Hardcore Move wants to inspire change

Posted in Records on June 26, 2023

August 11 is the due date for Black Radical Love, the debut full-length from Boston hardcore band move, a 5-piece that last released Freedom Dreams EP in 2021. The new full-length has 12 songs and will release via Triple B Records.

Vocalist Corey Charpentier notes:

We want people to listen to these songs and become energized to act, to go and find out what organizations they can join, or create one of their own in their neighborhood, town, or city that is working towards the world we all dream of liberated and free from continuous state oppression. We want to compel people to get down at our shows, stage dive, pit, crawl on the floor, grab the mic from us and scream these lyrics right into our faces, and quite literally move!

Move will be on tour with Initiate later this summer.

Check out the lead singles, "Imperialist Reign" and “Summer Trend" here:
