Press Reviews When I received New Jersey's Sixty Miles Down's debut four song e.p. two years ago, I was immediately captivated by their rock sound, haunting melodies, and depressive lyrics with doomy atmosphere. It was a combination mastered by only Alice In Chains but now Sixty Miles Down has put their own spin on things. On this debut full length, the band has re-recorded those four songs ("Broken Down", "What You Never Had", "Darkness Fall", and "Resolution") and added eight new tracks for almost an hour of enjoyment. The production work well, the music has a raw edge while John Mosco's vocals have a more polished sound, emphasizing those catchy harmonies. "Say Goodbye" sets a nice groove with a hint of industrial elements and effects. "Sink of Swim" has the best vocal harmonies with a closing guitar groove that is exhilirating. Sixty Miles Down have filled a void in rock music today. There's a dichotomy at work here, never has music so dark been so damned catchy.
