#milex interview

[uhbasicallyjustmilex]

ways journalists have really described alex turner and miles kane:

"Wearing matching outfits, gazing into each other's eyes, talking about their instant connection… Alex and Miles' claims that they wrote the Shadow Puppets' album about 'a girl' weren't fooling anyone. Quite simply Alex and Miles are hopelessly, madly, enviably in love with each other. Please lads, just be true to yourselves, embrace your feelings, and have a massive snog - we can't bear the tension any more."    - NME

“If there’s one sexual dynamic at work tonight at the Usher Hall, it’s homoeroticism. The Last Brokeback Mountaineers are a camp pair of strutting cocks, to be sure.”  - The Wee Review

"Speaking to them together feels like interrupting a conversation that's been going on since 2005." - NME

“Looking over at his manspreading counterpart, Kane gleefully points at Turner’s exposed bulge. Not wanting to be rude, I look away.” - SPIN

“Watching them finish each others’ sentences, agonise over their answers to how well they know each other and embrace when it’s time to leave... well, you’d need a heart made of Hoosiers CDs not to find it incredibly sickly sweet.” - NME

“Alex Turner and Miles Kane turn towards each other with fond looks when we suggest they’re best friends. Like doodle in each other’s notebooks BFF status. After spending 15 minutes with them though, we’re pretty convinced they’re going to grow old together in matching tracksuits.” - Sidewalk Hustle

“Miles Kane looks like he’s gagging for a great big man-hug (and maybe more...) off his buddy. These two have spent overly long admiring themselves and each other.” -  The Wee Review

“As soon as I decide to just get started without Kane, Turner accidentally Facetimes him from his pocket, and the two erupt into a fit of giggles, our conversation veering off course for the third time in as many minutes.” - Consequence

“While Turner stares on the ground during his answers, Kane watches him like a lovestruck teenager from the side.” - Musikexpress

“Say this for Lennon and McCartney, or Plant and Page: they never had their own romantic rock ‘n’ roll portmanteau. But “Milex”—Miles Kane and Alex Turner, for the uninitiated—have just that enviable kind of bromance. The two even moved to Los Angeles in tandem a few years ago. No wonder multiple “Milex” pages have cropped up on Tumblr, breathlessly re-posting the duo’s every embrace and droll quip; there is fan fiction, too, the kind that would make a coal miner blush.” - Interview Magazine

'"Alex Turner is like a princess in need of his prince Miles's assistance to get down from a tower." - Dutch Review

"You'd be forgiven for barely noticing anything beyond the front of the stage, though. Like a pair of teenagers egging each other on, Turner and Kane are the most infatuated frontmen since the Pete Doherty and Carl Barat." - Hot Press

"If Miles Kane had a 'hard on' for being a front-man before The Last Shadow Puppets, he's grabbed the opportunity Turner's patronage presented him with both hands. So to speak." - Q Magazine

"The feeling is contagious too, as though we're looking in on star-crossed lovers finally reunited." - Hot Press

#okay this is really just the tip of the iceberg #but i think that's quite enough to be getting on with for now #a couple of details: #i've only quoted stuff from interviews that were actively with them or live reviews of concerts #there are also a couple of interviews in here that... yeah. i very much don't like the tone used or how the journalist has portrayed them #(see: the musikexpress one which is just so insulting to miles) #but they had quotes that were too good not to be included here #so yeah #i just wanted to make clear that just because i've included a quote here does not mean i agree with its source material #i'm really just fascinated by the sheer number of journalists who have described them in this light #also there are sources for almost all of these but a couple of them i couldn't find the links i needed but i know they are legit quotes #milex #alex turner #miles kane #the last shadow puppets #tlsp #milex interview #lulu posts

Im probably the only one that never heard about this interview but OMG😭

« The third part of the trilogy will be released in a few years » 

Whats is next for miles and alex ? A lot of concerts, with a passage already sold out at the Olympia the 29 of march. "The third part of the trilogy will be released in a few years", says Alex Turner. Will We have to wait another eight years to hear it ? "nine years", he replied.

( i translated it myself so there’s maybe error in the translation sorry 🙏)

#how i didnt knew about it ? 😭😭😭😭😭 #miles kane #alex turner #milex #tlsp #the last shadow puppets #tlsp2 #tlsp3 #milex interview #tlsp interview #eycte era #eycte tour #eycte #arctic monkeys #2016

Reminder that Alex Turner knows about Milex fanfiction and had the most bizarro response when a journalist asked him about it. He said,

"I’ve been told about it… Stories where we slip into one another. Does One Direction have that? And who fucks who? They fuck all at once? And they don’t want to write stories where we fuck the One Direction? Like Cadbury who puts in the same packets Dairy Milk and Ritz crackers?”

