The Monoxides were actually formed in 1988 by Steve and Ken at the ages of 13 and 12 respetively. The current line up has been together since 1991. The band had 4 indie releases from 1991-1994 before signing with Handsome Boy/BMG Music Canada in 1995.
1995 saw the release of their first EP 'Out Of The Marsh', released on Toronto-based indie label Handsome Boy. 1997 had the band release their first full-length album 'Galaxy Of Stooges' via BMG Music Canada. 1997 was also the busiest year for the band, being on the road from March until
December of that year, supporting such acts as Rusty, Change of Heart, The Headstones, ZZ Top, The Pursuit of Happiness and Our Lady Peace.
The start of 1998 saw the band part ways with BMG Music Canada and that August brought about 'Hints And Shortcuts', a live EP that was released on the band's own Superbob Records imprint. The EP was compiled with songs recorded at shows from across Canada the previous year.
