Geographer
In the summer of 2005, after a series of deaths in the family, Michael Deni left his hometown in New Jersey for San Francisco. He spent the next several months with his guitar and a synthesizer, turning that tragedy into the songs that would soon become the foundation for Geographer.
With the additions of cellist Nathan Blaz and drummer Brian Ostreicher, Geographer spent the next year cutting their teeth in the Bay Area, winning over crowds with the heart-pounding epics that make up their debut record, ‘Innocent Ghosts’.

With the additions of cellist Nathan Blaz and drummer Brian Ostreicher, Geographer spent the next year cutting their teeth in the Bay Area, winning over crowds with the heart-pounding epics that make up their debut record, ‘Innocent Ghosts’.
After being selected one of three ‘Undiscovered Bands You Need To Hear Now’ by SPIN Magazine and garnering considerable word-of-mouth praise from their energetic live shows, the band signed to San Francisco-based label Tricycle Records, releasing a 7” single for the song ‘Kites’ in October 2009.
‘Animal Shapes’ follows up ‘Kites’, building on the synth-driven aesthetic of the single, while flirting with darker, more esoteric underpinnings. The record merges Geographer’s aptitude for crafting beautiful, haunting melodies with textural sounds and poly-rhythmic energy, marking an evolution of their distinct style.
With the overwhelming response to the release of ‘Kites’ and ‘Animal Shapes’, punctuated by a dynamic and engaging live set, the band has already begun to make an indelible mark on the ears of music fans worldwide.

Kites
by Geographer
My wings are like this
All my words on his lips
And my brain is on edge
I'm next to the bed
Where i saw you
My weight is like his
We both lost what we kissed
And my hate burns like this
In my hands in his fist
And my love is so quick
Like the legs of my kids
All the worlds i could lift
Only fit
Where i saw you
Pile lover upon lover
'til we're covered with skin
There's nothing to discover
From the thunder and lightning
There's no way to recover
This is love not loving
But now we are all eachother
I was a brother when i saw you

So I lost this song for almost 10 years when my Ipod got destroyed along with my entire collection of music on itunes. I had this jam stuck in my head the whole time, but I forgot the band name along with the name of the song. The only lyrics I could recall where, "when I saw you", which made my life hell till now hahahahaha. I searched my youtube history so many times thinking I could find it with no luck, and also tried to search the only lyrics I could remember which were those 4 words. I had so many damn unsuccessful attempts to find this one song! Right now I am so happy to have this song back, after almost 10 years of hell! Hahahaha

My thoughts exactly! I just texted this to a friend the other night and when introducing this song I said "sick ass beat!" Great minds think alike... right?! :)