#why hasnt anyone written a Milex X 1D fic for this man? #i dont know what they were on but tlsp interviews during eycte era were truly unhinged #milex #the last shadow puppets #tlsp #alex turner #miles kane

[hesterias]

I feel like, as a fandom, we collectively forget about this moment, and I’m here to remind everyone it exists and it happened.

Miles: I LOVE IT

Alex: You got old and wrinkled…

Miles: Shavambacuuuuu (🥺)

Alex: *giggles* … I stayed seventeen

Miles: Just youuuuu

Alex: You lusted after so many… *moves right in front of Miles* I stayed here with Wolverine (🥺)

Both: *stare longingly at each other*

Like???

#what a death I die every time I watch this #truly #his wolverine?? his gambit?? that one interview?? SHAVAMBACU??? #bury me #milex #alex turner #miles kane #tlsp #mine

[subtle-as-an-earthquake]

I nod along attentively, but the truth is, I can't concentrate

#milex #tlsp #miles kane #alex turner #eycte era #LOOK #LOOK AT HIM #this boy is so smitten it's outrageous #I am weeping into my cornflakes #goddddd I am so normal about them #I am as normal about them as miles is about alex in this interview #in other words Extremely Normal™️ #I know there's other amazing gifsets out there of this interview and these moments #but I just wanted some bigger gifs so I made 'em #anyways this is insanity #excuse me while I go sob about them in the shower

[last-shadow-puppet]

“I said, ‘I’m gonna go and play ‘Town Called Malice’ over at the Fonda with Paul Weller’,” beams Kane. “’You don’t mind, do you? I’ll come in early tomorrow.’” “I said, ‘Where the hell are you going?’” Turner says. “’We’ve not finished yet!’ Turner then affects a hard-done-by house-husband tone. “I said, ’Oh, don’t worry about it: I’ll just be here.’”

you can poke your head behind the mountain peak, don't have to mean that you've gone into hiding

#you can't see it but you know alex is smiling like a fool #well probably both of them are really #I'm still feeling so emotional after yesterday #i don't mind us not getting more than this #i don't mind them hugging in the dark #it just shows that they don't have to put their love on display and brag about it to everyone else #they can just show each other and that's enough #that's what love is about no? #they're not hiding they're just not shoving it in everyone's faces #(they know we know anyways) #if you look up the definition of true love their name will pop up #“we've gone through a lot together” miles said in a recent interview and it could've made me sad because it includes the hard times too #but it's precisely because of the hard times and not letting those beat them and tear them apart is why they're still here #and still thriving and loving each other and being best friends #they really said “we're gonna fight everything that comes our way and we're still gonna hold each other's hands at the end of it” #aaaaaand I'm crying #don't ever doubt their love guys #miles kane #alex turner #milex #arctic monkeys #the car tour #tlsp #the last shadow puppets #505 #body paint

[blacklight-animal-print]

the moon has such importance in both of their songs as a missing-your-love/missing-how-it-used-to-be metaphor and also when they look at the moon they think about each other. by the way. if you even care.

#alex turner #miles kane #tlsp #tlsp interview #milex #helppp. somebody help meee

[franklyimissparis]

rewatched the miracle aligner music video for the billionth time. still gay.

#hope this helps! #need to extensively interview the director about it #tlsp #milex #miles kane #alex turner

[yellowloid]

Interviewer: Did you miss each other?

Alex: We’ve seen each other sufficiently. I mean there’s been a month, maybe two-month long…What would you say the max is?

Miles: Six weeks, two months, maybe. When I was on tour in Europe and Alex was on tour doin’ AM, it probably did go more. I lied, just then.

Alex: There’s a few moments when you think… Starin’ out the balcony at the moon, wonderin’ where is he, what is he doin’ now, who’s he kissin’.

#i couldn't find the source to that interview but.......... same energy........... #miles. miles baby. please call him #he's waiting for you to do it and too dumb to take the first step himself #milex #miles kane #alex turner #tlsp #ramblings

[uhbasicallyjustmilex]

[nicoscheer]

alex: it feels like fruitella

interviewer: in what way?

miles: well we’re both a bit fruity aren’t we?

alex: we can both tella… we can both tella good melody

(X)

I adore how they lean towards/into each other

Alex biting his lip while staring at Miles’ lips and Miles looking like he wants to pin Alex to the next best wall and rip his clothes off, oh so subtle please get a room

#we’re both a bit fruity #his cackle #alex turner #miles kane #Milex #darlings we know #neither of you hide it very well #especially not when you’re staring at each other’s mouths during interviews #quote #faves

[hesterias]

i need evidence that milex canonically likes depeche mode bc they’re so dm-coded to me truly

#i don’t think i’ve ever seen an interview where they mention dm #if they don’t i might die #mine #milex

[28-destiel-505]
