Brooklyn, New York rockers Geese have followed in the footsteps of their label mates IDLES by employing renowned producer Kenny Beats to produce their album. IDLES had him work on Crawler (2021) and Tangk (2024) which resulted in a less straight post-punk sound than they previously had. Similarly, Geese's sound has evolved differently in a positive way as they sound like they've truly found their own voice and parallels to their contemporaries are less obvious than in the past. They sound as if they've been handed a plug back into the 60s/70s era of free spirited jam sessions - squint and you can imagine them having Can's Damo Suzuki guesting on '100 Horses'. 'Taxes' sees them embrace a hip-hop-esque patchwork approach by stitching together various sounds that fit together, whether sampled or played by the band. Singer Cameron Winter sounds as if he's fallen in love with music for the first time all over again and his impassioned connection to the sounds around him make for a magnetic performance.
