Pickles' name....

Was Pickles' name different in the planning stages? I've listened to an old version of the opening theme (the one titled "deathclock final theme", I think from Brendon's website but I could be wrong), and it really doesn't sound like he's saying Pickles... sounds more like Alec... or Alex.... Search4Lancer 02:39, 25 August 2006 (UTC)

• I've listened to it, and he's definately saying Pickles. SAlpsu 22:50, 13 November 2006 (UTC)

Trivia

There seems to be an issue with repetitive trivia between this page and the episode list. This is simply a waste of space and should probably be cut down to a link saying something like "for episode specific trivia see List of Metalocalypse Episodes. --NeoVampTrunks 13:03, 28 August 2006 (UTC)

done. cma 04:51, 1 September 2006 (UTC)

Skwisgaar

Says in the article that he's Swedish. Are you sure he's not Norwegian, considering that the band is described as half-american, half-norwegian? --Burbster 22:59, 28 August 2006 (UTC)

Comfirmed by his Adult Swim bio. – Someguy0830 (Talk | contribs) 23:15, 28 August 2006 (UTC)

Skwisgaar and Toki are brothers?

It appears to be implied that Toki Wartooth and Skwisgaar Skwigelf are actually brothers during their "Mothers hates you most" comedy routine as the Brothers of Deception during the "Dethkomedy" episode.

Then again, it was a routine. – Someguy0830 (Talk | contribs) 20:24, 5 September 2006 (UTC)

True, but to be fair one could have drawn a logical conclusion that they were brothers based on the very nature of the routine they chose. They did a parody of the Smothers Brothers who were actually real-life brothers. It has been already dismissed with the episode "Dethfam" that Toki and Skwisgaar are not brothers. --carpeNoctem 09:11, 11 September 2006 (UTC)

Clean up Trivia?

Seems to be long run on sentices and unrelated ideas off the whole pickels drummer thing...

--Masterzman 04:28, 6 September 2006 (UTC)

I think we should keep the pickles/Devin Townsend thing. Even HDR commented on the resemblance so I think it's pretty significant.

the pickles/townsend resemblance and threat-of-lawsuit (:P) is relevant enough to remain in the article. however, i feel that fan-based opinions on who the other characters are should be left out of the trivia, and removed if they're added again without a citable source. especially if it's along the lines of "most fans think [he] is based on [him], yet other fans think that [he] is based on [him], or possibly [him]". that led to the outrageously large, and useless, section that was entirely made up of opinions taken from a myspace group thread. cma 08:51, 27 September 2006 (UTC)

External link issue

Theres an external link in the trivia section, "the dethklok site" that links to www..com/dethklok. anyone know where this should go? Miles 01:24, 12 September 2006 (UTC)

probably the official site --Wildnox 02:03, 12 September 2006 (UTC)

CD

Someone needs to find out if there coming out with a CD and if not suggest it to someone.

