METALOCALYPSE/DETHKLOK - Brendon Small Interview - Lambgoat's Vanflip Podcast (Ep. #111)

Brendon Small is an actor, comedian, writer, director, producer, and musician. Small created the animated series Homes Movies in 1999 and also had a love for metal music. In 2006 both of those worlds collided when Small began to create Metalocalpyse, a show based around the fictional death metal band Dethklok, for whom Small writes the music as well. Recently the Metalocalypse series was revamped for a feature film which was released in August along with a Dethklok material-heavy soundtrack.
