I hate Deathklok and all that it represents[views:38218][posts:218]_______________________________ [Jun 24,2008 2:07pm - aril ""] I stand alone, eh? |
| __________________________________________ [Jun 24,2008 2:09pm - corpus_colostomy ""] be alot cooler if they didnt use gay ass gibsons.. oh yeah and if it wasnt 15 minutes long. robot chicken disease.. |
| ______________________________ [Jun 24,2008 2:09pm - Mess ""] i know nothing about this group or the show and i plan to keep it that way |
| _________________________________ [Jun 24,2008 2:10pm - c.DeAd ""] Not completely. I hate the metal aspect of the show, but the comic sense and timing is pretty great. |
| ___________________________________________ [Jun 24,2008 2:10pm - FuckIsMySignature ""] eh lighten up. |
| _______________________________ [Jun 24,2008 2:10pm - aril ""] and the spelling is dethklok, eh? either i just made a fool out of myself, or the show is more stupid than I thought. |
| _______________________________ [Jun 24,2008 2:13pm - aril ""] sorry =\ can't lighten up about this. I'd rather have a pregnant buffalo take a shit in my ear than watch that show. |
| ______________________________ [Jun 24,2008 2:14pm - Mess ""] hate whatever and whoever the fuck you want man |

| _______________________________ [Jun 24,2008 2:20pm - aril ""] I don't have cable anymore. |
| ______________________________________ [Jun 24,2008 2:22pm - quintessence ""] I hate how it encourages the idea that metal is to made fun of, and that its fans embrace stupidity. |
| __________________________________ [Jun 24,2008 2:26pm - archaeon ""] You guys need to lighten up. It's for lolz. |
| ______________________________________ [Jun 24,2008 2:27pm - quintessence ""] well i DO laugh at it, and it is funny. But I guess i'm thinking about its influence on the younger generation of metal heads. It goes along with the whole viking metal explosion and basically pisses me off. Now that i think of it, I guess i'm just getting old. Damn kids don't know who Possessed and Kreator are. OFF MY LAWN! |
| ________________________________________________ [Jun 24,2008 2:30pm - thuringwethilsnarsnar ""] whatevs, dude, switch it off, then. that's all I do when I hear Pantera. It doesn't negate that band's existence or accomplishments, I just don't like it, so I exercise freedom of choice. Metalocalypse made by metal fans who happen to also be into comedy. You just have to watch his old cartoon "Home Movies" to see how out there Brendon is. damn, there's so many ways to piss off a metalhead, this just joined the list I guess. http://thephoenix.com//Boston/RecRoom/18997-METALOCALYPSE/ sincerely, the lame-ass Dethklok street teamer pretending to be Larissa :o) |
| _______________________________ [Jun 24,2008 2:32pm - aril ""] home movies was much better. dethklok ist stupid. If I want metal comedy I'll listen to 90% of USBM bands, including my own! |
| ___________________________________________ [Jun 24,2008 2:32pm - FuckIsMySignature ""] maybe you just have a poor sense of humor. |
| ________________________________________________ [Jun 24,2008 2:34pm - thuringwethilsnarsnar ""] well, if this opens doors TO Possessed, Kreator, Sodom, Celtic Forst, Venom, then cool! not all of us had a thrash metal older sibling. I remember being trapped in a lame bevy of Deadheads and classic rockers in school, then I heard Venom completely by accident and the sky opened up. |
| __________________________________________ [Jun 24,2008 2:35pm - corpus_colostomy ""] lol. shits good. im just saying. wish it was longer and i wish they used jacksons or bc rich cause im a gay dewd. |
| __________________________________________ [Jun 24,2008 2:37pm - largefreakatzero ""] The show = great. The band = terrible, but who cares. It's a joke. Metal (or anything, for that fact) should not be taken too seriously. |
| ______________________________________ [Jun 24,2008 2:38pm - quintessence ""] Yeah its good. I'll admit to enjoying some episodes. You wont see me going to a show though. Thats for sure. Isn't it just a projection screen with the cartoon characters playing along? |
| __________________________________ [Jun 24,2008 2:38pm - cav nli ""] i think the show is pretty funny.i just dont like the vocals when they do the music portion of it. its cheesy and not death metal sounding even though its supposed to be. |
| ________________________________________________ [Jun 24,2008 2:38pm - thuringwethilsnarsnar ""] BTW, I do think this is a debate worth having. think of the history of metal all the way to Wagner and there's plenty of branch-offs in Metal over the last generation that I think totally smoke the big hairy root. But others like those branch-offs just fine. There's no accounting for taste. Hmm. |
| ______________________________________ [Jun 24,2008 2:42pm - ArrowHeadNLI ""] cav%20nli said:and not death metal sounding even though its supposed to be. It's not supposed to be. You need to understand the lyrics to laugh at the jokes, right? As funny as "YYaaRRgJH UR UR Yaaagg Yaag dooooooooooohhhhhhhhggggg" is on it's own, the fan song and coffee jingle are fucking righteous comedy. |
| ______________________________ [Jun 24,2008 2:46pm - rev ""] baskelisk reunion!? oh, I not 'lowed to shoot it. |
