Paul Francis Toohill, born 1969-02-22 in Sheffield, England, is the former vocalist and lyricist for the Italian futurepop band XP8. He is also a singer for Muscle And Hate.

As tour promoter he organised concerts by bands like Einstuerzende Neubaten, Test Dept, Legendary Pink Dots, Cop Shoot Cop, The Young Gods, Clock DVA, and others. During the mid-nineties he was official photographer for Clock DVA. Soon after the move he formed XP8, together with Marco Visconti and Marko Resurreccion. Paul contributed with vocals, lyrics and energetic on-stage performance to this band. In 2005, he contributed most vocals to a Nitzer Ebb tribute project created by Sebastian Komor (Icon of Coil), Muscle And Hate.
