Me in the retirement home bopping to the new release of 100 quadrillion gecs
@TeIe.gram.me.theneedledrop272 gec
assuming they release a new album every 3 years, each to another power of 10 then 100 quadrillion gecs will be released in 13 more album cycles, or just 39 years!

@@stolenshortsword thanks
you WISH you could retire that soon in this economy
Anthony, it shocks me that you refuse to acknowledge Frog On The Floor as a generational defining song, one that will live on forever
i actually really like it. its cute :)
@@Roadrunner-n9k you are
The Dr. Worm of this generation
shut up, he already gave the album an 8.
just imagine the frog song getting carried.
Frog on the Floor? Where did he come from? Nobody knows…
Crazy how the two people that invented music are on their second album.
they just blessed us with music 2
Cyranek, my man, hello 🤟
Facts my brother in christ
almost. carti invented music, but 1000 gecs put their own spin on it, which is respectable. but cartis yet drop to drop music😒
@@col7004yea
I can't believe he counted and named ALL 10,000 gecs in just under 8 minutes. Absolutely insane. You should enter this into the Guinness World Records. Wow.
Most gecs named by a bald music nerd in 8 minutes 🤯
World Gecord
22.22 gecs per second is insane
His mother is very proud
yall r so clever
Frog On The Floor alone makes this album of the century. It also caused World peace, and cured all depression, thanks, gecs siblings.
Frog 🐸 on the floor!!👇 Where'd ❓ he come from?!? 🏡❓ Nobody knows 🤷 where'll he go!?!?! 👉🗺️❓
i honestly don't understand how he doesn't like frog on the floor but he likes lil pumps debut. i fell in love as soon as i heard that song lol.
Frog On The Floor is honestly my favorite song on the album, a song about an awkward person (99% of their fanbase can relate) at a party. Gets my neurodivergent brain hopping.
I made a playlist of the album without that song. I... i just can't.
@@tealeaf3210 seriously? but kept tmwpitus?
Instant classic. Now we wait another 2 years for 100,000 gecs
early 2022
I don't know. Personally I would like them to show us, maybe not in the next album but eventually, what is a gec. I want a 1 gec album.
@@kevinortiz2097 that’s fair
Powers of 10 are infinite
@@kevinortiz2097 One song, one gec. The entire album
I can't remember the last time I actively burst out laughing listening to a song before this but when the Sicko Mode drums kicked in on Dumbest Girl Alive I almost fell off my chair. You just gotta let yourself have fun sometimes.
Wait, these are the Sicko Mode drums ???
The skrillex remix
Yeah that caught me really off-guard lmao, it was great
@@poyo0000 Just the 808s
"You just gotta let yourself have fun sometimes." what a non-statement lol, as if you didn't the sicko mode drums would be BAD. its an amazing sample it goes hard as fuck
"I Got My Tooth Removed" joins "Tommy Gets His Tonsils Out" in the hallowed pantheon of fun punk songs about oral surgery.
Oh man that song is so much fun
What about "Ache" by No Doubt or maybe "Youth Decay" by Sleater-Kinney
I think it was a metaphor for bottom surgery actually
@@singletaxjax307 first time I heard it I thought the lyric’s were “I got my junk removed” so yeah I think it’s intentionally a metaphor
"My teeth hurt" by Ezra Furman !!
This album sounds like when you and your best friend are drinking monster mixed with drugstore red wine and you kinda feel like they're dropping hints so you both lean in for a kiss but then you throw up on them and you both laugh and they leave cause they have work in two hours and you want to go to the skate park but you trip over your board and chip a tooth
And then get that tooth removed?

In terms of albums released by 100 gecs in 2023 this is definitely in my top 1.
Removing the joke, this is till just my favourite album of this year so far in general
early 2022*
@@Autumnnnnn1 Like fr, I am actually surprised at how much I loved this album, and it's especially weird considering this year has had a lot of fantastic music so far and this is the one I'm sticking for? No joke, if this is not my AOTY it's still AT LEAST in my top 5 of the year as of right now.
