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).

Autumn Poison Autumn Poison were an English anarcho-punk band from Southend on Sea, Essex, that existed between 1980 and 1985. Originally called Enola Death, a number of musicians in the Southend area passed through the group, including Julian Ware Lane and Chris Kemp of 86 Mix, Kevin Hickling, Steve Palmer, James Perry and Wayne Avrilli, though the 'core members' were Graham Burnett (previously of Stripey Zebras), Sheena Fulton and Paul Brown. The band played a number of gigs in the Southend area, often in conjunction with the like-minded Kronstadt Uprising, many of which were benefits for organisations such as Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament and local animal rights groups. The name of the band was derived from the Japanese term for the radiation sickness that followed the bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 1945, following correspondence between Burnett and Toxic Graffity (sic) fanzine editor Mike Diboll.

Initially associated with new wave, neo-psychedelia and indie rock, their music later came to feature slower tempos and surreal soundscapes reminiscent of dream pop and post-rock. Glenn A. Baker has written that "From the release of the 'She Never Said' single in November 1980, this unique Sydney-originated entity has purveyed a distinctive, ethereal, psychedelic-tinged sound which has alternatively found favour and disfavor in Australia." The "Los Angeles Times" has described the band's music as "dense, shimmering, exquisite guitar pop".
