Biography

Alt-rockers Skull Kontrol were formed in Washington, D.C., in 1997, consisting of vocalist/guitarist Chris Thomson (formerly of Monorchid, Ignition, and Circus Lupus), bassist Kim Thompson (ex-Delta 72 and Cupid Car Club), and drummer Brooks Headly. When Monorchid disbanded, guitarist Andy Coronado joined up, and Thomson switched exclusively to vocals. Skull Kontrol signed to Touch and Go Records and in 1999 released their debut EP, Deviate Beyond All Means of Capture. ZZZZZZ... followed a year later.
