Who says a cartoon band can't pack the Hollywood Palladium ? As the band behind the larger-than-life animated death metal group in Comedy Central's Metalocalypse , Dethklok proved their real life worth during a ruckus Thursday night show at the famed L.A. venue last week.

In the Adult Swim series Metalocalypse , which recently began its third season by moving from a fifteen-minute spot to a half-hour one, Dethklok is so huge that they've spawned an economy larger than that of most countries, so famous that fans will do anything for them.

The real-life version of DETHKLOK , the animated band from Adult Swim 's "Metalocalypse" , has scheduled the following in-store signing sessions: Tuesday, November 17 at 4:30 p.m. Zia Records 1940 W. Chandler Blvd.

The cartoon Metalocalypse debuted a couple years ago, and immediately became a hit with both metal and non-metal fans.

Brendon Small 's Hollywood office is a compact space lined with posters and crammed with stuff: toys, papers, boxes.

Dethklok, the greatest heavy metal band on Earth, is coming to Charlotte Wednesday.

If you were standing outdoors in the neighborhood of Washington Avenue and Lark Street on Sunday night you might have thought, judging from the din, that it was the dawn of the Apocalypse.

Dethklok has emerged as the greatest band in the world. They are 100 times more influential than the Beatles, with an impact that makes followers commit suicide when an album is delayed.

When Slayer releases the deluxe edition of its forthcoming album, World Painted Blood , on November 3, the package will include a 20-minute DVD entitled Playing with Dolls , a horrifyingly gruesome video-graphic novel directed by Metalocalypse director and Slayer fan Mark Brooks.

The recently released Dethalbum II seeks to continue Brendan Small and Tommy Blacha's Dethalbum, which was released two years ago and parodied Scandinavian death metal on the television series "Metalocalypse," featured on Cartoon Network's Adult Swim.

It would be an understatement to say Dethklok 's performance Saturday night was overloaded.

Dethklok have returned with the long-awaited Dethalbum II, which hit the stores on Tuesday, September 29th.

They are the most hardcore death metal band in the world. At their shows, fans have to sign waivers stating that their families will not sue in case of accidental death.
