Info for Galaktikon II: Become the Storm

Brendon Small ist der Drahtzieher hinter der kolossalen Metal-Band Dethklok und den Alben ›The Dethalbum‹ (dieses Death Metal-Album erreichte den Höchststand in den Billboard Top 200-Charts), ›Dethalbum II‹, ›Dethalbum III‹ und ›Metalocalypse: The Doomstar Requiem‹. Jetzt schlägt er ein neues Kapitel seiner beliebten Galaktikon-Saga auf.

Nachdem Brendon die letzten zwei Jahre mit Schreiben und Aufnehmen verbracht hat, steht das neue Material für das intergalaktische Extreme Rock/Metal-Album ›Galaktikon II: Become The Storm‹ für die Massen bereit. ›Galaktikon II‹ ist der Nachfolger des Konzept-Albums ›Galaktikon‹ aus dem Jahr 2012 mit Weltraum- Thematik und ist noch härter und düsterer mit noch brutalerem Sound.

Die gefeierten Musiker Bryan Beller (Bass - The Aristocrats, Dweezil Zappa, Steve Vai) und Gene Hoglan (Drums - Testament, Death, Dark Angel) wirkten an dem Album mit, das von Small und dem für den Grammy nominierten Produzent/Techniker Ulrich Wild produziert wurde. Albatross Funnybooks kündeten kürzlich an, im August eine sechsteilige Serie von Comicbüchern mit dem Titel GALAKTIKON! zu veröffentlichen, die auf dem Original-Album Galaktikon basiert.

Die Serie wird von Brendon Small und dem fünfmaligen Eisner Award gekrönten Gründer von Albatross, Eric Powell, geschrieben. Powell wird das Cover-Artwork gestalten, das innere Artwork wird Steve Mannion von Fearless Dawn und Spook House gestaltet.

Brendon Small
An American producer, animator, standup comedian, voice actor, and multi-instrumentalist, Springfield, Illinois native Brendon Small is best known as the co-creator of the popular animated television series Home Movies and Metalocalypse, the latter of which spawned the cult virtual death metal ensemble Dethklok. A Berklee College of Music graduate who also studied comedy and writing at Emerson College, Small and animator, screenwriter, and voice actor Loren Bouchard (Bob's Burgers, Lucy, The Daughter of the Devil) debuted their animated TV sitcom Home Movies in 1999 on UPN. After moving to Adult Swim, the show developed a cult following and enjoyed a four-season run. Bouchard would eventually go on to create the similarly successful Bob's Burgers, while Small and Thomas Blacha (Da Ali G Show, Late Night with Conan O'Brien) focused their efforts on developing the macabre animated black comedy Metalocalypse. Small contributed all of the music to the program -- he did the same with Home Movies -- and the show's neck-snapping house band, Dethklok, would go on to release a string of successful albums, including The Dethalbum (2007), Dethalbum II (2009), Dethalbum III (2012), and The Doomstar Requiem (2013) -- they even released a split CD with Texas alt-rockers And You Will Know Us by the Trail of Dead. In addition to his work with Dethklok, Small has released music under his own name, beginning in 2012 with Brendon Small's Galaktikon, which he described as a "high-stakes, intergalactic, extreme rock album." A sophomore outing, Brendon Small's Galaktikon II: Become the Storm, followed in 2017. (AMG)
