Toehider, the Australian musical entity masterminded by the prolific and multifaceted Mike Mills, stands as a beacon of creativity and diversity in the realm of progressive rock. Since its inception, Toehider has carved a unique niche within the music industry, blending elements of progressive rock, metal, pop, and a plethora of other genres into a sound that is distinctly their own. Mike Mills, known for his exceptional vocal range and versatile musicianship, has guided Toehider on a journey of prolific creativity, as evidenced by an extensive discography that challenges and delights in equal measure.

From their ambitious project of releasing twelve EPs in twelve months to their full-length albums, Toehider’s music is a testament to Mills’ imaginative storytelling and musical ingenuity. Albums like "X" and "SPACE FAMOUS" showcase the band’s ability to traverse musical landscapes, from the grandiose and epic to the intimate and introspective. Their playful and often whimsical approach is evident in releases such as "Children of the Sun 3: A Collection of Cartoon Theme Songs from an Alternate Timeline in Which All Cartoons Are Duck-Themed," a project that underscores Mills’ knack for conceptual and thematic exploration. Through every release, from "The 4 Castles of Stelcoaryn" to "Snapshots From Beacontown Spring Dance '85," Toehider invites listeners into a world where the boundaries of genre and convention are continually reimagined and redefined, cementing their status as one of the most inventive and unpredictable acts in the contemporary music scene.
