♫ Nerf Herder – Sorry / 1996

There are so many great jams on this album I have really been struggling to decide which tracks to include. “Sorry” is the obvious first choice, but considering this debut album from Nerf Herder was criminally underheard, I figured I would throw in another jam to whet your whistle for the band that can best be described as the challenged bastard child of early era Weezer and Blink 182. “Van Halen” was their famous hit, hit, big single, most well known song, but I’ve always been more partial to “Down On Haley” and it’s subtle-as-bricks double entendre. However, I just remember that it’s the holiday season so their original gem, “I’ve Got A Boner For Christmas,” (below) is the perfect choice! (duh) I still recommend picking up a copy of their debut album for mere pennies from Amazon. Other fun facts about Nerf Herder are that they wrote the theme song for the geek-boner magnet Buffy The Vampire Slayer TV show, as well as once sporting Marko 72 (the dude from Sugarcult) on bass. I followed them through their 3rd album, 2002′s American Cheese, but nothing ever lived up this debut. Haven’t heard their 2008 reunion album, Nerf Herder’s IV, but I have a feeling that’s ok with the world.
