Wymond Miles steps out from the shadows with Passion Plays, a moody and magnetic 7-inch that showcases his talent for glam-soaked, noir-tinged songwriting.

On the A-side, “Passion Plays” unfolds like a midnight confession—brooding, romantic, and dripping with cinematic drama. Miles’ baritone vocals slink through layers of echoing guitars and vintage synth textures, evoking both classic post-punk and modern darkwave without ever feeling derivative. It’s a slow-burn anthem for the romantically doomed. The B-side, “Act of Light,” keeps the candle burning with its shimmering arpeggios and haunting vocal delivery, balancing elegance with a subtle undercurrent of menace.

Released on Sacred Bones Records, this 7-inch is a perfectly crafted mini-epic—proof that Wymond Miles isn’t just a sideman (he’s known for his work with The Fresh & Onlys), but a frontman with his own distinct vision. These tracks feel like they belong in a lost European art film, full of faded glamour and existential yearning.

Pressed on black vinyl with minimal yet striking artwork, Passion Plays is ideal for fans of Echo & the Bunnymen, David Bowie’s Berlin era, or anyone who likes their rock with a little eyeliner and a lot of atmosphere. This isn’t just a record—it’s a dark little jewel.
