    Like virtually everything else on ‘10,000 gecs’, there’s nothing about the track [ ‘One Million Dollars’] that should work, and yet it not only commands your attention throughout, but demands replay after replay. ... ‘10,000 gecs’ is insanely fun and impressively ambitious.

    100 Gecs pack more ideas into 23 minutes than most artists who release 70+-minute-long albums. With “10,000 Gecs,” the duo has reached a “South Park” level of brilliant absurdity.

    ‘10,000 gecs’ is a thrilling ride from start to finish, catapulting through genres across 10 unrelenting and imaginative bangers.

    ‘10,000 gecs’ is a sub-thirty-minute blast of the duo at their best, creating some truly bonkers music and refusing to ever conform.

    While the twosome’s rambunctious revelry may appear wholly flippant upon first listen, their music, and 10,000 gecs as a whole, is far more sophisticated than it seems.

    Tantalisingly, this record also feels like the next building-block in a potentially genre-defining body of work. As much as we can’t wait for 100,000 gecs, however, there’s a mountain of fun to be had before we get there.

    100 gecs can also be (perhaps willfully) irritating. ... At their strongest, though – as on punky standout Doritos And Fritos – 10,000 gecs is a wonderful exercise in letting creativity run amok with no rules at all and carefully catching the resultant gold.

    Although this album shifted from the sound of 1000 Gecs, I still love it. The punk rock sort of music Gecs are moving into fits them well andAlthough this album shifted from the sound of 1000 Gecs, I still love it. The punk rock sort of music Gecs are moving into fits them well and is best seen on tracks like "Hollywood Baby" and "Doritos and Fritos". Its a shame that more hyperpop focused songs were not included in this album however "757" somewhat fills that void. Best song on the album "Doritos and Fritos"… Expand

    After listening to this album I want to bleach my ears and jump off a bridge into a river with a 200kg stone tied to my ankles.
