ok. here we go, have you guys watched the trailer of this new cartoon from adult swim? well, i did it, and let me tell ya something, i really loved it, all the characters are nice and cool, that's all about a band named Dethklok, Skwisgaar Skwigelf, Toki Wartooth, William 'Murdeface', Pickles the drummer, and Nathan Explosion, are a talented and insanely band, dark, disturbing and so damn funny; i watch the trailer and it was great, hetfield's and hammett's voices appear in some episodes as fans.

So if you have the chance to watch Metalocalypse, check it out, it's great, if you did it already, what is your opinion about this new cartoon?

....alright this is the dethklok lineup:

* Skwisgaar Skwigelf : Lead Guitar
* William 'Murdeface' : Bass
* Pickles the drummer : drums(obviously)
* Toki Wartooth : Guitar
* Nathan Explosion : vocalist

What? A totally generic european flower power metal band (although it's not really a real band) touring with such brilliant acts such as Converge, High On Fire, and Mastadon?

I just heard a bigger blasphemy then them playing wth those three bands. Apaprently Dethklok is the headliner. My fucking God what the hell is the world coming to? A cartoon band that only released ONE album is allowed to headline nowadays?
Well, one thing is for sure they will be blown off the stage by all THREE the opening bands. Only redeeming fact for the Dethklok band is it has Gene Hoglan on drums, but the songs are so crap he can't show his drumming prowess on them at all.

Nopt as flowery as Stratovarius, DragonFarce, Sonata etc. But surely damn close to ti nonetheless. The music is as European Power Metal as European Power Metal gets.

Hm...why they are listed as "melodic death" everywhere then? did those people who state it missed something?

Yes, they did.
There is not a hint of death metal in their music AT ALL.

Calling them melodic death metal is like calling Children Of Bodom melodic death metal, which a lot of people do as well btw.

Dethklok's music is puerly power metal with some growled vocals over it

And what about vocals? you find them power-metalish? i somehow cannot...

but anyway - such a band should have special category and all those discussions will be over at once

I'm definitely going, as it'll be great to catch both Mastodon and High On Fire again, as well as Converge.

i'll continue to mock the imaginary band, but at am at least grateful for them providing the chance to see HOF/Mastodon... and get me out in time to beat traffic.

No, the vocals are not power metallish. But as been said a gazillion times before... vocals do not determine what genre a band belongs to.

Ya know Marcel, I do agree that it's not apropriate for them to be headlining, but that's the demon we all refer to as "Corporatism" and the drive for profit. However, I should mention, I do like the show Metalocalypse. It's hillarious. I'm going more so for High On Fire and Mastadon but I won't mind seeing Dethklock as long as brendon small plays with them. After all, he wrote all the music and I'm pretty sure he does the (admittadly terrible) vocals. I'm actually excited about this, plus it should give me and my lil bro a chance to hang out.

I just got to know this amazing cartoon yesterday. What a f'ing *guitar sound* shame!!! I wish i had known this for years like you guys! I watched the first episode and i became mesmerized!!! It was brutal, literally! I almost creamed my pants! lol joking on that one.

Anyway, i watched all first season and i have to admit the last half of the season has more "silly" episodes than the first half.. My 5 favorite songs from the show are:

- Duncan Hills Coffe Jingle (hell yeah what a song for the first episode! totally ruled!)
- The Lost Vikings (best song for me in the show, too pity it wasnt on any episode)
- Awaken (i cant stop f'ing *guitar sound* sing this everywhere! it has awesome lyric, rythm and solo!)
- Fansong (this song is awesome as well. When the fans are in the special room watching to the music video, it felt like it was a REAL metal music video! DUDES! Effing amazing! )
- Thunderhorse

This show leaves me so hyped, i cant explain it. Its like the best show on TV i ever seen, honestly. It should be a metalheads MUST-WATCH.

*breathes deeply* wow...was almost suffocating with the excitement back there *breathes some more*

Riiiight...anyone care to comment?


PS: Oh, and to all the haters out there. Just because Dethklok isnt one of your "brootal trve methul" bands with 10 years of experience and etc doesnt mean it cant be equally entertaining. Also, you came to this topic for what? Dissing an "imaginary band" as you call it? Get a life?

No, no, lyrics are just funny. That's all.

"in the form of income tax
I'd rather take a fucking axe
to my face, blow up this place

with you all in it, I'd do it "


"I'd rather you be dead than consider
not opening a restaurant"

It's just the words don't fit with melody.

I just watched The Doomstar Requiem. It was a lot better than I was expecting it to be. I thought a metal opera would be a bad idea, but it managed to work out pretty well. Great performances from everyone, but my favorite performance was given by George Fisher as the Metal-Masked Assassin.
