You sorta found the cream of the crop for Geek Rock. Anything else will just tide you over until the next Nerf Herder album (get "My Ep" if you don't already own it).
The Boodhound Gang is kinda Geek-RapRock (funny at times, but mostly uselss).

Nerf Herder's Geek status was cemented by doing the Buffy the Vampire Slayer theme.

My lady's favorite is MC Chris. Nothing geekier.

Depending on your definition of Geek Rock, I'm going to toss in "Dead Milkmen" and "Violent Femmes".

I love how according to this thread, there's absolutely no consistent style or even anything that defines the genre other than "music made by, for, or about geeks." I mean, hell, most of it isn't even rock.

That it's not actually a genre? That if it is a genre it's a phenomenally poorly defined genre? That if it's not actually phenomenally poorly defined, then people don't actually understand how it's defined?

I don't know, one of those things is true. I don't know which one it is.

Doesn't bother me at all, just making an observation.
