Artist History Odium, Blitzkrieg, Evilution. Just some of the many names toadstone have had over the years. Back in 1996, Daniel approached Mark and Adrian to play in a school talent quest. After just a few weeks of jamming together, they managed to put together a pretty good Nirvana cover and win the best performance by a junior band. A few weeks later, Gavin joined the band. Having only been playing bass guitar for a few months, it was a challenge for him, as Mark and Daniel had been playing guitar for a few years and Adrian playing drums for about five.
