MILES AWAY
"Consequences" (Bridge Nine; 2005)
Reviewed by Snidermann
Australian hardcore outfit Miles Away continues their blending of old school techniques and new school melodies on the 11-track "Consequences."
Taking pages from Gorilla Biscuits, Madball and Comeback Kid respectively, this quintet from the land down under lay down a sturdy, yet predictable barrage of power chords, gang vocals, and swift rhythms on choice cuts like the frenetic opener "Final Chapter," "Yours Sincerely" and "The Great Escape," aptly exhibiting their abilities to break it down, build it up, and chunk it out.
Looking for an album to rage out with? Allow Miles Away to take you back on the new school tip with "Consequences."

Rating Guide:
A classic. This record will kick your ass.
Killer. Not a classic but it will rock your world.
So-so. You've heard better.
Pretty bad. Might make a nice coaster.
Self explanatory. Just the sight of the cover makes you wanna hurl.
