Dark Miles is the former lead singer of the now long-gone band MOSH from Portugal. Dark Miles is actually Pedro Lima (a.k.a Pete Miles) and hot on the heels of the dark and deep song “Your Heart Is An Empty Street” (released in January) is his immense new song “When The Lights Go Out”. The new track has the makings of a long-lasting epic anthem. His voice is full of power and soul. The song is about freedom and equality and being a decent human. I can hear Depeche Mode, Mansun, Chris Cornell, Iggy Pop, Pearl Jam, Mark Lanegan, and even a shot of 90s Bowie in this gorgeous and classy new offering from Dark Miles. The video is stark, hard-hitting, and thought-provoking. It also made me incredibly angry at the world we have made. It is also age-restricted so you will have to watch it on YouTube, but make sure you do watch it.
Miles said of the song, which was recorded during the covid pandemic, “It was a period where we found ourselves deprived of some elementary freedoms, and consequently rediscovered how fragile these freedoms are,” he added that “whether in what we feel, in what we do, in what we want and in what we are, this freedom is constantly put to the test, particularly in the times we live in, in which the nightmare of war has once again stripped many people of their human dignity.” Check this song out, I think you will love it, I do!
