This one of the most truly entertaining videos I've seen in quite a while. The Boxing Lesson, from Austin, Tejas, blend some pop sensibilties into their own brand of psychedilia. They don't have the drone and darkness of local brethren The Black Angels, and they aren't as poppy as The Flaming Lips. But, they pull off a sound that is uniquely their own.
They begin a summer tour in a few days. If you can see them, check them out.
