The Box Social were an American band from Mequon, Wisconsin, often described as pop rock and sometimes as grunge revival.[1] Critics have compared their sound to Smashing Pumpkins, Franz Ferdinand and Lou Reed,[2] with some songs compared positively to AC/DC[1] and others negatively to Weezer.[3] Critics praised Nick Woods' vocals, noting that he actually sings rather than screaming,[1] and comparing his vocals to Jack White.[4] Woods was later a member of Direct Hit.[5] The band formed in 2002, and released three EPs[6] and one full-length album called Get Going before splitting in 2008.[7]
