Nerf Herder Share "Born Weird" Featuring "Weird Al" Yankovic & Dr. Demento & Cover Weird Al's Own "My Bologna" (Golfshirt Records)
"We didn't have "Weird Al shredding accordion on our band's record" on the Nerf Herder Bingo card, yet here we are. Yes, the new @nerfherder_band single, "Born Weird" [Feat. "Weird Al" & Dr. Demento] is out TODAY on all streaming platforms and for sale on balogna-colored vinyl (click on Nerf Herder's Bio.) We, also, covered Al's "My Bologna" on the B-side. And if you can't get enough of our balogna, our vinyl includes a balogna-scented sticker! It's, also, Steve [Sherlock's] birthday, so if you don't buy the vinyl, you will ruin his whole day. No pressure," Linus of Hollywood (@linusdotson) shared on his Instagram page last night. Linus' band, Nerf Herder, had been teasing something across their own social media pages for quite some time: early last week, a NERF ALERT was posted that the band would be premiering new music that Saturday, February 12, 2022, on The Dr. Demento Show!
Nerf Herder teased, "what food and/or girl's name will be sung about?!? And who is the mysterious special guest?!? Tune in to DrDemento.com and find out!" Next, post-Dr. D show, it was revealed that not only one, but two new Nerf Herder tracks had been shared and were exclusively streaming on Episode #2207 of The Dr. Demento Show entitled "Demented Love Songs." Finally, at the start of this week, Nerf Herder (@nerdherder_band) revealed nine panels of that would make up the cover of their then-still-untitled thinly-veiled single. We spotted Nerf Herder's Born Weird EP on Spotify Wednesday night, ahead of its planned Thursday release, but it soon disappeared. After sharing news of their balogna-colored/bologna-scented vinyl, Nerf Herder posted this message across their social media pages: "Dear, Everyone... due to a massive independent distribution error, our new tracks failed to appear on most digital platforms."
"We apologize for the inconvenience, but, please, rest assured, this will be remedied ASAP! In the meantime, please, watch the new "Born Weird" video as much as you want 😃 Love, NH." So, while you a can now pre-order Nerf Herder's limited edition Bord Weird 7-inch EP, it is not available on digital streaming platforms at press time. However, Nerf Herder's aforementioned "Born Weird" music video, which, actually, mentions Weird Al's "My Bologna" within its lyrics, is still available online complete with artwork and video by Luke "Lukey" & Joe McGarry, otherwise known as The Fantastic Heat Brothers!!!
