Insulin Shock is a highly popular yet controversial teen rock band that has been the center of both praise and scorn in its tumultuous past. Started in June of 2003 as a Blues quartet by Mathew Poole (who was 15 years old at the time), the boy band became widely known after their first album, Type One Fun, was released in June of 2004. Ever since then, the band has grown exponentially in popularity and in controversy. Though the band has a large and devoted following, it also has its fair share of detractors, who dislike the band due to its so-called "insulting" lyrics about diabetics and the alleged "bland" and "vanilla" quality of their songs. Whether you love or hate Insulin Shock, it has had an undeniably strong effect on contemporary music culture.

The band was recently in the center of a drug scandal, when a private video was accidentally released to the public. The scandalous video showed Poole taking various recreational drugs with his fellow band mates, and then defecating in a sink. Mathew Poole and his band mates had to go to Sunny Oaks Rehabilitation Center for three weeks as punishment.
