My hot take on Geese: Gesse is really bad
Poast new message in this thread
Date: May 3rd, 2026 1:11 PM Author: actually smart, genuinely retarded opinions tp I don't like Geese. How is this being forcememed so hard? This is terrible indie rock. I'm surprised how many people keep clicking on this shit. This guy has no motion imo.
The songs don't even seem to have melodies or concrete structure. Just sounds like aimless crooning. How is it getting so famous? |
Date: May 3rd, 2026 1:13 PM Author: UhOh beato made a good point recently that despite all their hype and playing coachella and snl and shit they have very low monthly listens on spotify, more akin to a regional act. then there's this:

To me it's just like I've never seen a band that shitty get so famous overnight. They literally have no good songs, not even a big single.
It's funny because I think Sombr is a talentless hack and he's up to the gills in industry plantdom. The difference is this dude is basically going to try and become the next Harry Styles. He's utterly shameless and he will obviously convert to being a pop star, and in pop no one gives a single fuck if everything about the artist is manufactured.
But in rock it's different if you're inauthentic you're getting called out fast. This is why Greta Van Fleet never got big. People could tell it was fake from the beginning |

Yet somehow whiter, but in a bad way. Like the type of whiteness that invented wonderbread and food with no seasoning.

Date: May 4th, 2026 10:54 PM Author: actually smart, genuinely retarded opinions tp it's been a really long time since any great rock bands have broken through. the last really big American rock band to have a breakout mainstream moment was Greta Van Fleet, and they are rightly criticized as inauthentic copycats who had nothing original to say (the point of rock is to be unique and original icydk).
So when there's any motion in the space it's going to cause a stir. There's obviously a lot of jealousy out there from people who wanted to be famous and didn't get it. That's a big part of rock culture is whining about people who get famous. A lot of butt hurt guitarists crying about it. No doubt.
I think Rick Beato said it best about their viral marketing team: they have 20 other bands signed that didn't get famous, so there had to be something special about Geese. For whatever reason they are resonating with people. So is Angine de Poitrine.
That being said I think the main issue with Geese is that it's musically quite boring and unoriginal. There's an episode of Trackstar where the host plays Geese for Billy Corgan and tells him 'this is the next big thing in Rock' and Billy diplomatically nods and goes, "haha, yeah, haha" without spelling it out. You can tell he didn't like it from the clip. I don't like it either. The fact that dcpoast thinks it's great is a surefire sign that it sucks given his track record of loving shit that's terrible going back decades.
So yes you're right a lot of butt hurt rock musicians who never maed it are crying about some young guys living their dream. But at the same time I think virtually any listener knows it's actually just shit and it IS a head scratcher why THIS particular band blew up and not any of the other equally shitty, indistinguishable terrible modern American rock bands. It could have been anyone if this is how low the bar is. |
