In the graffiti world everyone knows Tox, he is probably the most prolific London Underground vandal to ever exsist, he is relentless! For me graff doesnt have to be beautiful it can be just as satisfying to see raw repeated vandalsim.
Im sure to the average commuter Tox tags are an unsightly stain on the city, to me they show that there is life and substance to London. We dont have a choice as to what adverts are smashed in our faces, so the more people willing to stand up and put there own mark out there the better. Tox will go down in history, and without graffiti may well have been just another number.

big question....
is tox myth???
this guy gets uppp!
I saw that special episode of The Tube about him the other day.
He most Definitely gets up!
True London legend.
you man beggin it
I notice Tox all over the place on the train into Marylebone last week
BIG UP TOX! YOU CAN CHECK THE EPISODE OF THE TUBE ABOUT HIM OVER AT THE TOOMUCHPOSSE BLOG, ITS A GOOD LITTLE FILM ABOUT THE GREATEST VANDAL OUT THERE
Tan i've been meaning to ask you about TOX for ages.
Props for the info.
good post man,tox is a legend
I've noticed a steep decline in painted trains and also of stained interiors, it would appear that etching is the only form of graffiti that is still prolific on the london underground. This is a shame and shows that the authorities are winning. Please, those that are so inclined, dust-off your paint and your stainer and revolt!
bare pannels get dun u jus dont kno abowt it...
TOX is one of the only of London's 'All City' graffers left. From Morden to Edgware he's battered the LOT.
TOX ain't no myth tho, met him at House Party 3 after he blammed a wall. Loose cannon but a safe guy/
dude is allover my bits too.
thought he lived round the way.
good look on that tube vid, never seen that before.
I think Jack meant is Tox the writer Myth. If your talking All city kings you cannot leave out Cosa and Cut etc.
Tox is mad up in Paris and Dam also.
cut is toy to be honest. no style.
Cosa doesn't really get up anymore tho does he, he can't still be considered an All City writer.. he's a Hall of Famer now with the rest of DTB/DDS/TKS/AC/MZ/FDC etc all them boys are reachin 30 yrs old now. i mean theres loads of All City writers you could mention, but they don't try get AC status now... TOX is the only graffer in the last 5 years to REALLY make an effort with All City. he's EVERYWHERE!
another guy who's got up a lot out of nowhere is SAVE.
