Yes, you disclaimered yourself, but it&#39;s just sad to me that no one who is sopposidly into nerdcore seems to understand that without 2 skinnee j&#39;s, nerdcore very well may not exist. And come on, riot nrrrd, to me, it defines nerdcore. Rapping about being &quot;picked last for gym class&quot; (among other fine lines) it&#39;s rap for nerds, by nerds, my personal definition of nerdcore. If any of you poser nerdcore fans out there havn&#39;t heard of 2SJ&#39;s, I suggest you check em out.Jhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18146489407172040834noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15042066.post-68348908672373149822010-01-05T19:01:12.643-05:002010-01-05T19:01:12.643-05:00I don&#39;t suppose anyone knows what&#39;s happened to The Grammar Club&#39;s website?Anarchangelhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00368238749398756016noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15042066.post-47764600271964571332009-04-15T13:23:00.000-04:002009-04-15T13:23:00.000-04:00Y'know, Draconius, I always find it odd talking about Shael as a nerdcore artist, as he is so much more easily associated with geek rock and VGM. That being said, "Down With Bane" is an amazing track. And if you like that, I have it on good authority that he'll have another RPG-based song out in the near future. ;)Z.http://www.blogger.com/profile/14955198622421067159noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15042066.post-3202166841102166762009-04-14T11:49:00.000-04:002009-04-14T11:49:00.000-04:00Shael Riley's "Down with Bane" was my first taste of nerdcore, and like an above commenter said, you always remember your first. As a long time roleplayer, the novelty of a song about roleplaying games shocked me into looking into the whole nerdcore scene more closely, so I always look back to that as sort of my fundamental definition of nerdcore: songs about nerdy stuff.Draconiusnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15042066.post-44663573677761393002009-04-13T09:37:00.000-04:002009-04-13T09:37:00.000-04:00All excellent picks, Soc. "5 to 9" is a personal fave, but, like Church said, it's a little esoteric.Z.http://www.blogger.com/profile/14955198622421067159noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15042066.post-25411074794464239862009-04-12T22:27:00.000-04:002009-04-12T22:27:00.000-04:005 to 9 is one of my favorite songs ever, but it's too cryptic unless you're talking to convention-going anime fans.<BR/><BR/>I'll throw up Obey the Moderator, since it's (a) Ossim and (b) pretty accessible to anyone who's been online.Churchhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12793960528548962421noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15042066.post-37269079708617172522009-04-12T19:16:00.000-04:002009-04-12T19:16:00.000-04:00I would have included in my 10 list of quintessential nerdcore tracks:<BR/><BR/>Ultraklystron - 5 to 9 - This was one of the first nerdcore track other than MC Chris or MC Frontalot that actually managed to have a studio level production.<BR/><BR/>Spamtec - Where I'm From - Based on the Anthony Hamilton hook, it's chock full of spammer lingo. Also, it's got a really funny (crappy flash) music video.<BR/><BR/>Beefy - The Sound (ft. Drown Radio / Doc Pop) - This is actually my favorite Doc Pop song, and also it has Beefy in it.antisochttp://antisocialrap.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15042066.post-55406238678976280172009-04-10T16:27:00.000-04:002009-04-10T16:27:00.000-04:00Oh, awesome!

For me it wasn't a matter of "best," but merely a matter of which songs come to mind when I think of the term nerdcore. Essentially, I had a few people asking me what tracks they should hear to get a feel for nerdcore as a movement, and these were the 10 that I felt properly exemplified the various faces of the scene.Z.http://www.blogger.com/profile/14955198622421067159noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15042066.post-74345042096195745682009-04-08T13:05:00.000-04:002009-04-08T13:05:00.000-04:00What I find interesting is that it seems you haven't just picked the best songs by the best nerdcore artists (unless that is what you tried to do, in which case nevermind :P) but ten songs that you feel explain what nerdcore 'is'. I can't really argue with the list - maybe I'd have mentioned MC RSI's 'remember the geek'. And Jesse D is awesome :DJiminoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15042066.post-87271642125412658532009-04-08T12:46:00.000-04:002009-04-08T12:46:00.000-04:00We'll have to agree to disagree re: Z1, Matt, but nice catch on the Schaffer.

Wow. How time flies.<BR/><BR/>Two quick comments.<BR/><BR/>1) If we're going to include a Z1 track, I'd go with Welcome To Our Block over Headshot.<BR/><BR/>2) The STD track is Nerd Lust, not Nerd Girls. sheesh.Matthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09687165120949107688noreply@blogger.com