@@obzzidian94 would agree with you however the new Danny x Peggy album now has beaten it
👉🤙Congram telegratulation you have been shortlisted to select my winner!👆🖕🎁🎁
Dumbest Girl Alive is probably one of the best off the album I kind of wish he would have talked about that one.
Honestly! That one has the most replay value in the entire album.
1. I'm a little sad that there was no mention of what a stone cold banger the opening track Dumbest Girl Alive is
2. Totally agreed that it is respectable that they didn't just drop a quick easy album during the hypestorm of 1000
3. I think the flatter production of TMWPITUS sounds awesome once you get past the surprise of it. It's one of my favorite tracks on the album.
4. The use of more natural vocals instead of the heavy filtering and up-pitching is great, in my opinion. The gecs have taken another step forward as creators and put themselves out there even further. I think their natural voices are a great presence on the album and heightens the honesty of the project.
Thanks for the review Anthony!
I think the reason why autotune was so prevalent in the last album was that Laura felt her natural voice was too deep at the time so she pitched it up. However, she's had speech and vocal therapy since then so she can naturally speak with a more feminine voice
@@superwhizz114 that is kinda a reach
@@clubgenesi8785 she literally admitted as much at NME
I’m really glad Gecs didn’t rush this. They could’ve scrambled to throw together an album back in 2019, but they resisted the pressure and took their time. So many artists have derailed their careers by rushing to strike while the iron is hot off a viral song or album. It says to me that Gecs care a lot about their craft and their musicianship, and it shows on this album. It also gave them some time to work out their live shows, because when I saw them last year, they crushed it. Good for them.
But it would also be really funny if they finished this record two years ago and it took them forever to clear all the samples
it kinda sounds rushed though tbh. However, I'd wager 100 gecs is one of the few artists that have the privilege to do so while still making it sound great. You can feel 1000 gecs has more "editing" going on compared to 10000 gecs.
Same with JID
@@joeybatmania9327 fr they should be done with another album by now.. 757 performed live 18 months ago lmao
Saw them Nov ‘21 and it was awesome. They sang the hall out of those songs and kept the energy UP
I was not expecting such a high rating, it sounded like he was being critical to the majority of tracks.
He kinda glossed over the banger factor but I assume the fact that like Dumbest girl alive, 757, Billie knows jamie, and Doritos & Fritos, and Hollywood Baby all being certified bangers played a big role in his rating.
The comedic tracks are less banger-y but also a gecs signature.
I felt lukewarm ab the whole album except for the singles :/
@@boobysr Ok
@@hermit5941 okay
@@conniescurse7325 757 is cool but the studio version is just dogwater. The terminal 5 live is just better
Hard disagree on Frog On The Floor. Shit slaps and just puts me in a good mood and is a great bit of levity after the first heavy three tracks. I kind of think this also is why 1 Million Dollars exits, where it's so weird/offbeat in comparison to Billie Knows Jamie's insane ending ( Not unlike 800db Cloud into I Need Help Immediately) .
Also - can't believe you didn't mention wacky funny THX Noise in front of Dumbest Girl Alive
That thx sound was the first thing I ever heard from gecs and it fucking killed me lmao
Frog On The Floor is such a bop and really something that only Gecs could’ve made. Anthony criticised the ‘flat delivery’ but I love Lauras relaxed retelling of a story voice when she describes the frog doing a keg-stand, feels not too dissimilar to Weezer’s Undone The Sweater Song.
There's also the Sicko Mode drums in Dumbest
@@maboesanman yepyepyep
@@datdude3327 the juxtaposition of Laura’s energy after Dylan’s intro is fucking beautiful, and that she never acknowledges it’s a frog except for a cheeky little pun, it’s peak stoner feelgood
Really see a lot of growth on this album musically. It’s still intentionally dumb, but it deceptively well executed. They give that energy of Early Ween and every generation deserves that.
Except Ween are good and 100 Gecs are shit.
