Let the guitar tear your heart apart as Miranda finds himself not being able to get away from his former lover. As the first track Miranda wrote and the one that earned Movements attention, “Protection” discusses his conflicting thoughts on his mental health and how much safer he feels reflecting rather than confronting the outside world. It physically hurts to rank “Protection” this low because it’s still everything. Here is a definitive ranking of every Movements song: Movements is so good at its job it’s one of the only bands in the world that doesn’t have a subpar song, which means ranking its entire discography is a gutsy move, but it must be done.

Yes, those listening to Movements typically need the relatable lyrics alongside the screaming that reminds us someone shares our pain and we’re not alone. Whether it’s frontman Pat Miranda channeling both his and your pain into every lyric, Ira George making heavy magic with the guitar, Austin Cressey rattling your brain with the bass, or Spencer York softening the blows of life with his drumming, Movements has created an irreproachable group that builds a form of solace for those who need it most. The post-hardcore quartet has only been together for half a decade, but it’s created an EP and two LPs that outshine nearly everything released in any genre during the time. It always feels like a “ pink cloud summer” when Movements is turned on and the pain starts to wash away. Movements released its latest album, ‘No Good Left To Give,’ on Sept.
