Belzebubs is a "trve kvlt mockumentary" focusing on the everyday challenges of family life: raising kids, running a small business, and making time for worship. Except the kids are named Lilith and Leviathan, the business is a black-metal band, and the worship... isn't exactly aimed upstairs.

the everyday challenges of family life: raising kids, running a small business,
and making time for worship. Except the kids are named Lilith and Leviathan, the
business is a blackmetal band, and the worship... isn't exactly aimed upstairs.
In a few short years, what started out as
improvised socialmedia doodles has now become a wildly successful webcomic with
hundreds of thousands of fans. The irresistible cartooning of JP Ahonen (Sing No
Evil) combines relatable sliceoflife humor with overthetop occult antics and
references from metal music to Lovecraftian horror, making Belzebubs a devil of
a good time.
The official Belzebubs tiein
music CD comes out January 2019 through Century Media (the world's largest heavy
metal record label). Has over 200,000 Facebook fans. For fans of Adult Swim's
Metalocalypse and other lighthearted spoofs of heavy metal & the occult
(which includes pretty much everyone in those
subcultures)
