Throw up the devil horns for a heavy metal summer ahead; Metalocalypse: Army of the Doomstar is bringing the heaviest metal band ever created back together again for an action-packed journey that includes a feature film, TWO albums, and a tour.

The long-awaited return of Adult Swim’s favorite heavy metal adventure Metalocalypse arrives with an all-new, full-length animated movie. But that’s not all! In addition to a full-length original film, written and directed by Brendon Small, Metalocalypse: Army of the Doomstar, a companion soundtrack and Dethalbum IV will also arrive this year.

“The all-new animated movie begins after the heroic rescue of Toki Wartooth; Dethklok frontman Nathan Explosion finds himself traumatized in a BRUTAL professional and romantic flat-spin, all while he is tasked with fulfilling the prophecy and confronting the ultimate songwriting challenge to save the planet. Can Nathan Explosion look beyond his brutally damaged ego to save his band, stop the Metalocalypse, and finally face the ultimate evil: Salacia?”

Check out the new trailer below, then get ready for Dethklok’s return with a brand new single available for your ear holes now.

The movie will be available to purchase Digitally and on Blu-ray on August 22, 2023.

Fans can now pre-save Dethklok’s highly anticipated Dethalbum IV which includes all new original Dethklok songs, also releasing on August 22. The second album release, Metalocalypse: Army of the Doomstar (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack), will include additional songs plus an original movie score and will be released August 25.

Both albums will be released through WaterTower Music, who today released “Aortic Desecration”, the first new music from Dethalbum IV, and Dethklock’s first new music in almost 10 years! Dethalbum IV will also be available on vinyl through Mondo, and vinyl preorders are now live.
