What do you think about Dethklok?

It's actually the guy behind the "Dethklok" Adult Swim show. The show is stupid enough that I don't watch it anymore but I like the music. The first release was more of a satirical take on metal and the lyrics are mostly just funny (if you can understand them). "The Lost Vikings" is a metal song about a group of vikings who go ride out to battle, get lost and refuse to ask for directions. "Murmaider" is a warning about the dangers of murdering murmaids. The second album is a good deal harder (or as they would say, "more brutal").

Pretty good, but dunno if it passes my threshold to purchase. I like the musical style, but the lyrics are a bit weak and too low..I'm not a fan of the 'demonic' voice/scream. Its got a decent mix of beats, its not the same beat over and over like some of the metal bands suffer from.

Here is my current favorite In Flames. Its like you take the energy and speed of Dragonforce and give it the symphonic element of Rhapsody & Nightwish. Of course they're Euro~
