!!Tropes in The Tossers music:
* AntiChristmasSong: Their single ''Merry Christmas'', wishing that the corrupt, criminal, and downright scummy get exactly what's coming to them as the hungry and homeless suffer.
* {{UsefulNotes/Chicago}}: Almost always plays a role in their albums, the song "Emerald City" might as well be a giant love letter to it.
* CorruptPolitician: The song "Political Scum".
* {{UsefulNotes/The Irish Diaspora}}: Mentioned as a major part in what made Chicago the city it is today.
* ShoutOut
** "No Loot, No Booze, No Fun"
--> ''Oh [[{{Music/TheRamones}} Dee Dee Ramone]] where have you gone/In misery all day long, to shoot some dope right into your arm''
