comment
10,000 gecs is the second studio album by hyperpop duo 100 gecs. It was promoted via a tour taking place in 2021, and was expected to release early 2022, but was eventually delayed several times before finally releasing on March 17, 2023.It goes in a distinctly new direction from the duo's previous album, having a smaller focus on that album's hyperpop sound and a bigger focus on different subgenres of rock such as Nu Metal and Punk Rock, while still distorting the flying fuck out of them in their special Gec way.Preceded by 1000 gecs.

Comedic Work, Serious Scene
 10,000 gecs (Music) / int_1849f58e
comment
Comedic Work, Serious Scene: While the album mostly consists of not very serious songs in terms of meaning, it also has its fair share of serious ones. "Dumbest girl alive" is believed to be about all of the feelings during transitional surgeries following being transgender, which is sung by Laura Les, a transgender woman. "Hollywood Baby" is seemingly about all the stress that comes with being in the music industry and the shitty corporate vultures and grifters who force bad deals on new artists who don't know better. "mememe" is most likely about leaving a dysfunctional relationship, with both people taunting the other about how they only ever Loved A Shadow and never really knew them.

comment
Auto-Tune: Some auto-tune is used for distortion of the vocals, but unlike their past releases, this album features songs with Laura and Dylan using their natural voice more.

Bait-and-Switch: "I got my tooth removed" goes from a melancholy waltz about leaving a hurtful relationship to an upbeat ska ditty, revealing that it was about a toothache instead.

Shout-Out
 10,000 gecs (Music) / int_c75df49a
comment
Shout-Out: "Doritos & Fritos" is one to MF DOOM, with the title being a reference to the line: "And get more cheese than Doritos, Cheetos or Fritos" from Accordion by Madvillainy. The cover art for the single release is also a reference to MF DOOM, having a fork held up to Dylan's face so that it resembles the mask that Daniel would wear. While it isn't one to MF DOOM, the line "I'm swimming to the ocean, but there was a commotion" references "Narwhals" by Weebl & Bob. The line "I play violin on sinking ships" from "I got my tooth removed" is probably one to the sinking of the RMS Titanic, where it is believed that the band that was on it while it sank played "Nearer, My God, To Thee". The opener of "I got my tooth removed" is an affectionate parody of heartbroken 50s sad teen ballads, like those by Dion. "Dumbest girl alive" opens up with the classic THX 1138 blast. "The Most Wanted Person in the United States" has Laura bragging about Anthony Kiedis sucking on her penis.

Incoming Ham: "Dumbest girl alive" (and the album itself) get announced with the classic head-exploding blare of a THX Soundsystem, interrupted with gunshots and Laura screaming "WOO!!!" Bookended by "mememe" announced with a heavily distorted classic DJ shoutout ("BACK ONCE AGAIN!"), modified into GEC ONCE AGAIN!

Horrible Hollywood: Used as a metaphor for the music industry in "Hollywood Baby", filled with shallow suits promising wealth and luxury at the cost of selling out and getting enslaved to how they want your music to sound.