According to bulletins from Brendon Small, a CD is in the works. No potential release date.

````Release is scheduled for Summer '07.

lyrics necessary?

do we really need lyrics. i don't think wikipedia is the correct place for that. maybe it would a better idea to have an article devoted to the actual band, and put the lyrics there. but this page is about a tv show. ~~Patrick~~ 04:45, 16 September 2006 (UTC)

i agree. i don't believe that the lyrics are necessary, and considering the fact that the (mostly correct and misspelled) lyrics are easily accessable by watching your TV with closed captioning on, or elsewhere on the internet by searching google. they're not needed here. cma 19:52, 16 September 2006 (UTC)

I very much like the idea of splitting off a new article about the band. I think the shows probably becoming popular enough to warrant it (26,000+ friends on their myspace, several press mentions), and it would clean up this article a lot. --KharBevNor 03:10, 18 September 2006 (UTC)

I agree but would just like to point out that this particular show is not close-captioned and it would be nice to see accurately transcribed lyrics appearing somewhere to the songs, because some of these guesses at them being made are horrible. But since wikipedia is a user-edited reference, there is no way to know how long the accurate lyrics would last until someone changed to make them inaccurate again. -- carpeNoctem 20:46, 4 October 2006 (UTC)

Band page?

Good idea? as KharBevNor said it would clean up this page a lot. and while i'm on the subject of dethklok as a band not a show, i've seen some promo pictures from before the show was aired and these showed the dethklok (not metalocalypse) logo containing an Heavy metal umlaut over the "o." ah, here's one. so question to people working on this page, should there be a dethklok band-style page, and should it be spelt DethKlok or DethKlök? ~~Patrick~~ 06:28, 23 September 2006 (UTC)

A band page would be good. There's enough individual information on the members to make a decent entry. – Someguy0830 (Talk | contribs) 06:38, 23 September 2006 (UTC)

Until they release an album, a redirect to here is probably best, since the band and the show are practically the same thing as of right now. Recury 16:01, 23 September 2006 (UTC)

one more thing. the wallpapers on the adult swim websit are showing the name DethKlok as having an umlaut over the e, and a slash through the o. so its DëthKløk ~~Patrick~~ 18:40, 24 September 2006 (UTC)

the accented letters aren't used all the time, however. personally, i still feel that there is still too little information (and that which we know is mostly speculation based quotes on the show) about the band to warrant its own separate page.

also, does anyone else think that the talk page should be cleaned up? i'd like to archive the majority of it, primarily the completely obsolete questions/discussions, if nobody objects. cma 12:34, 25 September 2006 (UTC)

This is the idea I had in mind when I created the talkback section "The Band" earlier in August and I was shot down by you, Someguy0830 telling me that it was improper style and it's not a real band so we can't treat it as such. Now suddenly it's a good idea? --carpeNoctem 21:06, 4 October 2006 (UTC)

Someguy0830 never said to treat Dethklok as a real band. He's merely suggesting taking the band section of "Characters in Metalocalypse" and moving it to its own article. I'm guessing the article would simply be called "Dethklok" and would use the manual of style for writing on fiction. FinalMinuet 15:11, 3 November 2006 (UTC)

Stop taking the show's dialogue at face value

Statement's in the article such as:

"Skwisgaar seems to be the member of the the band to get lots of woman"

"he was prescribed medicinal marijuana as a child for "kiddie glaucoma."

are based on statements made by the characters which are taken out of context and probably not entirely true within the Metalocalypse universe. Better alternatives would be something along the lines of:

"on occasion Skwisgaar likes to boast about his prowess with women"

"which he claimed was because he "grew up smoking government weed every day" due to suffering from "kiddie glaucoma".

-85.210.152.124 09:45, 30 September 2006 (UTC)

Much of the article has become this idiotic fan speculation. Wikipedia is not the place for this kind of thing. --NeoVampTrunks 01:57, 6 October 2006 (UTC)

Uh. Speculated section?

The band's unnatural popularity seems to have attracted the attention of an Illuminati-style group, which appears in each episode to comment on the band's latest escapades and deliberate the situation. Dethklok appears to resemble an ancient Sumerian prophecy, which apparently is not a peaceful one, given the band's activities. The fact that they manage to summon a troll in "Dethtroll", and that the band is frequently shown with glowing eyes is a sign that their powers are increasing.

