Stallone started when Juan Montoya [currently of MonstrO, formerly of Torche] met drummer Evan Diprima at work in 2009 in Atlanta, GA. After playing some tunes together for self-entertainment at a friend's house, they realized that a creative energy had revealed itself. Without a general direction in mind, Montoya and Diprima put together a Frankenstein of ideas that would later turn into a completed vision.

Thinking of Stallone as only a kind of recording project, the then duo recorded a handful of songs with Craig Carlson in October of 2010. They enjoyed and believed in the music that they were making in the studio and decided to form a full band that could perform the material live. Stallone then became a serious endeavor.
In late 2011, after searching through a number of people, Thomas Gonzalez and C.J. Ridings fit the bill, joining as second guitarist and bassist. As a full band, Stallone sounds more powerful than ever. With four members and an unyielding vision of music without pretension, Stallone is set to sail smoothly through today's ever growing and constantly blending music scene.

The music focuses on riff oriented, drop tuned melodies combined with an uplifting expression of aggressive energy. The instrumental aspect of Stallone will take you to a place of your own mental design that mirrors the very tone set by the music itself -- a thrashing, thunderous, sludgy, metallic throwback to the golden days of metal with a feel good outer lining.

Stallone’s Debut 6-Song EP, American Baby, will be released on October 30, 2012 via Miami, FL-based Limited Fanfare Records

Miles Away
Stallone Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Right when I look into your eyes
all I can see is a thousand miles
The light is flickering right this time
and all I can is a thousand miles

I'm running into the highway
trying to relive

Sure, I would let go this burden of thoughts

Crave, I would not play
We are the same, we're all the same

Overall Meaning

In Stallone's song "Miles Away," the lyrics capture the essence of a longing and distant relationship. The opening lyrics, "Right when I look into your eyes, all I can see is a thousand miles," depict a sense of physical and emotional separation. The person singing is unable to bridge the gap between them and their loved one, making the distance feel insurmountable.

The line "The light is flickering right this time, and all I can is a thousand miles" suggests that there might have been previous attempts to reconnect or resolve the distance, but they have all fallen short. The flickering light symbolizes hope, but it seems to dim every time they try to bridge the gap.

The next set of lyrics, "I'm running into the highway, trying to relive," signifies a desperate attempt to escape the longing and reconnect with their loved one. The highway represents a path towards reunion and rekindling the relationship. The person is willing to take any necessary steps to relive the connection they once had, even if it means leaving behind everything else.

The final line, "We are the same, we're all the same," highlights the universality of longing and desire for connection. It implies that despite the differences between individuals, ultimately, we all share the same fundamental need for love and companionship. The song speaks to the commonality of human experiences and the ache we feel when a relationship feels miles away.

Line by Line Meaning

Right when I look into your eyes
Upon gazing deeply into your eyes

all I can see is a thousand miles
I perceive an immense distance stretching before me

The light is flickering right this time
In this moment, the illumination is intermittently wavering

and all I can is a thousand miles
My entire focus is fixated on an extensive journey

I'm running into the highway
I am hastily advancing towards the bustling road

trying to relive
seeking to experience anew

Sure, I would let go this burden of thoughts
Certainly, I would release the weight of my contemplations

Crave, I would not play
Desire, I would not engage with

We are the same, we're all the same
We are indistinguishable, each and every one of us
