Moving Mountains moving away from post rock on new release

In a recent interview, Moving Mountains discussed what people can expect from the band's next full length and follow up to 2008's Foreword:

We sort of built a fan base primarily around a lot of people who are into post-rock bands in bands sort of in that scene. And this record is really not like that. It's sort of more in the post-hardcore scene that we're also sort of a part of that we grew up listening to. It's far more like heavier and more aggressive and more to the point. There's less like 40-minute ambient reverb delay interludes. It still sounds like us, there are still parts that sound like epic or whatever you want to say, but its definitely like way shorter, way more to the point, and heavier. So far it's been heavier.

Yeah, one record that still to this day is my favorite record has been released is Underoath's Lost In The Sound Of Separation. When that came out in like 2008 it was like absurd, and I was totally blown away by it and it totally revamped how I thought about writing music. That record had a big influence on me.

The band also note that they are currently without a label and so have not begun recording. Check out the interview here.
