorado in the early to mid-1980s. Influenced by the Madchester style of music of The Stone Roses and Happy Mondays, as well as punk/new wave bands New Order and The Cure, the Numbskulls catalogue included whimsical lyrics juxtaposed against repetitive keyboards, trance-like drumming, melodic vocals and quirky punk guitar hooks. They referred to their musical style as "danceable dirge". The band was a four piece with band leader, Mike Harris Bacidore on keyboards, bass, and vocals, Mateo Juarez (Matthew Harris Sullivan) on lead guitar and vocals, Mike Tomich on guitars and vocals, and Scuz Roland (Don Adydan) on drums. The Numbskulls were founded by Bacidore and Sullivan in Longmont, Colorado in 1983. The band often dressed up in leisure suits and rubber masks, reggae attire, or as hippies and played under a variety of inane monikers, most notably "Happy World Beat" — thus, only their most rabid fans were aware of their true identity. They enjoyed playing techno punk jams, an antithetical punk style whereby their songs would often last fifteen minutes or more and were a spontaneous combination of funk, punk, reggae, jazz, techno, and new wave. The Madchester style to which their music is often associated was not yet popular in the United States, and as fervent followers, the Numbskulls ushered the era of ecstasy laden rave culture of the late eighties in the Boulder and Denver area of Colorado. The band released several underground albums including "HyperzombieNumbSkuLLs" (1983), "Rubberface" (1984), "Big Bowel Movement" (1985), "Get in the Groove" (1985), and "Red Light" (1986).
