Formed in 1989 in Boston, Toxic Narcotic is one of the most hard working and essential DIY hardcore punk bands in the entire scene. Toxic Narcotic was formed with the intent of mixing their favorite elements of punk and hardcore into an original sound with some nihilistic lyrics. This mix of brutal music with extremely energetic shows has created a large local and national following of people from different genres of underground music. The band has toured almost constantly for the past ten years all over North America and Europe.
