Dethklok's “Dethalbum IV” - Review

By Sage C.

Adult Swim brought us many classic shows such as The Boondocks, Robot Chicken and Rick and Morty; but nothing expanded beyond television than our favorite virtual death metal band Dethklok.

Dethalbum IV takes us through the horrors of PMS (Bloodbath), a murderous gardener (Gardener of Vengence) and how you can’t even trust the food you eat (Poisoned by Food). The bloodbath saga of the Murmaider continues in “Murmaider III”. They showcased the beginning of the underwater horror story on their “The Deathalbum” (2007), and continued on Deathalbum II (2009) in “Murmaider II”.

“Horse of Fire” gives us a grimmer idea of the biblical end times. “Aortic Desecration” describes what getting an artery mutilated feels like. Ever want to know how your dog feels about you? “I Am The Beast” says it all. “Satellite Bleeding” makes me think of a darker version of Space Oddity and I love it. “DEADFACE” should get its own movie franchise. “SOS” is like if a pirate or someone lost at sea is on their last breath..

Rating: 8/10

Suggested Listens: Gardener of Vengeance, Bloodbath, and I am the Beast
