Box Elders

Box Elders, a self-described "Cave pop"[2] band, began initially in 2005 as a goof-off project of fifteen-year-old Clayton and his twenty-nine-year-old brother Jeremiah McIntyre.

After seeing a free show, Dave Goldberg was enlisted to join and simultaneously play organs and drums.

They spent much of 2008 and 2009 on the road before releasing their debut album Alice and Friends on August 11, 2009.

[5] They embarked on a tour of the United States in October 2009 with labelmates Jay Reatard and Nobunny and in March 2010 with Black Lips.

[9] The band is known for making short, but catchy songs about an interesting array of topics including walking ("One Foot in Front of the Other"), the end of the world ("2012"), goblins ("Alice & Friends"), a childhood hippie neighbor who hunted with Ted Nugent ("Ronald Dean") and necrophilia ("Necro").
