Interview: Meet Geese, the New Brooklyn Post-Punk Vanguard

Artist of the Month is an accolade given to an up-and-coming artist or group who is poised for the big time. In November 2021, we give the nod to Brooklyn post-rockers Geese as they drop their highly buzzed debut album, Projector.
Geese are living the Gen Z life while putting New York City guitar bands back on the radar for what feels like the first time since years. When you hear about musicians born in the early 2000s, people who view the '80s the way millennials did the '60s, you may expect genreless hybrids of drowsy synths, half-rapped verses, and algorithm-friendly emo hooks. There are the '90s indebted Snail Mails and pop-punk-reviving Meet Me @ the Altars out there, but few make references to Television, Yes, and Pink Floyd like Geese do.
It's not that there's never been a band like Geese; their influences are clear enough whether hearing them talk or play. They're as plugged in as anyone else in their generation, only they're using different ports and extracting different data. Other up-and-comers may build off of the sounds being passed back and forth on social media; Geese are using those same resources to investigate the icons of their local scene. As a result, we may be witnessing a new vanguard of NYC, led by a group of 19-year-olds who are just getting started.
