They're this badass thrash-prog band that had some great stuff back in the 80s. You see, they started out in Austin, Texas and basically did NWOBHM and Rush covers before recording the greatest thrash album known to man, Energetic Disassembly. After this, their guitarist Billy White left because he was a sissy and didn't like metal. Their singer Jason McMaster also left to join some glam band called Dangerous Toys or whatever. They got replaced by new guys, like Ron Jarzombek and Alan Tecchio in time to record the greatest prog album known to man, Control and Resistance. After this, Jarzombek got hand problems and Tecchio left, so Watchtower sort of disbanded.
They're doing shows again, but we've been waiting for a third album since 1989 :/

"Is it okay if I do this?"
"I am not sure. I will check the publications and see what the Watchtower says about it."
