Long before Geese rose to prominence as a leading force in indie rock, Emily Green—Geese’s guitarist—joined forces with Olive Faber of Sunflower Bean to forge Star’s Revenge. The outfit issued its self-titled debut in 2022, delivering a compact, hooky, highly alluring blend of garage-rock grit and indie-pop charm. They’re back now with news of a follow-up LP, and it’s arriving soon.
Star’s Revenge II is slated for release three weeks from today, landing on Black Friday. Our first preview, “Don’t Worry Dynamite,” is a Faber-led track that surges with momentum, radiates charisma, and features slide guitar that elevates the whole project. It lands somewhere in the realm of twee-inflected classic rock, like the Replacements if they’d wound up on Sarah Records.
“Don’t Worry Dynamite” arrives with a video directed by Faber and Arielle Herman. Watch it below.
