Evils Toy started out in 1992 as the project of Volker Lutz and Thorsten Brenda. They duly prepared a demo tape which secured their signature to the Hypnobeat label, who released their debut album “Human Refuse” in 1994. Their combination of distorted vocals and EBM rhythms with occasional touches of melody proved relatively successful, though their real breakthrough came two years later with their “Organics” single, which received significant airplay on both sides of the Atlantic.
The “Illusion” album in 1997 was the last by this act that might accurately be defined as “industrial”. Even then, there were signs that the band’s style was moving towards synthpop, a theory confirmed on the “Angel’s Only!” album the following year, which saw a move away from distorted vocals. This was the first Evils Toy recording to feature Oliver Taranczewski, as well as the last recorded with Thorsten Brenda. For background vocals and live keyboards Volker brought in his long-time gilr-friend. She appears in the videos for “Virtual State” and “Dream With Me”. “Silvertears” in 2000 was the last release under the name Evils Toy. The project was known as “T.O.Y.” thereafter.
