If you never saw Home Movies, you missed one of the best shows to hit
the airwaves in the last several years, animated or otherwise. The show fared okay on Adult Swim for a short time,
after being rescued from UPN, but viewers gravitated toward weirder shows like Space Ghost and Aqua
Teen, leaving Home Movies to eventually whither and fall off the vine. Well, as I mentioned before, creator
Brendon Small is bringing a new show to Adult Swim in August called Death Clock Metalocalypse. The new
show is about a world-famous death metal band and may seem a far cry from Small's other show about a shy but
quick-witted kid who makes movies with his friends, but Small's love of RAWK was evident even on that
show, especially in the form of older kid Dwayne and his garage band. Death Clock Metalocalypse sounds like
the perfect mix of over-the-top, ear-busting chord thrashing mixed with the same dry and subtle humor as his earlier
work. YouTube has an extended teaser for the new series, which you can watch after the jump. I've seen segments of this
teaser on Adult Swim, but I'm not sure if they've ever played the whole thing or not. Enjoy, regardless.Adult Swim: What's coming and what's staying

Adult Swim has announced some new shows that will be coming down the
pike later this year, as well as some of the old standbys that'll be returning. Here's the rundown:
First off, we have Brendon Small's (Home Movies) new series about a heavy metal band, whose official name is now apparently Death Clock Metalocalypse.
The team who created Sealab 2021 is also returning with a new show called Frisky Dingo, about a super hero and a super criminal who aren't always that intrested in fighting one another.
