Ian Miles is back off the bat of Creeper’s new EP, American Noir. Which was a follow-up from the band’s 2020 sophomore album Sex, Death & the Infinite Void. Ian plays a crucial part in Creeper and has been gearing up for his own solo effort Degeneration, Death, Decay for a little while now since the single “Truest Blue”. He has been a part of Creeper since their first self-titled EP and has seen them through The Callous Hearts (2015), The Stranger (2016), and First album Eternity, In Your Arms (2017). Now working alone, as he has done before, he has embarked on one of the most personal things written by Ian.
After a summer of Adoring crowds at Slam Dunk and Reading & Leeds, Creeper guitarist Ian Miles has been busy in anticipation of his first solo album. Showing his triumph after a difficult struggle with his mental health that led to him writing from a psychiatric ward. Creeper guitarist Ian Miles announced his album earlier in the year. His second single “Overwhelmed”, shares his haunting yet beautiful acoustic tone as Ian Miles explores the human psyche in a heartbreakingly honest way. A poetically dark album on the same level as Have A Nice Life’s Deathconsciousness (2008) as it looks inside itself for the answers. You can get your copy of the album in beautiful pink and black splatter print here, be sure to grab your copy quickly before they sell out.
