It’s Halloween time again, my favorite time of year! This year’s list features some really great stuff, as always, quite a few of which I found out about because of the podcast. A couple of these were released last year but didn’t make the list because Read More

Man, I’m so behind on everything it’s ridiculous! I’ve been accumulating stuff for this list for months; the last list was back in June, and I’m pretty sure a lot of these were already piling up. I also have tons of albums to review, covers, and Read More

After Friday’s festivities, Saturday saw me refreshed and ready for more music. I was up relatively early to make sure to catch MC Wreckshin, who, unsurprisingly, also performed with other members of Emergency Pizza Party. It might possibly have Read More

Well, geez, this list just kind of crept up on me! I didn’t even realize I had so many videos piled up until I started compiling the list. It’s been too long since I’ve written anything for this column, so let’s get back into it with a list of recent Read More

Continuing from where I left off a couple of weeks ago, here are a few new (or at least relatively new) geeky videos. Plenty of video games, TV shows, and other pop cultural references. Plus a philosophical concept thrown in for good measure! Read More

Now that 2013 is over (link is from the Cards Against Humanity video wrap up of 2013 from their Holiday Bull**** list. Unsurprisingly it’s slightly NSFW), it’s (finally) time to take a look back at the best geek music of the year (I know I’m late in Read More

In a couple of weeks, I’ll be posting my list of the Best of 2013. In anticipation of that, here is Part Two of the recent releases list, with albums that will probably end up on that list. Read More

As I mentioned in my preview of Nerdapalooza 2013, this was without doubt the biggest year yet. With headliners They Might Be Giants, Nerf Herder, and Green Jellÿ, they were able to get the Orange County Convention Center, which, as it turned out, made Read More

Since I had so many videos this year, I thought I’d split the list in two. For this section, I’ve included a few videos I shot at Nerdapalooza this year. I’ve also decided to include semi-related videos / songs that are a little bit outside of the Read More

So this year I thought I wasn’t even going to get up to thirteen tracks at first, but somehow over the last couple of weeks I’ve managed to accumulate even more than my usual thirteen. For that reason, I’ve decided to split the list into two parts, with Read More

Well, I’ve been collecting various new releases for a while now, so it’s time once again to write up a few short blurbs about some cool stuff. In the coming installments, we’ll have a few video game based albums, an album about science, and some Read More

This year’s list features more Cthulhu than in the past. I was inspired by the fact that my students are actually reading an H.P. Lovecraft story, “The Outsider,” right now. Yes, I’m totally trying to drive my students crazy. Read More
