Dethklok

Any good? Worth picking up?

I've wondered the same thing myself.

this generations Archies? i wouldn't think so.

Yikes. Nope, not for me. Hey MC666 have you listened to Vektor? Pretty good stuff to me.

i have Demolition & Black Future. very good prog thrash.

Negative. They're bassically the Steel Panther of death metal, or hardcore, whatever subgenre they decide to throw them into.

I like them. Yeah, they're a fictitious comedy band but good music is good music. I'll say it like this - as these things go I'd much rather listen to Dethklok than Spinal Tap

I like the cartoon, but I heard some of their stuff on sattellite radio. Not my cuppa tea in the vocals. And like DC said, sorta like Steel Panther of death metal. I think the joke would were thin pretty quick.

Spinal Tap is good every once in a while. I think I will abstain from the Dethklok.

Same here. I don't need another joke band in my collection.

I like 'em, like Sheets said, they have some pretty good stuff, despite being a "joke band". "Metalocalypse" is genuinely funny, excellent biting satire poking fun at the whole metal band shenanigans, akin to "Spinal Tap", but updated. Brendon Small is an excellent musician and composer too, so don't dismiss them too quickly.
