    Myth seems like one of those albums that can really thrive in a post-critical world.

    The multitude of sonics on Myth prove Geographer to be something of musical adventurers, even if the various paths they travel down don't always lead to success.

    Geographer is one of those bands whose sound creeps into your head and makes a home there. Myth built a whole new story to their already sturdy foundation. It is emotion filled and the combination of Michael Deni's flourishing vocals, Nate Blaz's solid strings and Brian Ostreicher's unique percussion form the perfect of musical ingenuity. Each song compliments the other and collectively create a well balanced album with a harmonious vibe. If you are a new comer on the Geographer scene this album is an excellent frontier to set out on and if you are a Geographer veteran you will not be disappointed by the incredible musical landscape.… Expand

    Animal shapes was an instantaneous classic stacked with incredible tracks, so Geographer had some high expectations to meet with this release. The band seems like their really trying to expose themselves and establish their sound with this record, and that they did. While exhibiting their experimental electric theme, they keep an infectious groove that is elegantly paired with Michael Deni's well-controlled vocals. Stand out tracks like "Lover's Game", "The Boulder", and "Kaleidoscope" present the album's defining moments; as where "Shell Beach", "Blinders", and "Vesijarvi" sprinkle in some experimental gems that give it character. All in all, an interesting and captivating listen.… Expand
