This month's Devil album of the month is the new album from The Boxer Rebellion, The Cold Still. With titles like Doubt, Cause For Alarm and themes of excessively obsessive love, paranoia, betrayal and 'the beast within' The Boxer Rebellion are a serious bunch of young coves. This is glum rock par excellance and they don't come much more glum than the shocking Locked In The Basement which could be the lead track from a rock opera based on the life of Josef Fritzl. If you're looking for frivolous songs about birthdays in May or Post Break-Up Sex then you need to look elsewhere (try Brother or The Vaccines).
This could well be the album to break the band in the UK and not before time.
