Boxer Rebellion: McGee's New Signing Touring Round Your Way. Go see
sean by Sean Adams August 10th, 2003
One of the hottest new bands (or at least so said a demo review by the DiS editor a few months ago) - as seen playing a Drowned in Sound/Club Fandango show at the Dublin Castle and in the new bands tent at Glastonbury - announce debut single and UK tour...

For all those folks who find the Coopers' non-danceable tracks too noizy, all those girls who swoon over Tim Burgess, and boys who long for the Verve to reform; well wait no more, cos The Boxer Rebellion are here. Their debut single 'Watermelon' is out on Alan McGee's Poptones label on October 6th.

Anyhoo, don't take our word for 'em being great, check 'em out for yourselves at the following dates...
