YOUR LIFE WAS ENDED BY MERMAIDS.

Speaking as someone who never really listens to metal (at the risk of sounding like a total plebian poseur, I appreciate Metallica's older stuff and Anthrax, but own no albums), let me now declare, just four songs in, that Dethklok's album "Dethalbum" is absolutely ass-kicking head-bangingly fucking magnificent.

I've never before heard something that's so hilarious, while actually being truly awesome. For those who don't watch METALOCALYPSE, imagine a darker, malevolent Spinal Tap, but with actually excellent music to go with the absurd lyrics.

Speaking of those lyrics, it really helps to read alongside them, as I can't understand most of what Nathan Explosion says. But that's the point, isn't it?

This album is most assuredly not dildos.
