Dethklok, the world-renowned animated metal band, has excitedly announced their upcoming U.S. tour for April 2024. Titled the "Mutilation on a Spring Night Tour", the band will be joined by special guests DragonForce and Nekrogoblikon. The tour, which promises a blend of elaborate guitar work and theatrical metal, is slated to run from April 7th through May 3rd, marking a significant return to the stage for Dethklok, produced by Live Nation. Tickets are available HERE.
The tour announcement follows a year of significant activity for Dethklok, including the release of Army of the Doomstar, a sequel to their 2013 special, Metalocalypse: The Doomstar Requiem. 2023 also saw the release of the soundtrack for Army of the Doomstar, as well as Dethalbum IV, which has been celebrated as the band's most acclaimed album to date, featuring tracks like "Aortic Desecration," "SOS," and "Gardener of Vengeance."
Brendon Small, the musical mastermind behind Dethklok, shared his enthusiasm for the upcoming tour, emphasizing the fun of combining "dragons, goblins, and 'kloks." Small's dedication to delivering an over-the-top live experience reflects his broader approach to music and performance, which includes a rich collaboration with legendary metal drummer Gene Hoglan.
The "Mutilation on a Spring Night Tour" not only represents an opportunity for fans to experience Dethklok's live performance but also underscores the band's unique position in the metal and entertainment worlds.
