Nerf Herder new album

On Led Zeppelin's IV, the act wrote about commercialism and Middle Earth; on Nerf Herder's IV, the band writes about cassette tapes and Led Zeppelin.

The nerd-punk band Nerf Herder is back at it and ready to release its uncreative, yet aptly titled fourth album April 29 from Oglio Records. The 12-track effort is the act's first full-length since 2002's American Cheese (review) (Honest Don's).

IV's track listing is:

Oh My, Oh My
Golfshirt (Part 2)
High School Reunion
WTC #7
Dianalee
Crocodile
Manatee
Garage Sale
Led Zeppelin Rules
Dance
I'm Not A Loser
The Backpack Song

REM new album

Michael Stipe and REM are set to return April 1 with Accelerate, their 14th studio effort. A track listing and cover art are still being kept under wraps.
