Geography Of The Moon are a Scottish-Italian/French post-punk band based in Glasgow, born from meeting in East London in the summer of 2016.
Blending a haunting, magnetic vocal with sharp indie lyricism, they build hypnotic soundscapes from looped guitars, pulsing drum machines and searing, unexpected guitar solos. Largely influenced by bands from the ’80s and ’90s — somewhere between psych rock, post-punk, pop, new wave and indie rock — they create their own mashed-up style: Death Pop.
On stage, nothing is fixed. The band lean into spontaneity, drifting into improvised, improbable melodies. After joking in 2021 that they could play 1000 gigs in under a decade, they set off on a self-declared “never-ending tour” and have since played over 1,400 shows — headlining Shambhala Festival in Thailand and performing across Japan, the U.K., France, Germany, Thailand, Vietnam, Cambodia, Nepal and India. Summer 2026 will see them take on Europe and the U.K.
Their 2020 album ‘Fake Flowers Never Die’ caught the attention of BBC Radio 6 DJs and was added by Vic Galloway of BBC Scotland to his ‘25 Bands to Watch Out For in 2021’ list. Their 2022 EP ‘The Unraveling’ was featured as Record of the Week on BBC Radio (Nan Gaidheal), while the single ranked No. 11 on The Scottish Herald’s ‘Top Scottish Songs of 2022’.
Their 2024 album, ‘Aberdeen Hiroshima’, is a hauntingly atmospheric journey blending post-punk grit with ethereal shoegaze textures, weaving dark, brooding melodies and shimmering guitar work with dub and poetry breaks between highly danceable bangers. It explores themes of magic and faith, politics, belonging, feminism and even quantum physics. It was featured as Album of the Week on Parisian station Le Village Pop and was also nominated for the SAY Award (Scottish Album of the Year).
