music
Movements' music is described as a mixture of “shallow indie rock and posty emo ”. There are also a few elements of post-hardcore , with singer Patrick Miranda completely dispensing with screaming and shouting on the album "Feel Something". Not so on your EP "Outgrown Things", here scattered screamings and shoutings are used, which fit well into the sound design. The band's first releases evoke musical similarities to Title Fight , La Dispute and Touche Amore . She is now regarded as one of the most important representatives of the newly emerging emo wave.