Ween comparison is spot on, dont know why I never made the connection myself
yeah i feel like it was super easy for them to mess up the vibe they gave with their first album but they kept true to themselves and i couldnt be happier about it
Ween was silly, they weren’t annoying
Big fan of both Ween and Gecs and always made the comparison, I've seen people get pissed about it and it just seems stubborn - wait until the Gecs drop their Mollusk (since they've technically just done their Pod).
When this album dropped. I was having a really shitty day, and work absolutely destroyed me mentally. The album released while I was at work and I got to listen to it on the car ride home when. I got out of my car and went inside I was smiling, and I felt OK about the day I had. This is not like a dramatized story like “oh they cured my depression” or whatever. Just being able to hear the new gecs made me smile on a really bad day. Because of that, I think this album is going to score higher for me.
Frog on the Floor is basically a dopamine overdoze
This was a very wholesome comment you wrote and totally get what you mean how some good music can sometimes put a smile on your face despite your world feeling like total shit. That little brief relief from crushing depression that some good music can bring sometimes is true magic no matter how fleeting the feeling can be....then we go to bed and wake up to start the next horrible day hoping we get a chance to feel that same kind of relief again, even if that next release fades away almost as fast as it first happened.
Laura clearly has a massive grin on her face when singing Frog on the Floor, and it's absolutely infectious
The Anthony Kiedis line makes that song amazing and give the album an extra point. Don't denied that. If Laura said "Fantano" instead of "Kiedis" you probably would've give this album a 9.
Fantano just has to make his name rhyme with penis somehow
Anthony Fantano,
Fucking with my band though
anthony fantano,
he's kind of a fan tho
wait even better:
anthony fantano,
i've heard he's a ho ho
anthony fantano
suckin my piano
Wow, i didn't expect the review to be just Anthony singing Frog On The Floor for 8 minutes
Frog On The Floor is such a bop and really something that only Gecs could’ve made. Anthony criticised the ‘flat delivery’ but I love Lauras relaxed retelling of a story voice when she describes the frog doing a keg-stand, feels not too dissimilar to Weezer’s Undone The Sweater Song.
Yeah the detached affectation makes it even funnier
Frog on the Floor interestingly reminded me most of Phish of all bands.
I was never a huge 100 Gecs fan but this album is a 9 for me. It's kind of incredible how all-over-the-place the album is, yet it still feels really tightly produced. And they still keep it incredibly fun to listen to. It kind of reminds me of when I heard Strawberry Jam for the first time.
Absolutely - sadly I've yet to ever find another record that sounds close to Strawberry Jam
I was a fan but this album is a 5 for me
@@44gg37 still a 5?
this album genuinely felt like a fever dream to the point where i even found myself bopping to frog on the floor i vividly enjoyed 2 of the gecs really doing their thing as always
When are the other 9,998 Gecs going to have their time to shine? None of them were featured on a single song!
The "instrumentals" are actually created a capella by the other gecs
They added 10 times the gecs to this album and it only got them 1 point higher than their last album? How many gecs does this man need??
Tell me about it, at this rate 100000 Gecs will actually need an infinity of gecs just to keep up with inflation.
YOU HATE THE BEST SONG ON THE ALBUM?!????!? FROG ON THE FLOOR IS BEST SONG OF ALL TIME
Agreed, this is bullshit Anthony
Antonio Fontana is just mad the frog has a more active social life than him.
hate
At 1st it sounds like a generic kids tune but then it slowly grew on me and I realize it's done right and memorable , I unironically like it
It’s like he does it on purpose
Even when he gives something an 8 he's wrong. FROG ON THE FLOOR IS AMAZING
I love this album, I wish frog on the floor wasn’t on it
frog on the floor is fun for the first two listens then it becomes boring compared to the rest
My favorite song on the album
@@poni-sz2pm nah dude i been bumpin it daily. Idk why this track is so controversial and unexpected from them
@@poni-sz2pm Wrong. I’ve listened to it 30 times already. And still I want more.
wasnt really diggin the singles at first but after hearing in the album every song is just so catchy and with the genre hopping from track to track i cant stop listening to this and having fun. love it as much as the first album :)
I feel a similar way. I liked the singles when they were released, but I love them in the context of the album. This album brings me so much joy
@@vinceeager8553 I also liked the singles, but I think they ruined the listening experience a lot. If you listened to all the singles and live performances, you pretty much listened to the whole album. I never thought the album was going to be that short with only 10 songs, I was expecting some unreleased stuff like fallen 4 u or can u hear me now tbh.
