Who would have thought that Dethklok would be the first out of the gate this season with a Christmas special? They will apparently be picking ‘Secret Santas’ and arguing about the Christmas tree. And it would appear that Toki’s mother is visiting from Norway, so his Christmas is totally ruined. Poor Toki. Metalocalypse, Cartoon Network, …
Last Sunday was the Season Three premiere of Metalocalypse and it seems that the creative ambitions have expanded with the new 30-minute time slot. First a quibble with the people at Adult Swim — what is with the unbelievably lame designation ‘Stoner Series’? Dude. Seriously uncool. So, in last season’s cliffhanging finale it looked as …
Target! The new Dethklok album, Dethalbum II, goes on sale today. Purists can buy it on vinyl somewhere, all others can buy the cd at Target for $7.99. That is very good value. Dethklok will perform two shows at the Boston House of Blues, October 27th and 28th. Brendon Small is an insane guitarist, but …
[youtube]dhgjEObtrWE[/youtube] For me anyway. Tragedy All Metal Tribute to the BeeGees, will be playing the Showcase Live in Foxboro on April 2nd. This venue might not be totally horrible as it is standing room only/general admission like a regular club. BUT, here’s the awesomest thing, Brendon Small of Dethklok will also be performing with the …
Dethklok may not be a real band, but they make real music. At some point while watching Metalocalypse, the discriminating viewer will suddenly realize — hey, these guys are actually kinda good. At any rate, this album is now on my iPod. It stands on its own just as music, but the rewards of researching …
When Toki gets news that his dad is dying, he’s forced to travel back to his home town in Norway. The rest of the band decides to make a vacation out of it, citing “album inspiration” as their excuse to further put off working on their delayed album. Adult Swim, 11:59pm, Cartoon Network
Tonight’s episode of Metalocalypse — When Nathan learns that his ex-girlfriend, Rebecca Nightrod, has already found new love while still in a coma, he decides to return to the dating scene. Unfortunately, the rest of the band makes it difficult for Nathan to make a true love connection. (rerun:good one) Adult Swim/Cartoon Network/11:59pm
Metalocalypse is fast becoming one of my favorite things ever. Lately they have been running two episodes back-to-back. Tonight’s listing is “The band’s new album is released; the Revengencers make their next move”. Dethklok is a real ‘band’ that has actually performed live and you can buy ‘Dethalbum’. Past guest voices have included Brian Posehn …
tonight on Adult Swim at 11:30pm the return of Robot Chicken — Tubba-Bubba’s now Hubba Bubba followed at about 11:59pm by Metalocalypse — Dethrecord followed by Tim and Eric Awesome Show Great Job (times approximate, this network is pretty loosey-goosey and the shows are only about 11 minutes long)
Tonight on the Cartoon Network’s Adult Swim 12:00am to 12:15am on Metalocalypse — Auto Event Followed by the Tim and Eric Awesome Show Great Job* — Spaghetti *The New York Times describes this show as “shoddily produced, sloppily edited”.
Really? This is what’s behind the curtain? Not really very death-y. I mean I knew it was a cartoon but… really?! At any rate, good news for Metalocalypse fans, Dethklok is a real band and it’s touring. Nearest venue — the Palladium in Worcester, June 24th. Mr. Small (Berklee grad!) and Mr. Blacha are the …
