Highlights from Appetite for Distortion Podcast with Brendon Small

Listen to the podcast here

The tour, movie, and album being released around the same time was a deliberate decision. When Brendon started getting this project together around three years ago, he knew he's be putting together a record, a soundtrack, a movie, and a tour all within the same week.

How Brendon approaches writing the Dethalbum IV and creating Army of the Doomstar:

It's not him working. It's Dethklok literally telling him what to do. He's just a jerk with a guitar doing what Skwisgaar tells him to do. For vocals, he's doing what Nathan's telling him to do. When he's voicing them in the movie, those characters are taking over. He'll do the dialogue but they'll surprise him with improve.

Since Brendon's the scriptwriter and director, he's like an Angry God. He'll be like throwing them into ceiling fans or into a fire to see how they get out.

About Guns n'Roses and Snakes n'Barrels.

Slash has been on the show. Twice. (Birthdayface and Tributeklok) He's one of Brendon's favorite guitar players of all time.

Learning about heavy metal happens at an important age. For Brendon, he was around 13/14. He bought two distinct albums. Def Leppard's Hysteria and Guns N'Roses Appetite for Destruction. He was blown away to the astral plane of the music and aggressive guitar playing. It's still one of his favorite albums to this day. He'll take long walks listening to album front to back, top to bottom.

He thought that Pickles was like Dave Grohl. Like in a band like Guns n'Roses and Aerosmith like rock band before he was in Dethklok. There would be songs where Brendon used a top box to play.

One day, Slash was working on an animation at the same company Brendon worked at. There was a package that came with pedals from MXR Dunlop. Slash was there when that box came and they opened the box together and went through all these pedals. Slash looked at the pedals and pointed to Brendon which was one cool, which one he has and uses. Brendon even shows Slash's wall pedal that he also used on the record.

Now some fan questions.

Will Brendon ever release a studio version of Water Horsey Blues from Snakes n'Barrels I?

Brendon was surprised to hear the question. He's glad that people still listen to it all these years later. He wishes he had the time and resources to make music for these kinds of bands in the Metalocalypse universe. Like a Snakes n'Barrels record, a Dr. Rockzo record, even Toki's whimsical dream songs. But there's no plan as of yet.

Will Brendon ever plan on releasing the songs from Metalocalypse that didn't make it to the Dethklok albums. (please Brendon I'm on my knees.) Same answer. :,) He has no plan as of yet.

About the movie under the cut. Not spoiler heavy and mainly about the music.

Brendon does have a lot on his plate at the moment. He's got not one but two albums: Dethalbum IV and Army of the Doomstar Soundtrack.

To Brendon, the soundtrack album is really such an important storytelling part of the movie. As you watch the movie you'll hear the orchestra and synthesizer. (He got the Budapest Orchestra to play this score).

The movie, the narrative, the characters is one thing.

The Dethalbum IV, that's the brutality and the mystical.

Army of the Doomstar Soundtrack, the score, is the emotional center of the movie.

All three go together. If you plan on getting one, Brendon thinks you should get them all (the movie, ost, and album). They all do something completely different but they all come from the same central DNA.

Brendon is thankful to be able to complete the story. He's basically living the dream as the interviewer puts it.

Brendon's last words: It's fun to be creative on your own and make music for yourself to listen to. But the fact that this [Metalocalypse and Dethklok] came together in the way that it did, is because there's a fanbase out there. Without them, none of this would have happened. Thanks [for] everyone for being so vocal over the years and I'm excited for you to check it out.

[mistarover]

thank you insider magazine for putting why i hate middle of a breakup so much into words

[yifeiyay]

more splashy fun: ryo and seb went surfing. well idk if seb got off the boat

[fatheroffdensen]

at first i felt kinda weird about the 'dethklok hate church' clip bcuz of how theyre portraying toki and it was just surprising is all but i actually think it's a really good thing to be portraying an 'ugly' aspect of trauma and mental health in a more mainstream media and in a way that doesn't glamorize nor shame it. like yes it will be tough for loved ones to deal with but they're still patient and ohh my god i literally cannot fucking wait to see army of the doomstar and how toki's gonna be handled. ohghghr my god. brendon is such a guy.

[pansy2005]

Final Octonauts Week Day 7 Yay!!

You know I had to make a lil somethin for the chair the myth the legend‼️‼️

The best hc/theory I have co-conspired, our leader Brendon💺💺💺 For those that don’t know here’s what we’ve got:

Inklings chair in the HQ is sentient, we’ve named him Brendon

Brendon can speak telepathically to whoever is seated, he has the voice of Nelson the Elephant from 64 Zoo Lane (also Keith Wickham like Inkling) and ofc knows the secrets of the universe

Brendon contributes to Inklings knowledge, and the magical technology (co-created by Inklings brother, Squirts dad, who passed in testing) used to build Brendon is what allows Inkling to live outside of water, hence symbiosis (as Brendon would not have come to existence without Inklings construction)

No one else sits on Brendon, they don’t know about the sentience (only Inkling does) but when they were young I hc Codish took a seat, learned the secrets of the universe, and got brain scrambled, why they’re a little more scatterbrained than the other vegimals👍(also in the vegimal reflection theory, Codish pairs with Inkling)

This whole thing started because the chair has a heat signature in one scene, and the chair has a sentient shadow in the Sea of Shade Book. It also hovers and that’s WEIRD HSJS
