Watch Dethklok in trailer for Metalocalypse movie and hear first new music in 10 years

A trailer has been released for the upcoming Metalocalypse: Army of the Doomstar movie – and it’s accompanied by a new song from Dethklok.

The film will be released on video-on-demand services and Blu-ray/DVD on 22 August and the railer can be viewed.

Also available to watch below is the lyric video for Dethklok’s first new song in 10 years – Aortic Desecration. The track is taken from the band’s upcoming new album, Dethalbum IV, released on the same day as the film.

Dethklok are the animated band who are the stars of the animated series Metalocopalypse which ran on Adult Swim from 2006 to 2013. It bristled with razor-sharp wit and hilarious parodies.

The show’s four seasons featured ultra-violent, ear-punishing videos, and knuckle dragging rock star narcissism. It featured guest appearances from James Hetfield and Kirk Hammett, Ihsahn, Devin Townsend, King Diamond, Mike Patton and George “Corpsegrinder” Fisher.

Also, Metalocalypse: The Complete Series will be released August 22 digitally and on DVD and containes all 63 episodes of the show.

And a soundtrack for Metalocalypse: Army of the Doomstar will follow on August 25.