Same, I wasn't feeling the singles but In the context of an album I ended up enjoying them more somehow
757 is such an incredible song
Personally I am obsessed with this album already and Frog On The Floor will forever be in my heart since its release. Also I just really love the more raw vocals on this because while I really enjoy the vocals on their past work I just cant help but think about an interview with Laura talking about how she is inspired partly by nightcore and having a higher pitched voice because of vocal dysphoria and with that in mind and the fact that they really both just do whatever the fuck they want it just comes off as a very confident album. Like this is one that really says to me "this is who I am and you can't put me in a box" but not even aggressively so because if you have heard their previous albums and the unreleased stuff on youtube and soundcloud, the progression of their sound really tracks like it's super different but the sound was always there so its not even like a "fuck you Im doing this because you want me to be that" but more of a "you'll never really know know know know know know know
anything about meee mememe mememe
There’s a sense of roughness on their debut album’s vocals that isn’t really present here, but 10,000 still managed to capture that “two friends having the time of their lives creating something together” energy that draws me to Gecs’ music
You don’t think Dumbest Girl Alive or Hollywood Baby have a roughness? Particularly on the fat guitar riffs
@@datdude3327 I meant more in terms if the vocal performances, should have clarified that
thank you fantano for giving my favorite album 10,000/10
10,000/100 actually
Well it should be 100,000/10 which equals 10,000 imo
I kinda felt like the joke of “I got my tooth removed“, or at least one of the jokes, is that it definitely feels like it should be a metaphor but it just blatantly doesn’t work as one.
Like, instead of invoking tooth imagery to talk about a break up, it feels more like it’s invoking break up imagery to talk about a tooth.
I mean its just as heartbreaking either way
I thought it was invoking tooth imagery to talk about gender affirming surgery
"It's not enough Gecs" - Gecthony Gectano
You really committed to the bit by dumping a bucket of 10,000 geckos on your head
The Coheed and Cambria riff on "Dumbest Girl Alive" is still sending me
Nah, the true OGs know better
CUT MY LIFE INTO PIECES
THIS IS MY LAST RESORT
Which c&c song?
@@becketclark9942 it bears a strong resemblance to their track ‘Vic the Butcher’ from the first Afterman record. But yeah it’s a common set of notes for a metal riff
@@becketclark9942 Welcome Home
bridge is the acoustic opening from Welcome Home looped. Took me two go arounds to catch it.
I can officially say that after listening to this album for a month straight, I now know all the lyrics to "One Million Dollars".
Can u put them down for me I wanna memorize them too
Give it a few years and we'll have 100,000,000,000,000 gecs
loved this record. there were moments that were super reminiscent of Mindless Self Indulgence's best production
also butthole surfers.
>Mindless Self Indulgence
Man, this band was dumb, but in a neat way... then Jimmy Urine turned to be an unironical actual pedo...
one million dollars instrumental feels kinda MSI
Had the same thought
The Most Wanted Person in the United States is the best song on here tbh
8 is a fair score, personally it's a 9. Great little album. Lives up to the debut, possibly even better.
Can't believe he gave this whole album a 0 just because, with the best teeth in the game, he couldn't relate to I Got My Tooth Removed.
ironically I LOVE laura's vocals on frog on the floor, it made me want more raw vocals from her
Frog On The Floor is easily one of the best songs on the album and of their career
It’s definitely close to their best, it’s so simple but really feels like a song only Gecs could’ve made.
