Metalocalypse is a twisted comedy series about a metal band with apparently supernatural powers, that have become the biggest band ever and and are on the verge of taking over the whole planet. The military watches them, voiced by metal heroes like King Diamond and Mark Hamill. The show is unbelievably violent as the band regularly kill and maim employees, talk show hosts, fans, chefs, producers, even the Danish royalty. The show is full of references to metal bands, songs and general attitudes. Murderface is a disgusting, violent loud mouthed rageaholic obsessed with urine. Pickles the drummer is supposed to be a mormon, or a jew, or a midwesterner, but he calls everyone douchebags and may be diabetic. Had "kiddie glaucoma" as a kid. Toki is a slow witted but fast guitar player from an abandoned Norwegian village. Skwisgar is the fastest guitar player ever, and he's always talking about all the girls he has sex with. Or making fun of Toki. If you've heard of the "cookie monster" vocals in metal, well Nathan Explosion is a master of them, probably because that's how he always talks. He's always coming up with song ideas, or deleting the finished product for not being heavy enough. Too bad it destroys the world's economy and causes fan suicide rates to go up.
This show is extremely sick and demented but pretty funny, and for metal fans it will be a godsend. If they would develop Toki or make it a little bit less dry I would give it a 10.
