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!!! Nerf Herder's Born Weird EP featuring both "Born Weird" & "My Bologna" and showcasing appearances from Weird Al & Dr. Demento is now will (hopefully!) soon become available on streaming services. Limited edition copies of the Born Weird 7-inch EP are now available from Nerf Herder's own Golfshirt Records.

"Let Me Shine for You:" Lindsay Lohan for Playboy (Winter 2011-12 Leak)

Lindsay Lohan essentially embodies exactly "What NOT to Do In Hollywood :" Fame, fortune, success... sex, drugs & Rock "N" Roll . Within a fairly short period of time, Lohan somehow managed to obtain a plentiful helping of POWER @ a very young age. This gradual rise-downfall was captured on film; Between 1998-2010, she portrayed a wide array of roles across the silver screen in movies including: Mean Girls, Bobby , Herbie Fully Loaded , Georgia Rule, Machete , and Freaky Friday . Between rapid-paced film shoots, Lindsay Lohan also found time to record 2 Pop Rock albums for Casablanca , Speak (2004) and A Litter More Personal-Raw (2005). Needless to say, Lindsay Lohan has gotten roped up in a lot of troubles and woes with the law over the last 3-5 years... a vicious cycle of drugs, arrest, court, rehab, "daddy issues," jail time [Repeat]. That's the pure basics of it - But Google that shit for additional info, if necessary. Towards the end of

[W]reckless, Topless American Youth: Lana del Rey - "Born 2 Die" (Britney Spears Birthday 30)

Lana del Rey [Lizzy Grant] effectively became 2011's "It Girl" with the release of her phenomenal debut single, "Video Games" (Stranger) . Like many struggling singer-songwriters, Grant has been signed, dropped, and significantly changed her public image since bursting onto the scene (2009). With that said, it can be assumed that Lana del Rey has collected just as many "haters" as she has avid supporters. To be perfectly honest, the only other artist I can think of that made this much commotion... garnered so much wide-spread buzz/hate and critical acclaim -- right out of the gates -- with just one track is Britney Spears . And maybe in this post- Mike musical era, that's the true synthesis of Pop Culture: Britney Lynn Spears . After months of repeated teasing and speculation, Lana del Rey 's major label debut, Born 2 Die will [finally] be released this coming Jan. 30-31, 2012. Pitchfork reports that it will feature "Off to The Ra

Liberty Bell Cracked In 1/2: Ween - "Freedom of '76" (Gene Ween's Final Send-Off)

Chocolate & Cheese (1994) was one of the first albums I bought with my own money. I was in some sort of BMG Music Club , where you'd buy 5 CD's and then get 10 for "FREE." It was all sent through mail order and you picked the titles from some special booklet. I'm almost positive that Chocolate & Cheese's side boob-baring album cover was what initially drew me in... mind you, I was 12-15 and the zany Ween logo/middle finger CD graphic really didn't hurt either. Honestly, I forget how I really felt about it @ the time, but a few years later, my older cousin Josh told me that Ween were this BIG college "jam band." CKY did some sort pf 93.3 radio takeover to promote their new album and played "Freedom of '76" late that night on air. Needless to say, I re-visited Chocolate & Cheese @ about 20-something this go 'round and I fucking loved it! Ween were really weird, yet talented... almost too talented. I can vaguel