Aside from the first sentence, this whole paragraph is nothing but speculation. Anyone opposed to me removing it? EDIT:Actually, I think I'll just remove it, and complaints can be directed here. -- Digital Watches! 00:41, 2 October 2006 (UTC)

Actually, aside from the glowing eyes, and end of the second sentence, that's entirely true. – Someguy0830 (Talk | contribs) 01:37, 2 October 2006 (UTC)

The only part of that passage which is speculation is the end part. There is nothing to confirm that because they had the ability to summon the Lake Troll and because their eyes are shown glowing red that it means their powers are increasing. True, they did summon a Lake Troll, but they did it accidentally due to taking the lyrics from the actual ancient scriptures - they didn't summon it intentionally to destroy and wreak havoc in their own hometown! The band members eyes have been shown glowing red at the end of the episodes "Dethwater" and "Performance Klok" but at this time we do not know what particular significance this has (if any). --carpeNoctem 20:51, 4 October 2006 (UTC)

Actually, after tonights episode, I'd say that the glowing eyes does have something to do with powers. They summoned tornados, and their eyes glowed red again. Although, it's still spec, as it hasn't been stated on the show. Moterola 00:08 6 October 2006

Cameos

The Information on the Cameos should be placed in the Episode Spific trivia.

Actually, with the episode list, it looks like most of the cameos are actually mentioned over there now in each episode. We really need to have the information repeated in the main article? Bitnine 16:22, 21 January 2007 (UTC)

The manager. lawyer, advisor?

I thought this guy was their lawyer, not their manager. -- unknown user

I've been calling him their advisor. He always seems to be advising them on financial, business. and personal matters and making connections and calls for them and assisting them. I highly doubt a lawyer would have sent two men to their deaths, he would have created a court case. Can we find a term for him that we can all agree on? I like Advisor. --carpeNoctem 09:18, 16 October 2006 (UTC)

Well, 'advisor' works, but I think you overestimate the lawyers (especially lawyers in a show like Metalocalypse) if you don't think a lawyer would send two men to their deaths.

It appears that everyone seems to want to go with Manager. That works for me too. I just want it to be a consistent term so I can know what to name him at the tv.com Metalocalypse guide. --carpeNoctem 07:33, 30 October 2006 (UTC)

The Band section and names

I have a small deal with the section The Band. At the moment, each band member has the corresponding article of the lyrics used to describe them in the show's opening song. First, is this needed in this section, and secondly, if it is, where should it be placed? The previous way was fine in my opinion, but I do agree that where its placed now (in the first line of the following text) is also sensible. If anything, I think it should be specified that those items come from the opening theme's lyrics. I do like how it's been cleaned up, though, as it looks a lot cleaner now. --ModernTenshi04 16 October 2006

I appreciate the appreciation(I did the clean-up on The Band section). The goal was to simply clean it up, without digging too much into what was said (beyond finding a way to arrange it into logical paragraphs, rather than a collection of information tidbits about the band members). I personally think if the song lyrics belong anywhere, they belong where they are now. Putting them in the subsection title would be atrocious. However, I agree with you that it would be reasonable to clarify that these lyrics came from the opening theme. My gripe with The Band section is the three bits of information I marked with the "citation/verification needed" template. Nathan Explosion speaks fluent french? I saw every episode, but I don't remember that. Where was that from? Was the hypothesis on Toki Wartooth's namesake just a random idea from nowhere, or was it someone else's? No original research is allowed on wikipedia, so if it's someone else's idea, it needs a source. Despite the opening theme lyrics, is there any indication that Skwisgaar is, in fact, the tallest guitarist in the world? These things, I think, need to be addressed. --FalseLobster 02:55, 17 October 2006 (UTC)

