Brandon Small has created a mini-cult following among metalheads and wanna-be filmmakers alike: first with Home Movies, then with Metalocalypse. In Metalocalypse in particular --a 15-minute cartoon chronicling the life and times of Dethklok, the greatest death metal band in human history-- Small has provided late-night gawkers with an absolutely brutal barrage of comedy and amazing music.
In this interview, Small waxes poetic about Dethklok's current tour, putting together a flesh-and-blood group for an animated band, the creative process at Adult Swim, and his humble beginnings as a student at Berklee/stand up comedian.

Anytime someone uses the term "waxes poetic" you know there is true genius behind the keyboard. Good show.
