The Deathsquad Show, Dethklok Special
Greetings One & All,
The world has gone crazy, California is burning down, Washinton is drowning in rain and up here in Northern New York, snow, snow and more snow. It began to fall Sunday evening and has yet to begin, like nuclear winter the people hide in their homes and continue to drive 90 down icy snow covered roads, then wounder why their brains are smashed against the windshield. And unfortune for everyone else my winter job is snow plowing, so I’ve been working non-stop. This means I sadly didn’t get to recording my show, but no matter, we got plenty of reruns to force upon you.
This week we shall be replaying the Dethklok Saturday Night Special, featuring the fictional band Dethklok. Fictional you say? Yeah, kind of like Spinal Tap. Dethklok is from a show dubbed Metalocalypse on [ Adult Swim ], about the most famous metal band to ever live and their foils and fumbles with the fame, which usually results in the mass killing of fans and destruction of property. The show which features short songs in most episodes has become popular enough that they produced an album of the music, extended and rerecorded professionally. 375,000 units of the album were pressed and in less than 4 days had sold out, placing Dethklok, a ‘not so real’ band at 22 on the Billboard Charts. The music itself is played and conducted by Brendon Small, creator and writing of Metalocalypse and professional guitarist (in the sense he went to a musical college).
Its good, so join us tonight for the relistening of the entire album, including sound clips from the show that accompany the music. Be there, or be dead. And Merry Christmas.