It reads as a love letter to late 90’s, early 00’s pop music and culture. Fantano mentions the Limp Bizkit influence, but also sounds like Dylan Brady uses the horse sample from The Avalanches’ “Stay Another Season” in Most Wanted Person in the US. More of a stretch, but the vocoder on One Million Dollars kinda reminds me of Fitter Happier on OK Computer.
Both maybe a stretch, but a lot of nostalgia on these songs - not unlike the What’s New Scooby Doo and Kiss Me Thru The Phone interpolations on 1,000 Gecs
Yeah it’s all of these things seen through a nostalgic lens for millennials
What song do they interpolate kiss me through the phone on?
@@craz5634xxx wud neverstop!
This album really makes your F E E L like 100 gecs
Listening to Frog on the Floor for the first time was the most in touch ive felt with my queerness in a long time.
trans anthem
Ok
Lame
Because the frogs are turning gay?
When I listened to Frog on the Floor for the first time, I thought to myself, “this is the most in touch I’ve felt with Sam Atkinson’s queerness in a long time”. What a weird coincidence
dumbest girl alive is a genuine banger, gives me flashbacks to some of the UK indie girl bands. I'm really enjoying Hollywood Baby also, full early Wheatus vibes in the chorus that somehow isn't just pastiche. I dig it. I don't really care if it's meant to be dumb, or whatever.
DRY VOCALS!?! was the frog doing a keg stand not enough?
I discovered 100 gecs from your review of 1000 gecs, & I'm glad to have discovered them.
10000 Gecs (also Snake Eyes EP) to me is just as fun and chaotic as the debut & remix album.
If I had to choose my favorite tracks: Mememe, Frog on the Floor, I got my Tooth Removed, Runaway, Doritios & Fritos and Hollywood Baby.
Dud3, listen to toothless, it's their best produced song, and it's brostep/dubstep!
@@adityabhujbal6891 Toothless is a good song, but personally from the remix album, I would never stop U Hannah Diamond remix, Ringtone with KKB & Rico, Hand Crushed ft. Fall out Boy, and Gec 2 u Dorian Electra remix are better.
Surprised you didn't talk more about dumbest girl alive, one of my favorite tracks from this album. Really sticks to the gec tradition of comedically out there but somehow cohesive. From my view it is basically the gecs take on all the bassy grungey deep voiced "trap" (idk if that is right) music that has been getting increasingly popular since the first album released. Like Corpse husband. THX intro, Sicko Mode drums, crazy train riffs and just an unreasonable amount of bass all combine together into a self deprecative song that feels very similar to said "trap" songs, but is distinctly gecced up. Fucking wonderful.
Also, I was very much getting Rage Against The Machine vibes from Billy v Jamie, but idk if that's just me.
Overall, I'm geccing for life. 10/10 haven't enjoyed an album this much since 1000.
Agree with the rating but Frog On the Floor is genuinely the best song on the album BY FAR
One melon dollars
One melon dollars

Tony giving this album the credit it deserves is everything I wanted for 2023 so thanks melon 😘
He didn’t give Frog On The Floor the respect it deserves. Not angry just disappointed.
1:57 *Whatever the gec they want
i love this album. such a great improvement from the previous record. really looking forward to their future output
the outro of 757 is probably my favorite part on the whole album
This album is like what Nevermind is to neurodivegent folks
Thank you for all the effort you put into making videos Anthony.
What is it with melon hating on songs about frogs (example: M83 - Raconte-moi une histoire)?
Anthony first put me into their 1000 gecs album, and It wasn't for me at the time. After seeing him give it an 8 and wondering if I was being trolled, I listened to this one and really liked it. Idk if I gave it a lie unbiased shot or my music taste changed a little, but all I know is the album is short and goes hard af. Lowkey is the type of music I probably won't tell most of my friends I listen to, but I'm officially a fan, lol.
You should come back to 1000 gecs!
frog on the floor. whered he come from?
