You may notice (or not) YouTube Wednesday was out of its normal place these weeks. This is deliberate, as today is Jandeku's birthday: as such, here's for best wishes and a little private joke on my part with this week's clip.
Dethklok is a virtual band, not unlike Gorillaz, created by Brandon Small and drummer Gene Hoglan for the Adult Swim show Metlocalypse (which I advise everyone to see if you like to poke fun at metal band stereotypes), and they have written the ultimate birthday song as shown below. Happy Birthday, Jandeku, you're gonna die.
(Edit Mar 5: As was pointed out by Holkie on comments, it was Brandon Small and Tommy Blacha who created the band.)

Ah, no. Dethklok was created by Brendon Small and Tommy Blacha for the show Metalocalypse (on Adult Swim).
Gene Hoglan was hired by Brendon at the end of Season 1 to play the drums on the Dethalbum. (Brendon had used a drum machine during the first season while he played all the guitars.)
They have since used Gene on drums for all of the 2nd season songs as well as redoing the theme with Gene drumming.
Oh, thank you very much for the correction, I will add an errata to the post.
