Moving, released by Rough Trade Records on 27 January 1984, is the third studio album by the Raincoats. It was re-released in the US by DGC Records in 1993, and in the UK by Rough Trade in 1994, with a different track list and altered cover art. On its original release, the album reached No. 5 in the UK Indie Chart. It was their last album for 12 years.
