Short description
Part-American, part-Scandinavian death-metal band Dethklok has a lingering effect on its fans, who take the words seriously and do anything Dethklok lyrics say. The government fears the band's influence and sets out to destroy it by covert means; for example, by sending military pharmaceutical psychotropic drug manufacturers. Deemed sociopaths for tossing hot coffee at their concert attendees, two of the band members are alcoholics, and they all have self-esteem issues.

What's left behind the scenes
- The animated series was originally intended to be called Death Clock Metalocalypse; however, since the rights to the name Death Clock were already registered to someone else, the title was changed to Dethklok Metalocalypse, and later shortened to Metalocalypse. The band in the series is still called Dethklok (a grammatically incorrect version of Death Clock).
- Work on the series (2006-2013) began when the images of nearly all the band members had already been found and approved. The only exception was the drummer, Pickles, whose image was difficult to create—and only after two dozen concepts had been considered and rejected.
- The grocery store in the first episode is named Fintroll's, which is a reference to the Finnish folk metal band. Other references to metal bands include the names of the restaurants Burzum and Dimmu Burger (referencing the Norwegian black metal band Dimmu Borgir), as well as the stores Marduk's and Gorgoroth (referencing Swedish and Norwegian black metal bands, respectively).
