100 Gecs: Snake Eyes [Dog Show/Atlantic EP, 2022]
Sonically, these three songs in six minutes split the foreshortened difference between the disconnected DIY digitalis of their 10-track, 23-minute 2019 debut and their more candidly rocklike major-label 27-minute follow-up four years later. Sonically the difference either way is bottom, which beefs up the laughs so effectively you wonder why they asked Skrillex to carry the middle on his brawny shoulders. Looks good on their resume, I guess. B+
