This week only, you can pick up the EP on BandCamp and Reveille Records' Web-store for only $4! Here are some reviews that have came in: "Boxer and Eyes Wide up the ante with three tracks each and this represents another one of those times, when you go in with no real expectations, only to be blown away by the sheer power of the album. Each band offer something with so much emotional tissue and connectivity in this untitled split, that it'll surely be on repeat for a little longer than you'd initially anticipate. It has that strong sense of urgency in its musical push." 4.5/5 from Punknews.org "Boxer and Eyes Wide, as an end result these two acts bring to the table a beautifully crafted split that holds true to their influences, along with signifying a progressive sound to call their own." 4/5 Easycore.net You can also stream the full EP over at Rock Sound Magazine. We are also running a contest to win free digital downloads on Reveille Records' Facebook page.

This past Fall, Boxer (Richmond, VA) teamed up with Eyes Wide (Hollidaysburg, PA) to record a split EP. Boxer enlisted the help of Will Yip (Title Fight, Balance & Composure) for recording while Eyes Wide collaborated with Vince Ratti (Tigers Jaw, The Wonder Years) and the end result is a mind melting mix of melodic hardcore and 90s alternative rock. This marks the second release from Boxer after debuting their EP Undertow on Reveille Records in 2012 and the first batch of new material from Eyes Wide since 2011. The album ranges from moody angst ridden jams like Boxer’s “Weight” to the gloomy passion of Eyes Wide’s “Gem.” Each band is showcasing three new songs which represents the current direction that both bands are embarking on. On May 7th, 2013 the split will be released digitally (iTunes, Spotify, Amazon MP3) and on CD via Reveille Records. You can PRE-ORDER the album here. STREAM THE SINGLES HERE.

Boxer will be on tour this summer, hitting these cities with Featherweight:

Anyway to embed SoundCloud player into a post?

Just wondering how some of you guys are doing your effects for marble, splatter, etc. Are you just finding other records and tweaking their colors? I only ask because some of them look really, really good.

Protagonist - The Chronicle

Both bands sound great! The Blendours have a real Ziggens feel, love it!

I just used post-hardcore because when I think of hardcore, I think of bands like Minor Threat, Gorilla Biscuits, etc. I personally use post-hardcore as a reference to what more modern day hardcore sounds like, but it's all subjective.

Honestly, I don't care about the result or whether or not it sells. I would press them both individually, I just thought a split of this nature would be cool and would be more cost efficient that's all. So I guess I shouldn't have asked, "would you buy this", but rather "do you think I should release a split or should I just try and press them individually?"

Thanks for all the feedback! I'm glad it's been done before, so thanks for letting me know

Yeah, I get that if the bands are good people would be interested, but traditional split releases are a few new songs from two bands. This would be a little different, I'd be putting two recently released EPs on a single vinyl, one on each side. I've never seen it done that way before and was just wondering if the idea itself would be interesting to people or whether people would steer away from it.

The label I run is called Reveille Records (http://facebook.com/reveillerecords) if you want to check out our other releases haha it'll give you a better idea of the type of music we put out. They're all melodic punk bands, but that's a broad category so their sounds vary quite a bit.

Exactly, and about half the price to make two 7"s, so we could also keep the price down this way

Wish I could, but I'm not sure if it's going to be released like this yet, hopefully soon though.

Haha I guess, but neither sound like The Story So Far if that's where this is going. I do like that band though, so I guess I'm a 25 year old teeny bopper haha

Both genres are similar, ones a moody alt-rock, post-hardcore act and the other is a melodic punk band.
