Dëthkløk to headline brutal summer tour :: Music News :: Articles

Skwisgaar Skwigelf (taller than a tree), Toki Wartooth (not a bumble bee), William Murderface (Muderface Murderface), Pickles the drummer (doodly doodly doo doodly doo) and Nathan Explosion will rain chaos on 28 cities this summer. After becoming the highest charting death metal band ever with their release of The Dethalbum last year, Dëthkløk will tour with the support of reknowned metal bands Chimaira and Soilent Green.

The mastermind behind the band and co-creator of Adult Swim show Metalocalypse, Brendon Small (also the voice of Explosion, Skwisgaar and Pickles), will bring the cartoon characters' music to life with the help of guitarist Mike Keneally, bassist Bryan Beller and drummer Gene Hoglan.

The path of destruction will look something like this:
