Product Description

Big Hits! is the first full-length album released by The Boxing Lesson in five years. It is not a concept album nor does it have political overtones, although it may offer solutions to some personal troubles. It's more rock-oriented than The Boxing Lesson's past albums. It is produced by Chris Frenchie Smith at The Bubble in Austin, TX, and contains a total of 11 songs. Big Hits! is not a jam-band album. Most tracks are under 4 minutes in length. There are lengthy guitar solos for cosmic relevance, but only in 3 songs. Synthesizers were used extensively but it's neither new-age nor electronica music. Big Hits! is definitely psychedelic but not in a throw-back 60's way. It's recommended to listen to the songs in order, but if shuffled there will be no negative consequences. Multiple listens produce higher levels of understanding. 'Hard to be cosmic and stay grounded at the same time, but Austin's acid star the Boxing Lesson does so on Big Hits!. The trio's high-octane blend of earthy hooks and psychedelic astronomy gels to perfection under the guidance of Chris 'Frenchie' Smith (Sixteen Deluxe), on whose new label this record appears.' Austin Chronicle 'That's a lot of noise coming from three people. We have the aggressive drum workout of 14-year-old Ben Redman. There's the spacey, spooky synthesizer loops of Jaylinn Davidson. Plus the fuzzy, vibrate-the-room guitar riffs of Paul Waclawsky.' Dallas Morning News / Popculture Blog 'A mix of glam, New York-style punk and classic rock, this is a powerful force of musical nature that I think rock fans have been waiting for, whether they know it or not.' Dingus.
