Saturday Night Special: Metalocalypse (The Dethalbum)
Tonight on the Saturday Night Special, the debute of Dethklok’s DETHABLUM. Who is Dethklok you ask? A fictional band described by some as ‘Spinal Tap meets Scooby Doo meets Norway’. The band comes from the hit show Metalocalypse which airs on the [ Adult Swim ] Network (which broadcasts off Cartoon Network from like 10pm to 6am). The show itself is about this band Dethklok, the richest and most popular metal band on the face of the planet and the trial sand tribulations they encounter while living this grand lifestyle. But there is also a subplot, the fears of a Tribunal group who thinks this band is going to bring about a apocalypse of metal upon the earth.
The music itself is written and played by a person named Brendon Small, who might be known from his other animated series called ‘Home Movies’. He is the person behind the music and lyrics you will hear tonight (with the help of Strapping Young Lads drummed Gene Hoglan (and guest musician Emilie Autumn on DethHarmonics).
So if you like metal, come join us. Along with playing the whole album, I do alot of explaning of things and we also include audio tracks taken from the show which occampany many of the songs (songs from the show).
Come one and come all to the Metal, it shall be brutal.
