Schaffer the Darklord and MC Frontalot

MC Frontalot and Schaffer the Darklord

MC Frontalot (ne Damian Hess) is the original mastermind of Nerdcore Hip-Hop and still its Final Boss. Schaffer the Darklord (or STD) is a New York City-based rapper, drummer and comedian with material best-suited for nerdy and/or hedonistic audiences. With manic energy fueling a cartoonishly commanding stage presence, STD skewers such topics as substance abuse, sexual compulsion, urban anxiety and obsessive cat enthusiasm.

Imagine a Frankenstein-esque monster assembled from equal parts Bill Hicks, Adam Yauch, Joey Ramone and Prince, stitched together inside the shell of a maniacal heavy metal ex-patriot. STD has released nine albums and is a founding member of the touring nerdcore hip-hop collective known as the Four-Eyed Horsemen, along with MC Lars, Mega Ran and MC Frontalot. When he's not on the road, he produces the NYC burlesque/wrestling hybrid event called Tassel Mania. STD continues to write, record and perform with great frequency and has no intention of stopping until his rock and roll lifestyle destroys him.