| _______________________________ [Jun 24,2008 2:47pm - aril ""] I have a sense of humor; a slight one, but one nonetheless. I just think this show drags, the humor isn't top-notch, and the show is stale. The few times I've watched it, I laughed probably once or twice. As far as the metal thing goes, I think it is destroying some of the roots of metal and making a mockery of the whole genre. Something that IS funny, was a (Danish I think) commercial that had a bunch of Venom fans rocking out, then leaving and coming back to find their friend dancing around in girl clothes. That stuff is funny. Dethklock is not so funny. I love cartoons and humor and metal, and if I was to make a cartoon, I wouldn't make fun of metal. Unless it was Immortal's wintermoon video. |
| _________________________________ [Jun 24,2008 2:51pm - W3 nli ""] im sure it was stated but isnt this just the Monkees for metal kids. CB4 or Beavis and Butthead all over again. bit they do bring the ZAZZ |
| _______________________________ [Jun 24,2008 2:52pm - aril ""] Beavis and Butthead was clever and funny. That show is missed. |
| _________________________________ [Jun 24,2008 2:54pm - W3 nli ""] naw |
| ___________________________________________ [Jun 24,2008 2:59pm - FuckIsMySignature ""] i bet Beavis and Butthead would be fans of Metalocaplyse. |
| _______________________________ [Jun 24,2008 2:59pm - aril ""] ah man. two asshole, idiot teens watching music videos and making fun of them is more funny that a mock-metal band! and anything Mike Judge has ever done blows away dethklok! |
| ______________________________________ [Jun 24,2008 3:03pm - GoatCatalyst ""] People don't undestand my profound loathing of Shirley Temple. But fuck 'em. Wave the flag of intolerance with pride, Jim. Sometimes hate is a solitary undertaking. |
| ___________________________________________ [Jun 24,2008 3:04pm - FuckIsMySignature ""] Spinal Tap did this 20 years ago... dont see you gettin all bent outta shape over them. |
| __________________________________________ [Jun 24,2008 3:05pm - largefreakatzero ""] GoatCatalyst said:Sometimes hate is a solitary undertaking. Well put. I would venture to say that hate in its purest form is always a solitary undertaking. You know, with the brooding and such. |
| _______________________________ [Jun 24,2008 3:08pm - aril ""] I've been solitary about this for quite sometime. This is the first time I've posted this! It's a messageboard forum anyway; figured I'd throw a little spark in for discussion. I mean, I don't want to anger anyone with this, I just don't like it, that's all. |
| _______________________________ [Jun 24,2008 3:10pm - aril ""] And I have a feeling this is going to result in me getting kicked out of Herugrim. DYA loves this show. |
| ___________________________________________ [Jun 24,2008 3:11pm - FuckIsMySignature ""] you seem more angry about it than anyone. i just felt like stirrin the shit up lol. |
| _________________________________________ [Jun 24,2008 3:13pm - Conservationist ""] aril said:I stand alone, eh? Nope: http://www.anus.com/metal/about/metal/metalocalypse/ Many of us think that show is moron fodder by shiftless hipsters. |
| ______________________________ [Jun 24,2008 3:16pm - Yeti ""] no, i'm with you. i don't get the hype. i mean yeah its amusing, waka waka, a sarcastic approach to metal, but i just don't care for it. i think its an ok idea, it just hasn't ever grabbed me. |
| ______________________________ [Jun 24,2008 3:19pm - Yeti ""] that pretty much sums up exactly how i feel about this show. it was a way to cash in on the fact that the metal genre has become a commercialized wasteland. |
| ______________________________ [Jun 24,2008 3:27pm - Yeti ""] if i want to laugh at metal, i'll look at photoshopped Immortal pictures. i guess i'm just bothered at the fact that black and death metal bands are a dime a dozen now. seeing shows like this, or that Burger King commercial or whatever restaurant it was doing the black metal thing irks me for some reason. but thats why i am nomadic, us Yeti don't go with the flow. |
| _______________________________ [Jun 24,2008 3:32pm - aril ""] I guess I'm a Yeti too then. |
| ___________________________________ [Jun 24,2008 3:48pm - dreadkill ""] the first few episodes of the show weren't that funny, but once it hit its stride it got really funny. i don't really like seeing goofy alt-rock fans who wear nerd glasses getting into it for its irony and making metal jokes all the time, but i have way too many important things i'm worrying about to care about who is watching the show for irony and mocking metal. when it comes to tv, i want the shows i like to get wildly popular. that keeps them on the air. |
| __________________________________ [Jun 24,2008 3:54pm - brian_dc ""] never reading thread, but I don't care for this show. |
| _________________________________ [Jun 24,2008 4:05pm - W3 nli ""] fuck it dood, let's go bowling |
| ______________________________ [Jun 24,2008 4:18pm - rev ""] oh the show is fucking stupid. I hate when it's on. |

| _________________________________________ [Jun 24,2008 4:29pm - SacreligionNLI ""] the show is hit or miss. a lot of the dialogue cracks me the fuck up, and the guitar playing is really good on a lot of the music. by far not my favorite show, but I like it nonetheless. and for the record, if you listen to metal and can't laugh at it you should stab your guitarist, burn down some churches, and go to jail. |
