Get Him Eat Him hails from Providence, Rhode Island, but its members are a cross-country lot who converged during their first year at Brown with a love for weird noises, oddball humor and an appetite for music and sandwiches. Singer/guitarist/electronic manipulator Matt LeMay (the band's elder at 21) wrote many of these songs while still in high school (and still the youngest staff writer at the then fledgling Pitchfork), but it wasn't until the band's current line-up of Jason Sigal (guitar, vocals), Raf Spielman (keyboards), Jeff Wood (drums), and Joe Posner (bass) came together that they became the monster heard on Geography Cones, the band's debut (recorded by Jay Pellicci (Deerhoof, Erase Errata). Each song is an impressive combination of taut melodies, jerky rhythms, and a frighteningly keen turn of phrase, brought together by spastic sex, flailing hostility, nervous energy and, as Matt squawks on the stomper "Shirt Like A Couch," an endearing and furious "awkwardness" that has garnered the band the attentions of and invitations from the Arcade Fire, Xiu Xiu, the Wrens, the Constantines, Ted Leo and Broken Social Scene.
