Miles Away have announced they will be recording a new album in July with Defeater's Jay Mass at his studio in Massachusetts.

Below is the word from the band...

"There’s been a lot going on since we last posted an update. We won’t go into detail as much of it involves our personal lives, but what’s important to know is that we're is just as siked on the band now as we were way back in 2002 when this whole thing first took off.

All of our members are back in Perth this month to finalise the songs which have been written via the carrier pigeon over the past few years, and in July we’re off to Boston to record the new full length with Jay Maas at The Getaway Group. Due to our current transcontinental living arrangements, we’ve had a lot of great friends/musicians helping us out, and we couldn’t be more grateful and appreciative. After being together for 12 years now we have met some of the most incredible people on the planet through being in this band. And now to have some of those people help collaborate, whether it be a second guitar part, beating a snare drum or just voicing their opinions, we couldn’t feel more right about recording this record".
