Metalocalypse

[fredsolo]

This thread is to name all the references to Metal bands and songs in Metalocalypse.

I remember this ones.

The Curse of Dethklok: Nathan mentions the songs "Every Bone Broken,” "Rotted Body Landslide,” and "Hammer Smashed Face" by Cannibal Corpse.

Klokblocked: The restaurant the band goes to is called Mastodon. 

The Revengencers: The hospital is called Necrophagist Hospital

Dethcarraldo: Pickles mentions that the story about Nathan's grandma is like a Cannibal Corpse song.

Thats all I remember now. Can you list more?

 PR Klok with the agency named Exodius

[gabrielle_x]

Marduk mini golf and Gorgoroths medical supplies.

[MetalWook]

it make for a great album cover (talking about the dethcooks previous deaths)

Ironically It is a direct refernce to  a death metal band ( either mayhem or emporer) who committed suicide and the previous band mates did attempt to use a picture of his head blown out for a the album cover...

( I love music, I love rock and roll history) I love the fact brandon found a way to tie it in with Dethklok  ( Mash potatoes johnson , is a direct spoof of blues legnd "Robert Johnson" The first man in legend to sell his soul to the devil for blues fame)

Mayhem.
And I did not know that....

As for this thread...there are soo many references, that it's hard to keep up.....my brain would explode trying to remember them, but it will be nice to have this thread floated so people can get them all in.

Also, at the start of a new page, can someone compile all the known references?

[hungryfreak]

Let's see what I can remember off the top of my head(ones that haven't been mentioned yet).

PR Klok; the comet there was also named the Nile comet.

Dethstars; the people producing blood ocean are called 'Behemoth Productions.

Dethcarraldo: One of the pilots was referred to as Hellhammer

The supermarket that appears in various episodes is called Finntroll's

The Metalocalypse has Begun; The place they play at is called the Gulf of Danzig

Edit: last reference corected

I checked up and it turn out it was Gulf of Danzig. Gonna edit my post. Thank you, though.

[inhumanrampager]

dammit, I have it on now!!! Bastid.

But I do think Burzum is used somewhere else in the show, same with Marduk.....and well, a crap load of other bands.

[hungryfreak]

I'm evil like that

Yeah, Burzum definitely appeared somewhere. Also, a couple more I remembered(though not necessarily metal):

Happy Dethday; When they show Murderface his true gift, Toki says "Big fat tires and everything!" a line from Deep Purple's song "Highway Star"

Snakes n' Barrels; The bands name is an obvious parody of Guns n' Roses 

[inhumanrampager]

Among other bands...like Led Zepplin....and um.....a couple others, I think.

[hungryfreak]

I'm saying name-wise, though.

[inhumanrampager]

Well yea, but I'm goin for the full on character refs as well....but that'll be hard so I should just give up that battle, huh?

[MetalWook]

yes its funny...cuz I see them and know of them all the time

( Dimmu Burger)  The job nathan Explosion has in his dream , the bands name i think is "Dimmu Borger" I dont know much about them

I know there are several more, I cant think of anything at this moment

[inhumanrampager]

Dimmu Borgir, melodic black metal band....saw them live, front row. Amazing.

Also, my brain hurts from tryin to think of references.....I dunno if anyone mentioned Carpathian Forest High (Band is Carpathian Forest) yet.....

[gabrielle_x]

Burzum's was the name of the restaraunt they went to in Dethfam, 3 metal references in that episode ALONE!!

[Sekiath]

What about the voice cameos in the shows?

[MetalWook]

King Diamond is The devil in the mash potatoes Johnson episode,

The comedic instructor is James hetfield ( I think he is also the cook)

The Dutch queen is Kirk Hammett

Other then those characters i know they have done other voices , I keep wondering if any of them helped with some of the music writing, or rather, some of the leads could have been Hammett influenced

The chord configurations and solo techniques used in "Go Into The Water" sound very Brian May-ish ( the lead guitarist of Queen)

At first I though james hetfield may have done the pickles vocal for "hatred Coptor" but no...Its all Brendon Small

when i see all the guest names i will go re watch looking for the character voice...some times Im dead on and then there are the other episodes in which I have no clue who they did

You mean the sewn back together wrong chef?  No, he's voiced by Mark Hamill.

[MetalWook]

I could have sworn it was hetfield but yes "the sewn back together cook"

I wish that song would have been on the album

[troyexplosion]

yeah but its way too short plus they already took duncan hills coffee frum the same episode and put it on the dethalbum
