First Clip From ‘Metalocalypse: Army of the Doomstar’ Previews the Brand New Animated Movie
Are you ready for some BRUTAL metal? Well good because Metalocalypse: Army of the Doomstar is bringing the heaviest metal band ever created back together again for an action-packed journey. It’s been awhile since we saw the boys in Dethklok but they are indeed back with an all-new, full-length animated movie. But that’s not all! In addition to the original film, written and directed by Brendon Small, a companion soundtrack and Dethalbum IV will also arrive this year.
While you wait, you can check out this first clip MacabreDaily has obtained for the film which drops on August 22nd.
In the clip, “Pickles struggles to keep everyone focused in church as William Murderface, Toki, and Skwisgaar cause distractions.”
“The all-new animated movie begins after the heroic rescue of Toki Wartooth; Dethklok frontman Nathan Explosion finds himself traumatized in a BRUTAL professional and romantic flat-spin, all while he is tasked with fulfilling the prophecy and confronting the ultimate songwriting challenge to save the planet. Can Nathan Explosion look beyond his brutally damaged ego to save his band, stop the Metalocalypse, and finally face the ultimate evil: Salacia?”
Fans can now pre-save Dethklok’s highly anticipated Dethalbum IV which includes all new original Dethklok songs, also releasing on August 22. The second album release, Metalocalypse: Army of the Doomstar (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack), will include additional songs plus an original movie score and will be released August 25.
Army of the Doomstar stars Small, Tommy Blacha, Victor Brandt (Metalocalypse), Stephen “Thundercat” Bruner (Grammy® Award-winning musician), King Diamond, Mark Hamill (“Batman: The Animated Series”), Kirk Hammett, Jon Hamm (Top Gun: Maverick), Scott Ian, Amy Lee, Malcolm McDowell (A Clockwork Orange), Juliet Mills, Laraine Newman (“Saturday Night Live”), Raya Yarbrough (Metalocalypse: The Doomstar Requiem – a Klok Opera), and Livia Zita.
