Getting Killed by Geese

Getting Killed, the fourth studio album from New York's Geese, dropped on September 26, 2025, on Partisan Records and Play It Again Sam, and it's the first thing they've made as a four-piece since guitarist Foster Hudson left in late 2023 to go into academia. Cameron Winter, Emily Green, Dominic DiGesu and Max Bassin cut it in January 2025 at producer Kenneth Blume's Putnam Hill studio in Los Angeles, barely a month after Winter's solo debut, Heavy Metal.

It sounds like a band that jammed its way to the songs: grooves that hammer one figure until it turns hypnotic, guitars scraped raw, structures that refuse the obvious exits. Winter swings from a hushed croon to a strangled yelp, spinning surreal pictures of violence, power and transformation. "Taxes," "Trinidad" and "Cobra" were among the singles, critics swooned, a couple of year-end lists put it at the very top, and it went to number one on the UK Independent Albums Chart.