No problem! I do agree with you that the references to Skwisgaar being the tallest guitarist in the world, and the assumption that Nathan speaks fluent French should be removed (or at least that you seem to imply their removal), as I have seen all the episodes, and haven't heard either of these claims. As for the items in parentasis that are pulled from the opening themes lyrics, I personally think they should be removed. They're already covered in the lyrics section of the Wikiquotes page, and I can't seem to think of a reasonable means of noting that they, in fact, are merely pulled from the show's opening theme. Basically, they do nothing but add clutter, and can be seen as something either only a fan of the show would know, or something no one would get until they read the lyrics to the opening theme. Also, what's up with the recent rearangement of the order the band members listing? What is the logic behind it? I can see why Nathan would be at the top, as he's the lead singer/"leader" of the group, but what of the others? The other way made sense, as it was how they are introduced in the show's opening theme, but I'm new here, and there could be a method to the madness for all I know :P. Could someone explain this, if possible? -- ModernTenshi04 11:53, 17 October 2006 (UTC)

I think it's just alphabetical now--Explosion, Murderface, Pickles, Skwigelf, Wartooth..?

Oh, wow, how the hell did I not notice that? Okay, that makes more sense to me now. -- ModernTenshi04 12:54, 17 October 2006 (UTC)

I was implying that they should be removed if they aren't true. I was consulting the community to see if those things were stated at some point and I missed it, rather than just outright assuming I was correct. Your argument about the parenthetical lyrics is logical, and I am removing them. The arrangement of the band members was fine before, in my opinion, but I also think it's fine now. FalseLobster 23:16, 17 October 2006 (UTC)

Okay, I believe I know where the comment about Nathan being fluent in French came from. I was watching episode 9 via Google Video, and at the very end Jean-Pierre is pouring Nathan a cup of coffee. After pouring the cup, Nathan says, "Mercie," and then after taking his first sip, he says, "bon, coffee, Jean-Pierre." Pardon my French if I've misspelled anything, as I don't speak French, so yeah. While I don't believe this is enough to say that he is fluent in French, or for that matter imply it, we now know where the reasoning came from, and can refer back to this if it comes up in a dispute later on. Search for the show on Google Video (don't want to link to it for reasons I'm sure you can understand), and then look for episode 9, "Mordland." Go to the very end, and you'll hear what I'm talking about. Again, while I don't feel it's enough to factually state or even imply that he speaks French, fluently or otherwise, we now have an explanation as for where the data came from. Feel free to put it back in if you want, but I think it should be left out, as it's rather erroneous, and would likely be implied data rather than factual. -- ModernTenshi04 23:46, 17 October 2006 (UTC)

I really preferred the band members listed as they are named in the opening song. As for the Nathan fluent in French thing, for all we know those could be the only French phrases he knows. I mean, he admittedly isn't too bright. In an upcoming episode he's even going to attempt to get his GED. --carpeNoctem 08:04, 19 October 2006 (UTC)

Totally agree with you on the French thing, but I do rather like the way the band members list is now. People who have never seen the show before could easily see that the list is presented alphabetically, where as if it were presented in the order in which they are introduced in the show's opening theme, it would require that they know that before hand, or that they read the lyrics for the opening theme to understand why they were in such an order. Granted, I doubt many people will care, but alphabetical order seems more logical and easily understood by non-fans and fans alike. -- ModernTenshi04 11:13, 19 October 2006 (UTC)

File Sharing Sub-section

Alright, I saw this section when I checked the page this morning before heading off to class. Durring some downtime after a class this morning I took it upon myself to clean it up a bit. I've redone the format in which the information was presented into one I feel is more presentable than the previous one (no offense intended to the original designer), but I still think it could use some work. Moreover, is this section really even needed? -- ModernTenshi04 13:51, 19 October 2006 (UTC)

I've looked up a few other bands in the genre (and others) and I've never seen a filesharing section on another page. Moreover, the info's incorrect--"Fansong" is from "Mordland" and is (was?) available from the Dethklok myspace page. For what it's worth, I call it cruft.-- cybersybil

