Metalocalypse aired on Adult Swim from 2006 to 2013, created by Brendon Small and Tommy Blacha as a parody of the music industry built around the fictional death-metal band Dethklok. The show's short interstitial gags, including the Weather Bureau bit, became fan favorites that viewers clipped and traded on early meme soundboards and video edits. Because the bumper is only two seconds long, it survived as a handy transition sound: editors drop it before fake broadcasts, and its official-sounding tone makes any silly follow-up feel like real breaking news.

A two-second Metalocalypse jingle introducing the parody Weather Bureau segment. Creators use it to set up fake weather reports and comic transition gags.
This is a two-second bumper from Metalocalypse, Adult Swim's animated series about the world's biggest death-metal band, Dethklok, that introduces the show's recurring Weather Bureau gag. It plays like a classic TV news sting with a metal edge: a burst of loud guitars and drums that hits hard and cuts out fast, leaving the joke to land on the weather report itself. Its charm is the contrast between a serious broadcast tone and the show's over-the-top metal attitude, which is why it works as a transition, telling viewers something absurd and official is about to happen.
