Toxic Crew

Toxic Crew is a 5-piece Hardcore-Punk band based out of New York consisting of Milo Stricker (Vocals), Will Vellek (Guitars), CJ Taiano (Drums), John N. Mastroberardino (Bass), and Jon Mohan (Vocals)

Since coming together in September 2015, we’ve concocted a sound that is a ferocious blend of Hardcore-Punk, Metalcore, Deathcore and Thrash metal. We’ve taken that mix up and down the northeastern United States, sharing the stage with a variety of bands ranging in genre from Deathcore to Hip-Hop and even acoustic Pop Punk.

Overall our presence is largely defined by our sense of humor. We often integrate stage props and gags into our sets to engage the crowd in fun ways, taking pride in embracing the “tough guy” stereotype to the point of satire. Additionally, our songwriting reflects this mentality, blending silly titles with either nonsensical or darker, more personal lyrical content. In that regard we don’t take ourselves too seriously, and we find it helps people connect to us and our music in a very meaningful way.

With a relentless work ethic and an upbeat attitude, we aim to reach new horizons, bringing an eclectic energy to the stage and creating memorable experiences for Hardcore fans both new and old.
