Geese wrap up 2025 tour at Brooklyn Paramount shows.
The final, resonant chords of the Geese 2025 tour have faded into the storied air of the Brooklyn Paramount, a venue that, for this band, will likely never feel the same again. This wasn't just another stop on the itinerary; it was a poignant full-circle moment, a deliberate nod to the raw, hungry energy of the post-punk scene from which they erupted.Think of it as the last time you'll catch them in a venue where you can feel the sweat from the stage, a place more akin to the legendary CBGB than the sprawling, impersonal arenas that now beckon. The Paramount, with its rich history echoing through its art deco halls, served as the perfect, almost prophetic, setting for this transition.It’s the kind of intimate space where a band’s sound is still a physical presence, where the frantic, wiry guitar lines and the drummer’s relentless, jazz-inflected beats aren't just heard but felt in your chest. For the fans who packed the floor, this was a collector's item—a final, privileged glimpse of a band on the very cusp of a seismic shift.The setlist felt like a curated journey, a greatest-hits-in-the-making that paid homage to their breakout EPs while teasing the more ambitious, polished production of their forthcoming major-label debut. You could hear the evolution live; the older tracks, like 'Low Era,' were delivered with a newfound, almost weary confidence, while the new material hinted at a broader sonic palette, suggesting influences ranging from the art-rock complexities of Talking Heads to the anthemic quality of early The Strokes.Industry whispers, of course, have been circulating for months—rumors of bidding wars, of festival headlining slots being penciled in for next summer. To see them command a room of this size now feels like having seen The White Stripes in a Detroit garage or Arcade Fire in a Montreal church basement; you just know you’re witnessing something that is about to become much, much bigger.The band's performance was charged with this knowledge, a mix of nostalgic ferocity and anticipatory grace. As the last encore faded and the house lights came up, the feeling was unmistakable: this was the end of a chapter.The Brooklyn Paramount, in its glorious, compact scale, was the period at the end of the sentence defining their ascent. The next time Geese return to New York, the stage will be larger, the crowd will be vast, and the connection, however powerful, will be different. They've officially graduated from the club circuit, and this two-night stand was their valedictory speech—a blistering, unforgettable thank you to the city that helped build them, before they set their sights on conquering the world.