Sweet, so all the editing I did there was for naught :P. Oh well, completely agree that it was cruft. -- ModernTenshi04 15:17, 19 October 2006 (UTC)

Not all for naught, the rest of it looks and sounds a lot better. Thanks.

Individual Character Pages?

Anybody?

As the show progresses, we learn more and more about the characters. Does anybody think there should be individual character pages?

One character page first. Make List of characters in Metalocalypse, then break it once it the characters are big enough. – Someguy0830 (T | C) 00:26, 24 October 2006 (UTC)

Bored with nothing to do at work, so I hope you don't mind that I took the liberty to make the page. You can find the page at List of characters in Metalocalypse, and I've updated the main Metalocalypse article with a link to the page. As you can very well see, I merely took the info that was already on the main page, and copied it over to the new one. God I love copy and paste! I must say that the main article is much cleaner now. I also agree that as more information becomes available for the characters, individual pages should be created. 'Tis a popular show, so that might not take too long. And with that, I've officially created my first article page in Wikipedia. Go me! -- ModernTenshi04 16:28, 24 October 2006 (UTC)

Good job. And uh... Congratulations!

Okay, um, what's the point of having each of the band member's listed in the character's section? I thought the whole purpose of creating a separate character's page was to eliminate this. I got rid of it earlier, but Yukichigai reverted it, saying that my explanation of cruft wasn't good enough to keep it deleted, or something. To be honest, it really is cruft, since having it there is presenting redundant information that would be found upon clicking the link to Characters in Metalocalypse. So I ask you: what the hell gives? -- ModernTenshi04 20:30, 31 October 2006 (UTC)

It's only redundant if it is the exact same article content between the two. This is not the case. The reason for using the "main article" template is if you have a generalized summary of a certain topic -- in this case, a band roster -- but still want to retain more detailed information on a separate page. This keeps the most relevant information where it can be easily browsed, but still allows for the topic to be read about in more detail if so desired.

Additionally, I don't think "cruft" means what you think it means. It's a crap term anyway, but you should read the essay all the same. -- Y|yukichigai 21:48, 31 October 2006 (UTC)

Categorization

As per the tag on the "List of characters in Metalocalypse" page, I created a Metalocalypse subcategory under the "Animated television series", "2006 television program debuts", "2000s TV shows in the United States", and "Shows on Adult Swim" categories. The main article, the character list, the episode list, Brendon Small, Victor Brandt, and Mark Hamill are all there. Please direct discussion here. FinalMinuet 16:39, 26 October 2006 (UTC)

template

I believe that this television show should have a navigation template. How do you add one?

Also, I believe we should create episode-specific articles. I have already made one from the first episode. We should do it for all of them. Thematt523 20:26, 5 November 2006 (UTC)

What happedned to the Trivia?

What happened to the trivia section? Blindsnyper 18:40, 6 November 2006. (UTC)

Cleanup

The 'summary' section is too waffly and doesn't sound like it's going anywhere. It needs to be divided into sub-sections, and called something else. LibLord 15:12, 11 November 2006 (UTC)

Guitar Hero

in the new episode, a little girl was playing the guitar hero controller. kind of a funny tribute to the game

Yeah, I noticed that. Guessing it's a little "Thank You" for putting Thunderhorse into GHII. Moterola

DVD Release?

We're nearing the end of the first 20 episodes for season 1. Is there any talk of a release date for the DVD collection?

No. If a DVD were to be released, there'd be some news about it. – Someguy0830 (T | C) 22:10, 25 November 2006 (UTC)

Last night, a bulletin was posted from the band's myspace stating that both the album and dvd were slated for a Summer 2007 release. I've added this information to the article. Mrcrue88 11:53, 18 December 2006 (UTC)

Metal References

References to other metal bands are sprinkled throughout the series. Apart from the die hard metalheads out there, a fair few viewers will likely miss these. I believe their inclusion is important, as long as a reference is included. It is also good to have a fair idea of the influences that shaped the music of Deathclock.

