The Miles Between

In today's hardcore scene, it seems that bands are increasingly pressured to subscribe to certain generic standards since the primary thing label's are drawn to is a band's marketability potential. Enter The Miles Between, a five piece metal / hardcore / southern rock straight edge band from Taunton, MA, who are openly revolting against said conventions by playing heavy, groove laden rock with crushing breakdowns and ample two-stepping fast parts. Their brand of metal/hardcore attracted the attention of Alternative Press magazine who featured them as an unsigned band of the month in March of 2006. Their energetic live show landed The Miles Between a spot on last years prestegious New England Metal Hardcore Fest along side such acts as Dragonforce, On Broken Wings (Euglogy Recordings), Twelve Tribes (Ferret Records), and Bloodlined Calligraphy (Facedown Records) as well as Skatefest along side Every Time I Die (Ferret Records), Strech Arm Strong (Solid State Records) and With Honor (Victory Records) just to name a few. They also caught the eye of Seventh Dagger Records who added them to their roster in the summer of 2006. The Miles Between offer unique and affirmative songs while staying true to an increasingly marginalized straight edge lifestyle. Sadly They had to change lead singers due to the old one breaking edge. Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
