Death Clock Metalocalypse

Dethklok is a Norwegian heavy metal band. They are incredibly talented and insanely popular. But Nathan Explosion, William ?Murderface,? Skwisgaar Swigelf, Toki Wartooth and Pickles are also stupid? dangerously stupid. No matter what they do, be it playing sold-out festival gigs or going to the grocery store, Dethklok leaves a path of destruction and murder behind. The series Death Clock Metalocalypse will debut in August. Brendon Small, known as for his role as Brendon Small on the Adult Swim series Home Movies, and Tommy Blacha are co-creators and executive producers. Mark Hamill joins Small and Blacha on the voice cast. James Hetfield and Kirk Hammett of Metallica make guest appearances. Blacha and Small also write and perform Dethklok?s extensive oeuvre of heavy metal music for the show. The series is being produced at Titmouse, Inc. in Los Angeles. Twenty episodes have been ordered.

I can't wait.

Yeah Eric told me about this at their barbecue. I'd forgotten because I was drunk.

Just saw the commercial for it during Adult Swim. As with most of AS, this'll either be brilliant or godawful. I think I saw some characters done up like Dimmu Borgir. And there was something going on involving Finntroll. Really. They were walking around a grocery store or something.

I think it was between Boondocks and Robot Chicken, should anyone actually read this and be awake during the Adult Swim replay.

There's already a wiki entry for it: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Death_Clock_Metalocalypse

There's the ominous news that Kirk Hammett and James Hetfield will be participating as guests. And apparently Mark Hamill is a regular.

I'm just happy 'cause I loved Home Movies (even if most other Adult Swim viewers didn't), and have been waiting for something Brendan Small-related.
