Taste Test: Dante Palminteri grows cold between ‘Miles Apart’
The pop newcomer dazzles with his new single, a struggle to stay afloat after a breakup.
Welcome to Taste Test, a song/video review series of SubmitHub-only gemstones.
Kanye West pierced the heart when he unfolded the “the coldest story ever told” over a decade ago. Glistening pop beginner Dante Palminteri has certainly felt such frost bite shock his skin and seep into his veins. With “Miles Apart,” which casts a chilly breath on the back of the neck, the singer-songwriter carves his own heart out of ice, as he tries to move on from unimaginable heartache but finds himself lingering on the passion, the lust, the intoxication of it all. “It doesn’t hurt less / To call you heartless / But it gives me something to do,” he sings, the taste of Cupid’s arrow clinging onto his every word. Palminteri, whose most obvious influences include Ed Sheeran and John Mayer, weaves a crystal web of emotions, ever so gently balancing between the past and present before he completely bottoms out. “If I lost your love, it wasn’t my intent,” he whispers.
