The audience is now deaf.

You know, this is the 56th out of 57 albums Ive listened to. This whole time Ive been annoyed because nobody saw fit to give me any hip-hop. Lots of pop, electronic, and rock, but very little rap. Well, apparently I shouldnt have this for last, because 100 gecs opens with rapping! The overall effect on the first two songs feels pop adjacent, with rapid fire flow layered with vocal effects. The experience is certainlywell, lets just say I should be careful what I wish for.

This is very much not my thing. The vocals are too whiny for me. The production, while certainly varied, doesnt appeal to me. I have nothing inherently against autotune but I would prefer it to not be used every other measure of every song. I absolutely have nothing against atonal noise but the bands usage of atonal noise doesnt appeal to me at all.

However! I feel like every album I start shitting on an album, a song emerges that I like. So it is with Frog on the Floor, a goofy ass ditty about, well, a frog on the floor. Its devoid of the irritations of the first three songs so it takes top spot by default. Doritos & Fritos reminds me of <another band who hasnt shown up yet> in that cutesy winking sort of way (which basically means I dont like it).

Looking the album up so I can hopefully understand it better it seems intentionally silly and boundary pushing. I got the first part but not the second. This is surely a matter of not connecting in a subjective way, yes? Apparently this is a more accessible album than their prior work? Maybe Id enjoy their prior work.

okay I laughed at the random ass ska song near the end.

I cant really pinpoint why I find 10,000 gecs so irritating. Im sorry if this writeup does not satisfy you. Rest assured, between us, I am the least satisfied.
