New York City’s Geese announces their new album ‘Getting Killed’ and shares the lead single “Taxes” – LISTEN HERE, following the announcement of their winking ‘Getting Killed’ US tour a couple weeks ago. The new single is a fitting opening statement for Geese’s next musical chapter, an accomplished smorgasbord of sounds jammed together to form a melodic whole, led by the divine jestering of frontman Cameron Winter’s soaring, aching vocals. To celebrate the announcement and release of “Taxes”, Geese will be playing a free pop-up show in New York today.

 

Geese’s third studio album, ‘Getting Killed’, obliterates any expectations the band has set with their discography to date. After lighting the fuse with the beguiling post-punk experiments of their 2021 debut album ‘Projector’ and the rollicking cowboy rock record follow up of 2023’s ‘3D Country’, ‘Getting Killed’ examines the wreckage of blowing up those ideas and picking up the pieces to form their own bold and exacting vision. The album was recorded with renowned producer Kenneth Blume in his LA studio over a month-long stretch and what Geese emerged with is a chaotic comedy of epic proportions. ‘Getting Killed’ balances a disarming new tenderness with an intensified anger, with each member of the band wielding an earned, unshakeable confidence and a hearty disdain of conventional music structures.

 

Last month, Geese announced ‘The Getting Killed Tour’, which will see the band headline shows across North America this Autumn. This tour is the biggest headline run of the band’s career to date.

 

Their 2023 sophomore album ‘3D Country’ has developed into a modern classic, with Rolling Stone calling it “one of the best New York rock albums of the past few years” and Paste calling it the “best rock record made by Zoomers ever.” Geese have played festival sets at Bonnaroo, Governors Ball, Lollapalooza, Dog Days, Pickathon, Newport Folk Festival, ACL and more, and have toured with the likes of King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard, Greta Van Fleet, Spoon, Jack White and Vampire Weekend. Geese first started teasing music from the new album at festival sets earlier this year, whipping up fans into an absolute frenzy on the heels of frontman Cameron Winter’s widely lauded and mildly befuddling solo debut ‘Heavy Metal’. Critically acclaimed by The New York Times, Pitchfork, i-D, GQ & more, Winter’s idiosyncratic, soul-searching personal journey has led him back to Geese, who have a bold, powerful new record in the chamber with ‘Getting Killed’.

 

Stay tuned for more from Geese coming soon.
