Worth the Trouble September 28, 2007 22 out of 23 found this review helpful
I was rather disappointed when Amazon informed me that they couldn't get me a copy, and even more upset when I discovered that no online stores seemed to have the deluxe edition in stock. Yesterday my girlfriend found the deluxe edition on the shelf at Hot Topic, and I've heard from others that stores have copies on their shelves, so I'm rather confused as to why nobody has it available online.
As for the album itself, it was definitely worth the trouble. I've been incredibly disappointed with metal albums for the last few years, but this one is incredible. It's rather sad that Brendon Small can throw something together that blows the "serious" metal bands out of the water.
My favorite track has got to be Kill You off of the bonus disc. I'd love for Pickel's to do his own solo album :)
In short the album is brutal and I highly recommend it. Hopefully Dethklok will be around for a long time.

Watch Video Here: http://www.amazon.com/review/RTIX84LSB00ZL When "Dethalbum" was released, this deluxe edtiion was almost nowhere to be found. The demand had been underestimated and for several weeks following it's release, this CD could not be obtained unless you were willing to pay $100 from one of the bloodsuckers who managed to snag one on release day. I was not. In spite of this difficulty, "Dethalbum" became the highest charting death metal album of all time. That, my friends, is impressive, particularly for a band that doesn't really exist.
Fans of bands like of Arch Enemy, Cannibal Corpse, and Slayer will eat this album up even if they haven't seen Metalocalypse, the show that this CD serves as a soundtrack for. "Go Into the Water", "Fansong", and "Awaken" remain my favorites along with "Dethharmonic" which I specifically mention in the review. "Thunderhorse" (which was featured in the video game "Guitar Hero 2"), "Go Forth and Die", and some of the others are still great, but they worked better with the visuals accompanying them on the show. All in all, an awesome album that is only held back by the fact that the half-a$zed deluxe edition content seems like a rip-off in hindsight.
4 1/2 stars, rounded down in the spirit of brutality!
Better than most real bands! September 25, 2007 14 out of 14 found this review helpful
For an album from a group of cartoon musicians, this thing succeeds where many metal albums fail. It's almost sad that something that's best described as Spinal Tap meets Slayer, does a better job with metal than some actual metal bands. This album rocks hard. The music ranges from just in your face brutal to melodic and really cranks up the speed on some songs. "Go Into The Water", "Thunderhorse", and "Dethharmonic" showcase the best of what this album has to offer, but no song really disappoints. And the extra songs on this Deluxe Edition actually make it worth picking up. Alot of musicians like to just slap an extra CD in and call it "Special" or "Deluxe". Not the case here, the songs on disc 2 live up to and in the case of "Blood Ocean" possibly surpass the material on the disc 1. Yeah, maybe they could have just put all the songs on the album so those who can't find the Deluxe Edition don't feel they're missing out. But since this review is about the Deluxe Edition, it's a moot point. If you like metal, add this to your collection.
What's the deal? September 26, 2007 12 out of 63 found this review helpful
Now, don't let my rating fool you. I'm a huge Dethklok/Metalocalypse/Death Metal fan. The One star is aimed more at the fact that the Deluxe album is unable to be sold. And I know I'm not the only fan willing to shell out a few extra dollars for that extra disk which, from what I've heard, has some amazing music on it. So I ask, what's the deal? Why isn't the deluxe version on sale? And thus, I rate one star, for lack of supply to my demand.
IT's AWESOME, and can be had for $11.99 September 28, 2007 9 out of 21 found this review helpful
This album is so metal.
Seriously, the deluxe edition, with artwork and even a free music video is available on iTunes for $11.99. Just download it and it has a higher bitrate than the CD and three extra tracks.
Oh and you will have it in five minutes.
