Arrrrghghghg my friends and boyfriend are all sick of me rambling about this and I'm sick of them being sick of me rambling about it LOL
So who'se seen and mayhaps fallen in love with the Doomstar Requiem?! It exceeded my expectations, and my expectations were pretty damn high seeing as I'm not a fan of musicals, but knew I could count on Brendon Small and Gene Hoglan's musical genius to impress. But wow LOL.
A. Favorite songs?!
B. Fav part?!
C. Did anyone else lose their everloving OMFG shit when they saw Oftensen at the end of the end credits?!?
I die a little bit every single day season 5 isn't out.
P.S.
Feel free to discuss Metalocalypse in general as well, I have a normal obsession for that as opposed to my unhealthy obsession with Doomstar XD

I love the show but I'm not sure what Doomstar is.
Ah, a rock opera special.
I've seen a bunch of episodes but not in any kind of order or frequency. Would you suggest watching all the seasons before watching that? I saw it on the dish guide and set the PVR to record all episodes but then it started recording Tim and Eric show. Bummer.

Ohhhh yessss I definitely recommend watching all of the series first, if you can, in order lol. Yeah, there's a lot of irrelevant pure LOLs episodes, but there's moments with story progression. And even in the mindless episodes there's hints thrown in here and there.
Doomstar Requiem is aaalllllllll story based and the music is mind blowingly amazing XD

Heh I'll try and get my hands on every season. I fell in love with the band ever since I played Guitar Hero 2. They had Thunderhorse, I think it was. It was one of my favorite songs to play. Then I learned through my sister about the show and it's right up my alley.
I remember reading how the bass player was angry about how his playing is mostly drowned out in the songs, and it's so true with that kind of music xD I'm a bass player and it's one of the few types of music I don't like to play, because your usually just playing the same notes as the rhythm guitarist. Not like Rush, for example heh
Who is your favorite character? I like the guy who's all ripped haha He talks all funnys, if I remember dats correctly. I'm clearly not an equal fan, I don't even know their names.

TOKI XD he was originally my fav too, I love him and the lead guitarist lol their interactions and the way they talk in general is hilarious. I'd say Pickles the dtummer and Nathan Explosion are my two favroites, which is weird cause I didn't care for Pickles at first lol but season 1 didn't flesh out the characters quite as well as the following seasons... Although if non-band members count, Oftensen, the band manager is my absolute fav and potentially one of my fav cartoon characters ever :D he tote's sings in the Doomstar too DX SO BADASS
AND THE POOR BASSIST XD if you play bass you'll deffs be able to appreciate a bunch of the jokes LOL. "THAT'S MY BASS PLAYINH HAND!!" "UH OH! There goes the BAND!" XD and constantly trying to prove himself to be a valuable member of the band XD
If you don't mind minor spoilers, I recommend listening to Magnus and the Assassin from the Doomstar Requiem, maybe just with lyrics so the video doesn't spoil stuff, it'd make less sense without visuals lol it features Corpse Grinder from Cannibal Corpse

Everyone I know who watched the rock opera thing hated it. My brother went as far as to say that he felt betrayed and that it almost ruined the entire series for him, but he tends to take things like this too seriously anyway ("omfg this song is not metal I must boycott and express rage to anyone who will listen to me").
I keep meaning to watch it because I'm sure it's not that bad, at least not as long as the trademark Metalocalypse humour is intact.

Ohhhhhhhhh yes, there is a lot of non-metal songs lol it actually has a very similar feel and tone of the last few episodes of season 4, it has humor in it but it gets really dark and heavy, there's a loooottt of story progression and character development so it does have pretty serious moments but all in the name of setting up for season 5. There is a lot of non-metal songs lol there's one, Givin' Back To You, OMG. Such a great MJ spoof.
That's a pretty extreme hatred for the musical though OMG LMAO. I suppose if someone was going on expecting just an hour of hardcore Dethklok metal then I imagine it would be disappointing. I just love Brendon Small's work so every song easily won me over, it's just all very well written IMO

Got a hold of all 4 seasons. Slowly working my way through. I watched the first three so far and I remember watching all of them before. So maybe I saw more than I even remember. Totally remember that happy birthday song haha and the clown xD
