In March 2017, drummer Glenn Harvey was kicked out of the band after allegations of sexual harassment were made against him. Also against singer Eddy Breweron allegations of theft and invasion of privacy were brought. However, the musicians announced that the allegations were false and will file criminal charges. On September 24, 2018, Moose Blood was announced as the opening act for Good Charlotte's European tour . However, it was announced on the same day that the band had been unloaded from the tour due to the ongoing allegations against the musicians. A few hours later, the musicians spoke up in a statement that spoke of “taking a step back” and indicated either a musical break or even the final end of Moose Blood. In the recent past, Movements had already canceled a joint Australian tour due to the allegations. Furthermore, the band had to cancel a concert tour through North America .
