  2. 10.0 |   Paste Magazine

  4. 10.0 |   Consequence Of Sound

    There’s a lot for fans to obsess over when it comes to Getting Killed. The tracks are stuffed with interesting production and orchestration, as well as sticky stanzas Winter-heads will undoubtedly be referencing throughout the rest of the year

  8. 9.0 |   The Line Of Best Fit

    If Geese are a real band, then Getting Killed is a real album. One that cements them as no longer excellent imitators of the bands they once tipped their hats to, but worthy equals

    The recent metamorphosis of the New York band, led by singer-songwriter Cameron Winter, has produced one of the best, strangest, and most compelling rock records of the year

  10. 9.0 |   Clash

    An album designed for the dedicated listener over the passerby, better experienced in its whole than in individual parts. It’s a bold proposition and one that places the band firmly within the future of the rock canon

  11. 9.0 |   God Is In The TV

    Where commercial radio and even some more alternative stations playlists are starting to resemble a tub of Cornish clotted cream, Geese are laying eggs of avant garde, melodic, bonkers pop songs. Quackers

    The band’s best effort yet

  13. 8.4 |   Beats Per Minute

    A project that frequently sweeps the listener into a trance, ruptures that trance, and then reestablishes it

  19. 8.0 |   Mojo

    A third album bursting with intense energy and sparkling invention. Print edition only

  20. 8.0 |   Uncut

    The curveballs keep flying through the climactic triptych - the Kid A-evoking eruption "Bow Down", the incantatory "Taxes" and the hallucinogenic "Long Island City Here I Come". Print edition only

  21. 6.0 |   Exclaim
