MILES AWAY TOUR
Posted by Bomber on Tuesday, July 20 @ 10:21:08 CDT (812 reads)
Perth's Miles Away are set to confirm their standing at the top of the hardcore heap with their awe-inspiring third album, Endless Roads on August 20th. The culmination of eight years of hard work, heartache and good times, Endless Roads is the sound of a passionate, road-hardened band at the height of their powers. Three years on from their previous effort, 2007’s Rewind Repeat, Miles Away are older, wiser and more determined than ever. “We’ve all matured and that’s come through in our writing,” says MA guitarist Adam Crowe. “This time we set out with different intentions for each song. We wanted some short, fast songs, some heavier songs and also some epic, drawn-out songs…” Written last year during some rare downtime, Endless Roads was recorded in early 2010 at Wild Arctic studios in New York by producer Dean Baltulonis (Sick Of It All, American Nightmare), and will be released on August 20. Currently on a tour throughout Europe, this September / October the band will return to home soil for the Endless Roads Tour. Read More for the dates.
