Injected was an American hard rock band from Atlanta, Georgia.[1] Active from 1995 to 2005 and for brief periods until 2016, the band released two full-length LPs: 2002's Burn It Black[2] and 2016's The Truth About You.[3]

Influenced by groups such as Quicksand, Helmet[4] and Mötley Crüe,[5] the band was known for their raucous live performances[6] as well as their melody and songwriting.[2]

The band's major label debut, Burn It Black, was critically acclaimed, with Metallica's Lars Ulrich nominating it for the Shortlist Prize in 2002,[7] as well as appearing on Eddie Trunk's year-end top 10 list for 2002.[8]
