The Toll (other)
The Toll was a rock band from Columbus, Ohio active from the mid-1980s to the early 1990s. It consisted of vocalist Brad Circone, guitarist Rick Silk, bassist Greg Bartram, and Brett Mayo on drums. Unusually, many of their songs incorporated spoken narratives. They had earned a reputation for their live performances and were signed to Geffen on the strength of a single show, although they had previously recorded a demo for Chrysalis. The Toll's first album was titled ''The Price of Progression,'' and "Jonathan Toledo," which included one of the band's trademark narratives and clocked in at more than ten minutes, was the first single.

Sticks And Stones And Broken Bones
''Sticks and Stones and Broken Bones'' is an album by the American band the Toll, released in 1991. The band supported the album by touring with the Ramones. The first single was "One Last Wish". Critical reception ''The Washington Post'' wrote that "the Toll has succeeded in fashioning a thoroughly mainstream American-rock sound that's subtly enlivened by deft borrowings from Britain." The ''Chicago Tribune'' noted that the "producer Matt Wallace also has worked with the Replacements and Faith No More, and The Toll fits perfectly midway between those two bands."
