"Metalocalypse" Wreaks Havoc in New Season on Adult Swim

Season 4 Premieres Sunday, April 29 at 12:15 a.m. (ET/PT)

Dethklok is back and ready to shred on Adult Swim. Metalocalypse (the animated comedy) chronicles the world's most popular entertainment act in the known universe - extreme metal band, Dethklok - as they balance their rabid popularity with the brutality of every day life.

Season 4 of Metalocalypse premieres Sunday, April 29 at 12:15am (ET/PT) on Adult Swim. Metalocalypse is created by Brendon Small and Tommy Blacha. Small serves as executive producer. The show is produced at Titmouse Inc., Hollywood CA.

Brutality wields its uncomfortable deth-hammer in the fourth season of Metalocalypse. Excruciating horrors loom, waiting for the right moment to crush us all into a smooth repugnant paste, with very few lumps. Experience the lurking blackness of dating, the vomitous torture of job insecurity, the repulsive abhorrence of reality, the emasculating woe of dating a co-worker, and the pinching, sweaty waking DETH of flying coach. Will our beloved Dethklok survive these deathly trials or will they perish like a flaming serpent cast down by Odin? The Metalocalypse indeed looms nearer.
