The Boxer Rebellion just release their third studio album on Tuesday, entitled "The Cold Still," the album’s release marks the next stage of an incredible musical journey for Tennessee-native Nathan Nicholson, Australian Todd Howe, and Englishmen Adam Harrison and Piers Hewitt. Recorded at Peter Gabriel’s Real World Studios in the UK, The Cold Still is the follow-up to the band’s widely acclaimed album Union, which caught the world’s attention as the first self-released LP in history to break into the Billboard Top 100 Album Charts on digital sales alone. Union also charted Top 5 on the iTunes Album Charts in both the US and UK. By the end of 2009, iTunes US named Union their “Alternative Album of the Year.” Whether it be their chart successes, their unprecedented on-camera appearance in the recently released Drew Barrymore/Justin Long film “Going The Distance,” or their recent 20 date packed-out US tour, The Boxer Rebellion continue to push boundaries with unwavering perseverance.
If you have not listened to it yet, you all are in for a big treat. This album helped me get through are blizzard of 2011 that started Tuesday and went into Wednesday. Which Chicago is still working on clearing! Enough about the storm. This album is such a breath of fresh air, the song that touches me the most is "Both Sides Are Even." After discovering this band last year, when they were a free download on iTunes, I was hooked right away.
