The Well Below is a four-song EP by Twin Cities-based folk punk band Boiled in Lead, its eighth collection of new material.[4]

Critical reception to the album was positive. Huffington Post writer Stephen Winick called the band "a cooler, more American alternative to the Pogues, more skilled at their instruments, with more pure traditional music on one end and more rock electricity on the other," and praised their "hair-raising" and "foreboding" take on "The Well Below the Valley" and "rich, complex arrangement" of the Holcomb song.[3] David Hintz of FolkWorld stated that the album "has the exotic flair we [have] all come to expect from this band."[1]
