Milestones are a pop-punk band from Manchester, United Kingdom. On the eve of the release of their new EP, Equal Measures, the band are gearing up for a pretty jam-packed year, and I was recently able to speak with them about the release, their summer plans and what they hope to accomplish through their music.
How would you describe Milestones to those who have never listened to the band before?
Milestones isn’t like many pop-punk bands out there today. People compare our sound to very different bands from different genres and movements, and each song reflects the diversity we’re trying to push. There are elements of a maturing Hold Me Down You Me At Six, whilst there are characteristics of Young Guns and more rock [type] bands. There seems to be a song everyone likes, so you really won’t hear the same song twice. But still, it will sound like the same band as opposed to a compilation of different genre’d artists.
You guys came together fairly recently. What made you want to pursue music for a living?
I think for myself, it was the idea of sitting at a desk for the rest of my life and thinking, “What if?”. I’ve always wanted to go out and do this kind of thing, [to] travel and work with like-minded people and give back what music did for me to kids as they grow up and find themselves. The whole concept of Milestones is to achieve greater things and to set your sights higher and higher each step (or stone, haha) of the way. So the motivation to do those things and be on stage, like we have watched our heroes do since [we were] young, played a massive factor in me wanting to do this seriously.
