Before you go out and buy ‘Dethalbum III,’ do yourself a pre-demise favor and check out the band’s new video for ‘The Galaxy.’ Dethklok told the story of an Egyptian pharaoh with a flaming ding-a-ling in their ‘ I Ejaculate Fire ‘ video, but in the new clip for ‘The Galaxy,’ vocalist Nathan Explosion has been taken capture by evil space robots and chained inside their death metal-hating space ship. Determined to save their singer, Toki Wartooth, William Murderface, Pickles and Skwisgaar Skwigelf fly their own ship through the stars, ready to intercept Nathan Explosion from the menacing androids. Suddenly, the band’s spaceship is attacked by hoards of enemy drones! To fight off the impending ambush by doing what they do best; playing some brain-melting metal. Dethklok plug their instruments into the ship’s defense systems and battle their enemies by shredding and blasting them away. But what happens to the captured Nathan Explosion? You’ll have to watch the video to find out. Dethklok are set to blast off on a headlining fall North American tour with Machine Head , All Shall Perish and the Black Dahlia Murder .
