8 Miles High was meant to be the debut album of Australian nu-metal band Superheist. Due to problems with record company and line-up changes, it was eventually released as an EP instead.
Like the previous Ep Chrome Matrix, 8 Miles High was recorded at Backbeach Studios in Rye, Victoria by D.W Norton and Mark Rachelle.
This EP had lineup changes in the form of Si Durrant leaving just post of recording, Drew Dedman came in to fill his shoes and keyboardist Fetah Sebawi was now a permanent member of the band.