This album was my intro to them and the instant I got done listening to it I tracked down tickets to a sold out show. I love their use of synth bass layered with guitar all over this album, it reminds me of NIN which is my favorite band.
Frog on the floor, unironic banger. How did I know you were going to fuck it up again?
Billy Knows Jamie is SUCH A BANGER
I'm just still so sad that Can U Hear Me Now didn't make it to the album. It is probably my all time favorite track from them and I feel like it would have fit great on the album. Also, I wanted to hear a studio version. :'(
they realized the auto tune version on the last album was superior
I've never heard of gecs and this album is the greatest thing I've ever stumbled across. Disagree with every critique you've given. Most wanted person, frog on the floor, one million dollars, all bang, Anthony.
Welcome to the gec community my man🦎
my new favorite band honestly. something about their music itches my brain.
how did Thisthony Mantano go through the whole album and not talk about the killer opener, Dumbest Girl Alive?!
or hollywood baby
It really takes skill to create 9,000 albums after 1000 gecs, impressed!
Just learned of this band a couple days ago and I am loving them.
I swear the breakdown at the end of Billy Knows Jamie must come from when Anthony said Doritos and Fritos needed a metalcore breakdown
Billie Knows Jamie is what put this album over for me. Been obsessed after I heard that.
Hollywood baby is the greatest song I have heard in the last 5 years
frog on the floor in worst is a sin
Frog on the Floor makes me smile from ear to ear and giggle every time I listen, I think it’s a highlight on the album for sure
Me listening to the tone of the review: this is gonna be a 5 or 6 for sure
Me seeing the score: 😳 wow😨😱
You can tell that they really put all 10,000 of their gecusies into making this album.
Went to the concert yesterday in San Jose and even though I had only partially listened their new album, it was still a bop
Anthony, what do you think about Com Truise?
This is an album of the year contender. It's so good!!!!!
I'm gonna be honest, listening to the full album front-to-back would probably give me 5 strokes, but I respect this for what it is
I've listened to this album on repeat all day, every day since it came out.
trust me this one is more catchy than it is spastic
@@themilestudios Given that you'd be able to listen to it about 53 times/day and it's been out for four days, that's approximately 1067 dodged strokes for Wilo Polis. That man is cheating death.
Remembered when you reviewed mememe with that cover like years ago, 10k gecs was only released now?
rumor has it the record label stopped then from putting it out a year ago
Fantano: feeling a light 8
Gecs: put emojis on my grave
10,000 gecs feels like a love letter to the music from the late 90s to early 00s, it feels like a cd that I would have burned back in high school.
Seeing 100 Gecs in less than a month, the was a little fear that this album might face the sophmore slump. Nope! Incredible banger that I look forward to getting down to. I hope to see people leapfrogging to Frog on the Floor. Currently #4 on my top albums so far this year, I do not seeing it getting bumped out of my top 10.
I would love to hear a full remix album to this one too!!
Frog On The Floor has been stuck in every crevice of my brain since this release
CIs perspective of 10.000 gecs is WILD
I think this is the best pure rock n roll record to come out in the last few years. I got my tooth removed is am absolute gem.
Tbh 100 Gecs probably made hyperpop the vaguely defined genre it is today
757 is my favourite. That star tie fighter sample just goes so hard after the 1:26 mark.
Melon, you can’t just say Frog On The Floor is your least favorite song because there weren’t any frogs nearby.
specially as God is sending a plague of frogs to his current location.
@@miserirken 100 Frogs
its just so many gecs. so many.
Can you review the new The Blaze record Jungle next?
Frog on the Floor in the WORST? I question your soul
I can’t wait until they release 1,000,000,000 Gecs
a decent amount of the production sounded like it was inspired by that really great satanicpornocultshop record with the even longer title, definitely a really sonically dense and wildly produced record. billy knows jamie is insane
i love satanicpornocultshop
I listened to it just now for the first time. Damn, this shits good. Thanks
Frog on the floor disrespect makes me want to riot
honestly didn't see the score coming with how i felt the review was going? pleasantly surprised
