Nerf Herder: How to Meet Girls
If you like anything by Kenny Rogers or Weezer, then here's another album you should consider. You might also like it if you listen to anything by Green Day or Neil Diamond. However, if you like anything by Helloween or Frank Sinatra, then you better get your ass to the record store right now and buy this goddamn thing, because this one's for you, baby.
Catchy melodies with Ramones-ish chord-strumming are what Nerf Herder are all about, and just like their first album, this second one is instantly likable. I defy anyone with a rock 'n roll bone in their body to listen to Vivian and not start tapping their foot like Elvis Presley after a major car accident.
And then - with broken-hearted lyrics like these, how can you go wrong:
"How can I even make you understand, when I'm wearing the pants with the elastic waste band?"
And they start getting really romantic in Pantera Fans in Love with: "I taught you how to draw your first pentagram."
Don't listen to that bitter bastard reviewer from Amazon.com, who interestingly discusses nothing but the lyrics while reviewing a rock CD. But Amazon is still amazing. They now have a "predicted rating", and they thought I'd give this 4 1/2 stars based on my previous reviews. A little high, but close enough.
I'll remember to take advantage of these new predictions next time I use Amazon to decide what CD to buy at my local record store.
