This month’s quickies feature an artist who contacted me via Twitter, some covers, and the return of a couple of nerdcore artists that we haven’t heard from for some time. Read More
For this inaugural episode of the Geek Music Podcast, I interview Jace and Kyle from Nuclear Bubble Wrap. We discuss the new album as well as some exciting revelations about the future, and there’s some talk of Breaking Bad as well. Read More
Sci-Fried’s fifth album, Season V, features various flavors of rock and nerdiness, just as we’ve come to expect from the best geek rock band around (keeping in mind that Kirby Krackle is “nerd rock.” Which is to say, they’re both the tops of their Read More
Back when I previewed Alpha Riff’s Digital Champions, all that I really knew was that the album would be set in a cyberpunk world. That alone was intriguing, given that I was a huge cyberpunk fan back in the '90s (and I still enjoy it today, if I can Read More
For my Best of Geek Music 2014 list, I’ve decided to change a couple of things. First of all, I had to expand my list to twenty-five (!). Second, I decided to forego the ordering of the albums and instead put them in alphabetical order by artist, Read More

Originally I had intended to get these reviews up before the end of the year, but things have conspired against me to make sure that just didn’t happen. Both of these bands are new to me, although I did see a stripped down version of Nuclear Bubble Wrap Read More
It’s Christmas time again, which means it’s time to finally listen to all of the songs I’ve acquired since I released last year’s list. It’s weird how many Christmas songs I encounter throughout the year that I always feel compelled to save until after Read More
