Moving Mountains Pruning of the Lower Limbs (Atlantic Blue)

2xLP. Atlantis Blue Vinyl. Moving Mountains have had a lot of time for self-reflection. It's been more than a decade since the Westchester, New York-formed quartet last released an album, 2013's self-titled LP that only further cemented them as a quietly essential cornerstone in the modern emo, post-rock, and atmospheric genres. Now, after years of silence, the band has emerged from hibernation with renewed clarity: more deliberate, more dynamic, more determined to savor every moment.Pruning Of The Lower Limbs, their first album for Wax Bodega, stands as an effortlessly beautiful reawakening for vocalist/guitarist Gregory Dunn, drummer Nicholas Pizzolato, bassist Mitchell Lee and guitarist/pianist Joshua Kirby, reigniting the most inescapable parts of their musical souls in ways that are equally urgent and introspective. There's magic in each subtle, slow-burning crescendo, the sound of a band reenergized to be back together.
