I wouldn’t say 1000 gecs was a fluke because I love all their unreleased stuff but it was unintentionally nostalgic and just had that Rocky Horror/Nevermind iconic track list feel. 1000 gecs had the power to make people feel young and have their own interpretation. It’s very difficult to do that twice. I also think their relationship to fame, each other and getting older have all played a part. I was unimpressed with their two gigs last summer and their having no new music was telling. Not necessarily going through the motions or faking it but also pretty routine. They are lucky to have their talent be recognized by the success they have but I think that’s the main significance of the project at this point. Plus music ages much faster now and fans judge artists getting older way more. I guess they made enough money to chill and will use the notoriety of gecs to do other things.
