Documentary: Nerdcore Rising 2008

Do you know what nerdcore is? Well, if you want to find out about this subculture music scene, why not find out from the creator of this genre himself, MC Frontalot. This movie fallows MC Frontalot, and his band, on their first tour. Going from one small club to another, playing for small, but dedicated crowds, the band shares their experience.

Grade: A

I think this might be my first documentary review, and I'd like to say that they all will receive an 'A', I mean, how can I judge someones life? I can't. Anywho, this was interesting. If you've ever heard of MC Chris (MC PeePants on Aqua Teen Hunger Force) you'd kinda get the idea. This genre of music is typically sung in a hip-hop/dance style, by a nerdy white guy, singing about things like Star Wars, video games, D&D, and other "nerd culture" stuff. Personally I enjoy Nerdcore, and thought the movie was funny, and an interesting look into their lives.
