| About The Miles |
|
I like to think of The Miles as a blistering and fiery cosmic flame streaking through the night sky at warp 9.997, and me as a time-traveling pirate in a fresh, pink mini-skirt crying myself to sleep every night during the Reagan administration.
Its this kind of oxymoronic relationship that patterns The Miles' elusive wit and musical boundary-bending.
Not really, but kind of.
It's like when you just listen to some songwriting rock band and think to yourself: "I grew up with some of the same records as these kids". So, it's like that and it's nicely done, and nowhere, ANYWHERE IN ANY MILES SONG WILL YOU HEAR "THINKING" AND "DRINKING" PLACED IN RHYME. GUARANTEED!
Certain rules exist for a reason.
Ok, some music writers have praised the songwriting as both unique AND quality. They have also praised the band for a sweet, tasteful delivery completely free of any "stage moves".
Fake passion just looks stupid.
Best way to know for yourself is to download some songs, come to a show, or just browse the pictures section while your boyfriend is sleeping.
