It's been a few months since the #MetalocalypseNow campaign to get the animated death metal show another season and things have been pretty quiet. We haven't heard from any of the show runners about the possibility of a new season, but we may be getting some news soon.
Over the weekend, creator Brendon Small posted the following photo:
Now, it's hard to see exactly what Brendon is working on. The only thing not blurred out is "The Next Record" and the initials "A.D.S."
A fan in the comments points out that "A.D.S." likely stands for "Army of the Doomstar," signaling that this may in fact be the next Dethklok album. The Dethklok Wikia notes that "Army of the Doomstar" is likely the title of the next installment of the show. So the pieces of the puzzle are there.
When I interviewed Brendon last year about the campaign to bring the show back, he offered a few hints as to where the series might go:

Small has been keeping a relatively low profile as of late, but he did poke his head out to appear in a new Rocksmith ad:
No joke – check out our new commercial featuring Brendon Small and Steve Agee!
