TOXIC FEDERATION

Toxic Federation formed in 2006 and hail from Derby in the Midlands, UK. Their debut album, 'Behind The Mask' was released in 2008.

The band recruited a permanent singer, Mitchel Emms, a year later and they continue to gain new fans through their live appearances, supporting bands like The Answer and UFO and playing Festivals such as Istanbul Rock Festival in April 2011.

Their second album 'As One', with Emms on vocals, was released in 2010.

The band have tapped into the rich history of hard rock from the 70's + 80's and reproduced it for the youth of today. The influences that can be heard range from Led Zeppelin and Thin Lizzy to Black Stone Cherry and Motley Crue. They have toured alongside classic bands as UFO and The Answer, Justin Hawkins, Diamond Head, The Levellers.
