Agony

Agony

In the time-honored tradition of SOCIAL DISTORTION, THE CLASH and The Chieftain S, Chicago's most infamous Irish folk-rock hooligans, THE TOSSERS return with a new arsenal of raucous, sincere anthems for the downtrodden that provide musical rays of hope in a time of dark uncertainty.Formed by the Duggins brothers on the South Side of Chicago in the mid-'90s, THE TOSSERS have become renown as one of the most notorious and enjoyable live bands in the country. Fusing the classic Irish rock of SHANE McGOWAN and THE POGUES, with the working class singer-songwriter rock of BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN and ELVIS COSTELLO and the high-octane punk energy of THE CLASH and STIFF LITTLE FINGERS, THE TOSSERS create an exciting and moving brand of Celtic rock that anyone of any age or background can fall in love with. THE TOSSERS return in 2007 with their new Victory full-length, Agony . This record not only shows a band that is growing in their writing and playing, but in life in general. The songs are tales of reflection, friendship and just living life to the fullest. From heartfelt ballads to fast, hard drinking songs, Agony runs a spectrum of emotions the way that only a TOSSERS record can. Few bands are so genuine in their writing; rarely do they wear the emotions in their songs on their sleeves the way THE TOSSERS do.
