Artist description
T.O.W.’s mission statement might read: “To bring together the drive of modern-rock, the freedom and flair of funk, and the down-to-earth nature of independent hip-hop with poetry and lyrics that hold more meaning than simply angst and clich.” For reference, T.O.W. has been compared to Rage Against the Machine (for their aggressive sound), Faith No More (for the mastery of their instruments), and 311 (for their funky groove), but there seems to be no single band to compare them to. Suffice to say that T.O.W. is a unique band with a unique sound... have a listen, won't you?
