Set to be unleashed on August 22nd, Adult Swim, Brendon Small & Tommy Blacha's full-length, series-continuing film Metalocalypse: Army of the Doomstar begins after the heroic rescue of Toki Wartooth. DETHKLOK frontman Nathan Explosion finds himself traumatized in a brutal professional & romantic flat-spin – all while he is tasked with fulfilling the prophecy and confronting the ultimate songwriting challenge to save the planet. Can Nathan Explosion look beyond his brutally damaged ego to save his band, stop the Metalocalypse, and finally face the ultimate evil: Salacia? We're not sure "The Big Bad" is going to give him a lot of time to decide based on the preview clip that you're about to see – because it's pretty clear that Salacia already has Nathan Explosion on his radar.
