The 2021 lead single, track five of Projector, six minutes 47 seconds.
Geese, from Projector (2021)
All Projector songs are credited to Geese. The lead single was released on June 22, 2021 and premiered on Apple Music 1 with Matt Wilkinson. DIY's Lisa Wright called it the band's breakthrough single with moody Interpol anxieties, essentially four songs rolled into one; Bassin said the band tries to dial the sound back while trying to do everything it possibly can. NME's Rhys Buchanan heard a drum opening that Girl Band mastered and a Thom Yorke-like vocal line. A Spin piece, which we know only from a search summary, quotes Winter as saying they wanted the first statement to be as big as possible, and, on a perfume lyric, that he likes to leave it up for interpretation. We found no other authored explanation.
Setlist.fm lists it in 90 of about 361 Geese setlists. On the NON-COMM session for XPN on May 3, 2022, Winter and Hudson were at the piano before it, and it slid into slammed keys. Clash's review of the second night at Barrowland in Glasgow, dated August 27, 2026, says it was a tour debut and the only Projector song that night. Our upload is the official lyric video. We found no chart entry, covers or samples.
