PlayBack: MilesExperience - Soberhaul (album)

01/21/2018 09:51:04 PM



MilesExperience has probably taken a huige swerve nearly two years since the release of their debut Again & Against, an album that launched their career in the stratosphere.

With MCA Music Philippines backing them since 2016, the quintet of Miles Bondoc, Guido Hizon, Justin Teano, Ian Diaz, and Tim Odulio, embarked on their momentum; writing songs while hitting release from A-and-A titled Anggulo.

Sunshine has remarkably its pilot tester en route to launching a new record, the 10-track Soberhaul, with cover art from their long-time friend Myk Galido a.k.a. Cinos. When Msex unveiled the piece of its album artwork on social media, I already know who's the brain behind its brushes.

And truth be told: Setting its fair share of mishaps and silences for two months aside, MilesExperience transformed itself from being another bunch of dudes making swabe music (something that has become a hit for the past 3-4 years) into their own identified kind of jazz, blues, and alternative. It was a fusion that started from Down, and it transcended to their upbeat-dominated album. There's obvious a number of differences shown upon doing a comparison test between the two discs.

Soberhaul was a merrier live show (and no sexual pun intended here) a total turnaround from Again & Against, with more emotionally-positive lyrics and relatively-same louder bang on instrumentals. Needless to say this album has become a new wind instead of being just a second.

The Verdict: 8.9

Must-hear: Feels-Like A Wave, All The Love, Takipsilim, Pagkakataon
