REVIEW: The hyperpop duo 100gecs set the internet ablaze with their 2019 album ‘1000 Gecs.’ Now, they’re back with ‘10,000 Gecs.’ Is that too many Gecs or just the right amount of Gecs?
opens with the famed THX Deep Note, followed by a Michael Bay-size epic in “Dumbest Girl Alive.” “I took 10 Advils today/I’ve got bruises on my thighs/Plus, I gave away my brain/I’m the dumbest girl alive,” sings Les, her voice often collapsing into glitchy distortion. Les, who handles most of the vocals, is a kinetic frontwoman who sounds as if she’s about to laugh . Her ready-to-rage yelping makesfeel relentless. Yet her apparent glee masks real pathos.
” “757” is weighed by youthful angst and “boulders in my shoulders,” while “Dumbest Girl Alive” ends with a deflating admission of despair: “Can you show me how to cry?”ultimately rises and falls on songcraft. “Doritos & Fritos” is a burst of surrealism and dance-punk angularity that lyrically pairs “eating burritos” with “Danny DeVito.” But “Hollywood Baby” feels too literal in its rebel-girl sentiment, even as the duo mock the idea of celebrity.
