Toxodeth was an influential band within the Mexican death metal scene that emerged in the late '80s. Their journey into the depths of extreme music began in 1984, and they quickly became known for their raw, ominous sound that interweaved elements of death metal with hints of thrash and early black metal. The band’s debut album, "Mysteries About Life and Death," was released in 1988 and to this day is considered a cult classic, showcasing the band’s early exploration into themes surrounding the occult, existential dread, and the macabre.

Throughout their career, Toxodeth released a number of recordings that contributed to their underground status, including demos like "Metal Macabre demos 1985-1986" which captured the gritty essence of their early days, and live tapes such as "Live Tapes 1994" and "Mysteries Tour Live 1990 Bootleg" that demonstrated the band's raw live energy. While they might not have achieved mainstream success, Toxodeth carved out a distinct niche and gathered a dedicated fan base. Their music served as an essential building block in the development of extreme metal in Mexico, influencing a generation of metalheads and musicians with their morbid and foreboding soundscapes.
