Miles Away is an Australian hardcore punk band from Perth, Western Australia, formed in 2002.[1]

History

Miles Away was formed in mid-2002 by Cam Jose and Adam Crowe, who then drafted in Chris Unsworth, the drummer from Crowe's first band Alleged, to play the bass. Nick Horsnell joined up on vocals in late 2002. At this time the band was going under the name Burning Bridges, until they found a US band with the same name.

The band's second album, Consequences[1] was released in January 2006.

Miles Away recorded their 2010 album Endless Roads with producer Dean Baltulonis (Sick of It All, American Nightmare, No Warning, Modern Life is War) at The Wild Arctic Recording Studio in New York City. The album was released in August through Resist Records (Australia) and Anchors Aweigh Records (Europe). Ash Pederick decided to leave the band and focus on his own project. Colton Vaughan Jolliffe (formally of Perth hardcore act Something More) filled in on bass while the band was on tour.

In 2010, Miles Away released the full-length album Endless Roads, and followed that with Tide in 2015.
