There are three bands that go by the name Boxes:
1) Boxes is indie-electro-pop hailing from south-east London. Boxes collides contagious melodies with messed-up synths, guitars & punching beats…. and makes melancholy feel like a warm summers day. A delicate balance of The Postal Service, Bright Eyes and The Killers. Look out for him in 2012.

2) Boxes is a band based in Davis, California.
From their website: http://www.myspace.com/boxesboxes
"Boxes was created in the fall of 2008. Boxes consits of Lindsey Pavao (from A Colourado) and Matthew Torres (from Bad Fusion and Danny DeLeon). Lindsey and Matt met at UC Davis after they realized that they lived in the same apartment complex, had the same major, and had all the same friends. Matt doesn't know if he... likes peanut brittle. It has been claimed by many that Boxes plays a combination of creep rock, folk pop and mime screamo. Matt and Lindsey nod in agreement at this.
NOTICE: Matt and Lindsey are not actually boxes. They are normal law biting citizens.
Boxes tends to write their songs in an improv format. Often making funny stories out of their misery filled lives. They also like playing Nirvana and Franz Ferdinand covers as if their songs were written by Elliot Smith. You should see this band play live. They are very amiable young-ins."
Their latest release was an EP named "Mia And Her Troop of Boxes".
3) Boxes is a two man rock band based in Dublin, Ireland. Gavin is the singer/guitarist/bassist, Mark is the drummer. They've been playing for three years and have supported Nomeansno, The Ex, Zu, Dinsosaur Jr and loads of others. They just released their second album "Bad Blood" which they recorded in Electrical Audio in Chicago in April 2005.
Their first album 'Big Ships in the Night Small Boats in the Morning' was released in August 2003.

Animal, the third album by Irish bass and drums rockers Boxes, has now been released June 2008. Recorded in Dublin’s Experimental Audio and engineered by Stephen Shannon, Animal ‘s six tracks provide a short, sharp dose of molten rock, as bassist Gavin Cowley and drummer Mark Hayes further distil their post- punk sound, while loosening it in the direction of blues, grunge and garage rock.
Animal is a logical progression from their second release, the critically-lauded Bad Blood, which was recorded by Steve Albini and released and distributed (respectively) by Rotterdam’s Laterax Records and Cargo in the UK. Animal is also the band’s first release on their own Branchy Tree Records. All the sleeves are designed and printed by Cowley.
