BY E.E. BRADMAN IT’S 12:30 ON A WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON, AND I’M TALKING TO BRYAN BELLER, who’s on his way to the helicopter that will take him to tonight’s sold-out Dethklok show. Klokateers, the band’s hooded helpers, will be at the door to pass out Dethklok tattoos, and bartenders will serve drinks with specially made cocktail napkins. Eight hours later, the band is scheduled to take the stage, kick ass, and accept the adulation of the thousands of rabid fans who snapped up tickets in time. Beller’s got a million things on his mind—there are albums to mix, sessions to plan, and tours in the balance—but his primary job tonight will be to make William Murderface, the bassist of Dethklok, sound good to a Comic-Con audience full of hardcore metal fans. And as anyone who’s ever seen Adult Swim’s hit cartoon series Metalocalypse knows, that’s a mighty Herculean task.

  • BRENDON SMALL's GALAKTIKON: "A High Stakes Intergalactic Extreme Rock Album", His Long-Awaited Side Project Set to Release in April 2012
    For Immediate Release February 20th, 2012 Metalocalypse Co-Creator Announces New Side Project: BRENDON SMALL’s GALAKTIKON BRENDON SMALL is the co-creator/ writer/ actor/ director/ producer/ of ADULT SWIM'S METALOCALYPSE television series. Brendon Small is also responsible for writing and performing all of the show's music and DETHKLOK: THE DETHALBUM and DETHALBUM II, the latter now known as the fastest-selling death metal album to date. Now, Brendon has written and produced BRENDON SMALL's GALAKTIKON: "A High Stakes Intergalactic Extreme Rock album", his long-awaited side project set to release in April 2012. The album release will coincide with the Season 4 premiere of METALOCALYPSE. Coming off of the second DETHKLOK album which was heavier and darker than the first, BRENDON SMALL’s GALAKTIKON searches for melody (in the vocal) and finds inspirations in modern black metal, Queen, Foo Fighters, Soundgarden, Smashing Pumpkins and Weezer. No influence is unwelcome on this project. Brendon Small paired with DETHKLOK drummer (legendary metal drummer) Gene Hoglan (Dethklok, Strapping Young Lad, Testament, Fear Factory) and DETHKLOK bassist Bryan Beller (Dethklok, Steve Vai, Mike Keneally band) and DETHKLOK engineer and mixer Ulrich Wild. “This album should be thought of as an audio comic book, an over acted chamber drama, a ridiculous premise that takes itself way too seriously all the way to the end,” states Brendon Small. BRENDON SMALL’s GALAKTIKON comes as a follow up to Brendon’s work on the chart-topping DETHKLOK albums based on METALOCALYPSE and released by Williams Street Records. DETHKLOK: THE DETHALBUM debuted at #21 on the Billboard Top 200 with over 30,000 copies sold in the first week and held the “fastest- selling death metal album to date” position originally until the follow-up, DETHALBUM II, surpassed it to break the aforementioned record with a #15 debut on the Billboard Top 200.

  • INTERTEXTUALITA V SERIÁLI METALOCALYPSE Stupeň, Forma
    276 11. ŠTUDENTSKÁ VEDECKÁ A UMELECKÁ KONFERENCIA INTERTEXTUALITA V SERIÁLI METALOCALYPSE PETER HAJDU Stupeň, forma, ročník štúdia: Mgr., denná, 2. Študijný program: masmediálne štúdiá Konzultant: Mgr. Eva Peknušiaková, PhD. Kľúčové slová: intertextualita, Metalocalypse, kultúrne odkazy 1 Úvod Na Slovensku nie príliš známy animovaný seriál Metalocalypse sa v Spojených štátoch americ- kých teší mimoriadnej obľube. Vysielaný je od roku 2006 na káblovej stanici Adult Swim. Doposiaľ vznikli štyri série a jeden strednometrážny televízny film, čo sa na prvý pohľad nemusí zdať veľa, avšak už teraz možno seriál označiť za kultový. Seriál určený pôvodne pre relatívne úzke a okrajové publikum, akým metalová subkultúra určite je, sa stal na spomínanej stanici jedným z najúspešnejších a prvá séria bola dokonca najsledovanejším programom Adult Swim vôbec (Švelch, 2008, s. 92). Ako mnoho iných seriálov, aj Metalocalypse je plný odkazov na rôzne kultúrne fenomény alebo javy a často „žmurká na diváka“. Je však pravdepodobné, že príjemca, ktorý nepozná metalovú scénu, bude o množstvo narážok ochudobnený. V príspevku rozoberáme najmä tieto odkazy, avšak nepo- všimnuté neostanú ani tie, ktoré dávajú zmysel aj mainstreamovému divákovi. 1.1 Stručný obsah seriálu Metalocalypse Hlavnými postavami Metalocalypse sú členovia death metalovej kapely Dethklok, okolo ktorých sa sústredí všetok dej seriálu. Sú kultúrnou veľmocou sveta, patria k najväčším ekonomickým moc- nostiam, no zároveň majú problémy s bežnými činnosťami každodenného života, ako napr. nakupo- vanie. Seriál je postavený na absurdite metalových klišé a je paródiou a zároveň oslavou metalového životného štýlu. 1.2 Groteska Seriál Metalocalypse patrí svojím scenárom (okrem iného) k žánru grotesky. Krátky slovník slo- venského jazyka označuje grotesku ako umelecký útvar s humoristickými, karikatúrnymi prvkami a situačnými zvratmi.

  • Bryan-Beller-EPK.Pdf
    1 BRYAN BELLER - Electronic Press Kit Biography Bryan Beller has maintained a frenetic, multi- faceted career as a bassist, composer, solo artist, writer and clinician for over twenty-five years. Beller’s reputation as a uniquely talented yet supremely tasteful team player for adventurous instrumentally-minded artists is clearly evidenced in his work for some of the industry’s top names. He’s been Joe Satriani’s touring bassist since 2013, notching three world tours and several cuts on Satch’s 2015 release Shockwave Supernova. Beller’s also the bassist of the rock/fusion super- trio The Aristocrats (with uber-players Guthrie Govan on guitar and Marco Minnemann on drums), one of the hottest acts in the genre today. The Aristocrats released six critically acclaimed albums in five short years, with their sixth (You Know What…?) on the way in 2019. Their three success- ful world tours even included joining Satriani and Steve Vai for a G3 run in Europe. This high profile work has landed Beller on the pages of numerous music magazines, including cover features in Bass Player and Bass Musician magazines. As a solo artist, Beller’s most current effort is the epic-scale modern progressive double concept album Scenes From The Flood. Set for a 2019 release, the massive 2CD/2LP work employs an all-star cast of 26 musicians (including Joe Satriani, John Petrucci, Guthrie Govan, Mike Keneally, Gene Hoglan, Joe Travers, Haken’s Ray Hearne, and many more) to explore themes of ambition and loss, intentionality and reality, hope and disillusionment, and uses every second of its 18-song, 88-minute running order to tell an emotionally consuming and unforgettable musical story.
