The Boxer Rebellion Album Set & Exclusive Hand Signed Print

Having finally established themselves as a globally recognised touring band, and still wholly independent, The Boxer Rebellion turned to producer Ethan Johns to help them create The Cold Still.

“Ethan had been our dream producer for years, so when we were asked to make a list of people to produce the third album my list consisted of one name,” says guitarist Todd Howe. “We didn’t want anyone else and, luckily for us, he was in from the first demo. We were looking for a more natural and evolved sound and we knew Ethan would get it right.”

The Cold Still was entirely recorded and mixed to tape at Peter Gabriel’s Real World Studios.

Includes the singles “Step out of the Car,” “The Runner,” “Caught by the Light”

In 2004 The Boxer Rebellion were invited to perform on Glastonbury Festival’s New Band stage, delivering an explosive performance that led to a record deal with Poptones/Mercury Records. In 2005, The Boxer Rebellion’s debut LP EXITS was unleashed.

NME proclaimed,“ This band can alter your life.” Kerrang wrote, “If you’re crying out for substance in music, The Boxer Rebellion are here to soothe your soul.” Both The Fly magazine and MusicOMH dubbed the album “flawless”. But what should have been the grand campaign that finally brought The Boxer Rebellion to the world’s attention turned instantly to dust as the album’s ill-fated label simultaneously breathed its last and imploded.

Includes the tracks “Watermelon”, “We Have This Place Surrounded” and “The Absentee”

Produced and mixed in Los Angeles by Billy Bush, this collection of 11 tracks is the hi-fi soaring piece of work that truly delivers on the band’s epic, signature sound. According to Matt Collar of All Music: “The Boxer Rebellion have once again delivered a set of yearning rock anthems, full of searing romanticism and brooding atmosphere, and the release ranks as one of their best.”

Working with producer Billy Bush, the band let go of their longstanding love of organic analogue recording in favour of a more adventurous, sonically crisp sound. The result is that Promises has a vibrant, wide-angle lens perfectly suited to the band’s buoyant lyricism and guitar rock uplift. Tracks like the lead-off "Diamonds" and the sparkling "Keep on Moving" frame lead singer Nathan Nicholson's gentle yet impassioned vocals with driving drum beats and layers of delayed and processed guitars that build slowly to each song’s emotional climax.

Elsewhere, cuts like “Always” and "Take Me Back" mix percussive, electronic, dance-influenced beats with '80s new wave-influenced melodies. These are songs that have a cinematic quality, each one feeling eerily as if you’ve heard it in a film. This immediate, imagistic quality means that the songs stick with you long after you’ve heard them, and as the title implies, with Promises, the Boxer Rebellion never let you down.”

Includes the singles “Diamonds,” “Keep Moving,” “Promises"
