This box-like thing is actually more of a monolith. The boys we see are members of the Rock group The Who. This photo (it's an album cover) mocks the film 2001, A Space Odyssey by Stanley Kubrick (at the start of the film a big black monolith lands on earth and becomes the cause of Man's evolution...).
The group had asked Kubrick to make the cover of their album, but he was not interested; as The Who were a little peeved about it, they made their own cover, which shows them urinating on a monolith. I find this picture humorous, especially when you know the story of its making!
