It's been a decade since The Doomstar Requiem, but Metalocalypse and Dethklok are finally back in a huge way! A new Metalocalypse movie named Metalocalypse: Army of the Doomstar will arrive later this year alongside a full-length soundtrack and a brand new Dethklok album named Dethalbum IV.
Metalocalypse: Army Of The Doomstar features an insane cast, including:
- Tommy Blacha
- Victor Brandt (Metalocalypse)
- Stephen "Thundercat" Bruner
- King Diamond (King Diamond, Mercyful Fate)
- Mark Hamill (Batman: The Animated Series, The Machine, Star Wars)
- Kirk Hammett (Metallica)
- Jon Hamm (Confess, Fletch, Top Gun: Maverick)
- Scott Ian (Anthrax)
- Amy Lee (Evanescence)
- Malcolm Mcdowell (A Clockwork Orange)
- Juliet Mills (Passions)
- Laraine Newman (Saturday Night Live)
- Raya Yarbrough (Metalocalypse: The Doomstar Requiem – A Klok Opera)
- Livia Zita
The synopsis of Metalocalypse: Army Of The Doomstar is: "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?"
So a movie, a boatload of new Dethklok music, and on top of all that a North American tour with Babymetal. Hell yeah. Get the dates below and get your tickets here.
"It's very surreal having so much new Metalocalypse & Dethklok this year with the trifecta of the tour, movie and album," said Metalocalypse mastermind Brendon Small. "I'm so excited to get on the road with the powerful Babymetal, and to celebrate all the hard work that team Metalocalypse and Dethklok put in over the last two years and beyond!"
