Music reviews of Nerdcore Rising
Music Review: MC Frontalot's Debut a Success
Rating: 5 Stars
I've been listening to MC Frontalot for quite a while, downloading all his free music. Then he releases his CD, and I figure, "Well, I have all his other songs, I don't really need a CD." But I listen to the new single "Charity Case" and I felt like I owed it to the guy; after all, he's been providing great music for free. So I bought the CD, and it was incredible.
"Charity Case" - A song about why you should buy the CD, and free for download on http://www.frontalot.com/. I really like this song.
"Goth Girls" - My all-time favorite MC Frontalot song. Great beat, better vocals, nice rhyming and lyrics.
"Pr0n Song" - A song about internet pornography. Not for the prim and proper, but overall hilarious (if somewhat risqué).
"Yellow Lasers" - A version of a classic MC Frontalot song. I like this album remix version better. It just feels like it clicks better, and sounds cleaner
"This Old Man" - A very amusing song about getting older; nice beat and rhymes.
"Nerdcore Rising" - Similar to "Nerdcore Hiphop" only in that they both revolve around the nerdcore genre. This song isn't my favorite, but is pretty solid. Features a guest vocals by MC Hawking and Jesse Dangerously.
"Which MC Was That?" - Not very different from the original free version. It's slightly better delivered and produced, but not very noticeably so.
"Penny Arcade Theme" - Though the chorus sounds almost identical to the free original, the rest of the vocals are significantly improved, resulting in a much better song.
"Floating Bridge" - I never particularly liked the original, but the Nercore Rising version is so superior that it made me like the song.
"Hassle: The Dorkening" - If you know which card game this is referring to, you'll probably love this song. If not, you probably won't be so crazy about it. On its own, it's a decent song; however the joke makes it hilarious.
"Crime Spree" - I've always been a big fan of the original and live versions of this song, and perhaps that makes me a bias towards them. I like the live version the best (the vocals are clearer), and I would rank this song slighty under the original.
"Special Delivery" - A protest song about politics and war. This is probably my second favorite Frontalot song. This version is noticably different and superior to the original and live versions, but extremely similar to the the free Misson Accomplished version.
"Message No. 419" - Another great song. This album version is moderately improved over the original.
"I Heart Fags" - The only MC Frontalot song which I don't love. I didn't like the original so much, and the same remains true for this version. In its defense, the beat is very nice, and the vocals are well delivered. I just (personally) don't like the lyrics.
"Braggadocio" - Considered the original song solid, but not great. The song still isn't outstanding, but it's a lot better than it was.
"Indier Than Thou" - This a excellent song about independent artists. The original was great, and this (updated) album version is even better.
Description of Nerdcore Rising
Nerdcore Rising is the feverishly anticipated debut album from MC Frontalot. Alas, it is not the tonic to make that fever subside; each listening ignites further desperation for Front's inimitable dorkery. Includes six brand new tracks and ten re-recorded fan favorites, featuring the beatwork of Baddd Spellah, Doctor Popular, and DJ Earflaps, the exceptional funksomeness of Front's studio/touring band (Gm7, Black Lotus, and The Categorical Imperative), and guest appearances by Jesse Dangerously and MC Stephen Hawking. Awarded thirteen out of ten stars by Math Error Quarterly.Alternative Rock CDs