I also feel that showing these is important. Keeping it to obvious metal references, such as Nathan's use of three Cannibal Corpse song titles in his Grocery Store rant, would keep it from growing into too much of a triva/speculation section. I thought the previously listed references were a nice touch since, I my self a metal head, didn't catch a few of them and enjoyed seeing them pointed out.

The problem with such sections is that they grow out of control with each passing episode. The slightest detail becomes instantly fascinating and people feel compelled to add it. It's different when you have series that run decent length episodes and can have articles for said episodes. This series features often disjointed eleven minute shorts which don't amount to much if any actual plot to write about. Just read the first line of WP:TRIVIA to see what I'm talking about. – Someguy0830 (T | C) 18:53, 30 November 2006 (UTC)

The council (or whatever it's called) actually has persisted between Metalocalypse episodes. Lately two members have split off and who knows what might happen (free-ballin'?). Really even in adultswim's less sensical shows like Aqua Teen Hunger Force and Sealab 2021 there is/was some continuity.

As far as when trivia becomes actual useful information, that's a question for the ages. MGlosenger 22:08, 30 November 2006 (UTC)

Oh lord, not another edit war... Someguy, no matter how right you think you may be, this one-man crusade is getting horribly old. 209.129.117.2 08:50, 2 December 2006 (UTC)

Same goes for you. Do you have any decent reason to keep the trivia, or are you just adding it because you find it "cool"? The metal references in this series are no more relevant than listing every gag Robot Chicken has ever done. I suggest you read up on what does and what doesn't belong. Your trivia falls into the latter. It'll be removed because of that. Don't like it? I suggest your pour your efforts into a place that doesn't mind such information. I'm sure TV.com would love your contributions. – Someguy0830 (T | C) 08:57, 2 December 2006 (UTC)

_My_ trivia? Who are you to claim I'm adding trivia? I am in favor of keeping it, but I have most certainly not contributed anything to these articles under the constantly-deleted trivia sections. I find your distaste for my point of view to go so far enough as to suggest I commit the most unholy of crimes as making an article "unencylopedic" to be disgusting. As far as the Robot Chicken reference, that's such a laughable comparison it isn't even worth arguing. 209.129.117.2 08:59, 2 December 2006 (UTC)

Restoring it, whatever. It's a moot point at best. The point is that it doesn't belong here in the first place. Better the article be trivialess and encyclopedic than filled with useless trivia. In the end, can you say that trivia is anything more than random facts that only a select few will find interesting? Will anyone who doesn't watch this show even care? Articles are written more for those who don't know the subject than those that do. Those that don't know this show will not understand a trivial reference to a single episode, so what good does it do to mention it? As a side note, I find your knack for overstating my position amusing. The "most unholy of crimes" part was a nice touch. – Someguy0830 (T | C) 09:43, 2 December 2006 (UTC)

I've a suggestion. Rather than putting your information in a section called 'trivia', incorporate it into the article as-is. By definition trivia is unimportant, and the idea of Wikipedia is to serve as a source of that which is of some importance. If you can't find a place for it, then perhaps it truly is of no use.

Personally, I find comparisons with other musicians pointless if you can't say that someone directly involved with the show specifically said a character or event was meant to be a direct homage to someone or something. I could easily imagine myself making comparisons with things until I had a long, long list. If you describe a character or event well enough, a knowledgeable reader will be able to draw their own conclusions anyway. And, 1000 years from now, a reader won't know who David Lee Roth or KISS is.. but they'll know who Zarxo the Flagrant is. MGlosenger 10:14, 2 December 2006 (UTC)

To add to that, disguising trivia as "Metal References" does not make it any less a collection of trivia. – Someguy0830 (T | C) 10:16, 2 December 2006 (UTC)

What is it with you and the personal attacks? You cite Wikipedia policies left and right when it's convenient, but that 'assume good faith' bit never seems to come up. It's obvious you've got an axe to grind, but do we have to be dragged along with it? 209.129.117.2 10:29, 3 December 2006 (UTC)

