On this episode of The Adventures of Pipeman, we're joined by special guest Brendon Small about METALOCALYPSE & DETHKLOK.

Brendon discusses the importance of being able to get cameos from metal figureheads like Metallica. Pipeman and Brendon compare and contrast the differences in creating a full-length film compared to a tv series and the new challenges they had to face. Dethklok is also working on new music to coincide with the new animated film, the band's first record since 2013. Brendon explains how this latest project is a combination of polar opposites with the first half being devastating heavy metal and the last half being more mystical and thought-provoking. Dethalbum IV is streaming on platforms everywhere on August 22nd, as well as their newest animated movie Metalocalypse: Army of the Doomstar. Beginning August 30, DETHKLOK will be co-headlining a national tour with Japanese kawaii metal pioneers BABYMETAL. Picking up after the heroic rescue of Toki Wartooth, METALOCALYPSE: ARMY OF THE DOOMSTAR finds DETHKLOK frontman Nathan Explosion traumatized in a BRUTAL professional and romantic flat-spin all while he is tasked with fulfilling the prophecy and confronting the ultimate songwriting challenge: write the SONG OF SALVATION and save the planet.

On today's episode, I talk to TV writer Tommy Blacha. Originally from Detroit, Michigan, Tommy came to TV writing through the Chicago comedy scene. Besides his writing for the WWE, if there's been a weird comedy in the last two decade, chances are Tommy's had something to do with it. He wrote for Conan, where he created PimpBot5000, and has also written for The Eric Andre Show, Pretend Time, Human Giant, Andy Richter Controls the Universe, Da Ali G Show, Late Night with Zach, TV Funhouse, and SNL. He's been a voice actor on China, IL and Aqua Teen Hunger Force, and with Brendan Small, co-created the Adult Swim hit Metalocalypse! Currently, Tommy is executive producing and writing on the new Comedy Central show Moonbeam City.This is the website for Beginnings, subscribe on iTunes, follow me on Twitter.
