MC Lars -
This Gigantic Robot Kills (2009)
I've been a bit a nerd kick lately, finally listening to MC Frontalot and now I've moved up to MC Lars. I wouldn't really call this album 'nerdcore' because it talks more about social trends, conformism, ecology, and even suicide. All the songs are very well written, chock full of wit, literary references, and thoughtful observations. MC Lars is really eclectic with his sampling choice and beats, ranging from a pop-punk backing, to ska, metal, and so on. Overall this was an album I should have listened to last year when it came out, however late is better than never.