A personal attack would assume I'm attacking you directly. I'm pointing out the obvious. Naming a section "Metal References" is what was done to the section you kept readding. There is nothing personal about stating fact except in the way you choose to interpret it. – Someguy0830 (T | C) 10:38, 3 December 2006 (UTC)

Japanese translation

Can anyone translate the Japanese language text on Pickles' green hachimaki in the "Dethstars" episode? Chris 07:15, 14 December 2006 (UTC)

I only got the first two katakana but it looked like "Pikurusu". cybersybil 16:30, 14 December 2006 (UTC)

It said "pickles" in the katakana alphabet, the alphabet used for emphasis and foreign words in japanese. Patrick (talk) 21:11, 16 December 2006 (UTC)

Dr. Rockso Official MySpace?

The "I'm Just a Rock 'n' Roll Clown" song said it was found on Dr. Rockso's Official MySpace. Then what is the link to it???

metalocalypse trivia

would you support Metalocalypse trivia. its up for deletion and i feel its relivant

By definition, trivia is unimportant. You're gonna have trouble with that one on Wikipedia. The way to ensure that the information stays in the article is to incorporate it into an existing section or make a new section with some theme other than 'trivia'. MGlosenger 02:01, 15 December 2006 (UTC)

i agree with both. theres a lot of information about metalocalypse that would be lost. but "metalocalypse trivia" just doesn't seem like a decent enough header. i mean, this is an encyclopedia. how about "Metalocalypse References" "References in Metalocalypse" or, the idea i put forth, how about individual pages for each episode, someone did it, but got deleated. if we had an individual page for each episode, the trivia wouldn't seem as big, cause it would obviously be split up into 19 parts. and if we had pages we could put more inofrmation. like longer plot lines, screen shots, ect.

I think individual episode pages is an excellent idea. A lot of shows have that, and it would make things a lot more cohesive in general. Karpsmöm 03:34, 15 December 2006 (UTC)

Re-redirected a Dethklok page to here

The person who last removed the redirect said that "once they release an album" they should be considered a "real" band (whatever "real" means in this context). Since a Dethklok album hasn't been released yet, I've restored the redirect. Besides, all the information on that page was already here, and there's no need for redundancy. --Boradis 23:29, 17 December 2006 (UTC)

Wikia trivia page

Please leave the link alone. The page is relevant to the article and of interest.--Skyraider 00:02, 22 December 2006 (UTC)

One, you've made it on Wiki scratchpad. It's a temp Wiki and nothing more. Two, it's a badly formatted carbon copy of deleted material. All the internal links don't even work. Three, WP:EL supports its removal as external link spam. – Someguy0830 (T | C) 00:24, 22 December 2006 (UTC)

"Blood Ocean" Limited MP3 release on Dethklok's official MySpace

In the song list it has "Blood Ocean" as a "limited MP3 release on Dethklok's official MySpace" but if you go to the page you can't download the song, so I would say this was never release. Correct me if I am wrong but I think it may need some rewording. --Peavey5150 21:29, 21 December 2006 (UTC)

It actually was released for a brief time, hence the "limited." It's just not available for download anymore.Karpsmöm 05:24, 22 December 2006 (UTC)

Sorry my mistake --Peavey5150 17:45, 22 December 2006 (UTC)

The Corpse Paint and demon traits.

There's something I feel should be mentioned. I've noticed that half of the time (Maybe even most of the time) Dethklok DOESN'T wear corpse paint during their performances. I haven't counted, but there are a significant number of episodes where the band performs without makeup, some examples being Dethtroll, Bluesklok, and even the season finale The Metalocalypse has Begun.

Secondly, the article doesn't specifically say what demon traits the band has demonstrated. I'm not an expert on wikipedia standards, but I don't see the purpose of mentioning something like that, but not giving examples. 24.255.163.136 23:55, 24 December 2006 (UTC)

Album News

Im not sure where to put this since the album page was taken away, but according to this link (http://metalinjection.net/blog/2006/12/27/latest-news-dethklok-carnivore-god-forbid-and-pantheon-i/), the drummer from Strapping Young Lad, Gene Holgan, will be playing the drums for the album. It also says the recording is taking place in Bomb Shelter Studios in L.A. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 68.193.125.182 (talk) 22:49, 31 December 2006 (UTC).

FBL?
