The Last Mile Release New Album, “Holding On To Hope” Is An Absolute Sonic And Melodic Work Of Art

We recently had the epically awesome opportunity to check out the blazing new album, “Holding On To Hope”, via Thousand Islands Records from Montreal punks, The Last Mile. You can listen to “Holding On To Hope” Here

“Holding On To Hope” , from The Last Mile is everything you could ever ask for in a punk album and then some. We truly believe we just listened to 10 tracks of melodic punk greatness.

With the release of their second full length, ‘Holding On To Hope,’ collectively released on Thousand islands Records and Pavones Records, The Last Mile are moving forward and intensifying their sound. The aesthetic of the record was designed and laid out by Stealworks a.k.a. John Yates, known for his genre defining work with bands such as Lifetime, Jawbreaker, Alkaline Trio, Bad Religion, Alternative Tentacles, and so much more.

Recorded in Vancouver by long-time collaborator, Jesse Gander (Brutus, Japandroids, DBS, Daggermouth) and mastered by Jason Livermore at The Blasting Room, these songs are a natural progression of the bands signature heartfelt songs, leaning in a more modern hardcore vein while still retaining their punk rock roots.

As soon as you press play on “Holding On To Hope” you are taken on a remarkable musical experience that is second to none. The Last Mile, pours everything they have into every song and it shows.

We can honestly say with our whole music loving heart that there isn’t a bad song on “Holding On To Hope “ The Last Mile write authentic and heartfelt songs that move your mind and soul as well as your feet.

“Farewell For Now “, “Anything” and “Hot Box” are all solid well written musical compositions that we absolutely loved . The one song that stood out to us on “Holding On To Hope” was “Water Mary” The melodic and sonic tones complement each other perfectly .

Flawless vocals ( which feature both make and female vocals) and next level musicianship make “Holding On To Hope” an absolute can’t miss.
