Geek Rock/Nerdcore

[dfcrackhead]

I just recently discovered the nerdcore genre and have gotten quite a bit of it, but I wanna know, do you know any good Nerdcore artists or Geek Rock bands that are really good or funny?

Just clear things up with me here, is nerdcore like that guy who makes raps about old 8bit games?

Yeah like that, but not exclusively like that, I've listened to some nerdcore that is more about programming and stuff than just old video games or video games in general. It's just nerdily themed hip-hop pretty much and it's pretty funny sometimes

Lemon Demon seems relatively Nerd-rockish. I love them. For good examples of their songs, check the Ultimate Showdown or Samuel and Rosella.

I loved the ultimate showdown, I got it for Frets On Fire once lol...Didn't they do a song called Knife Fight? Or maybe it was Big Rock or something like that...I dunno my girl let me listen to a few funny songs and one was by Lemon Demon and was pretty strange
