Shout Out: Discussing how their previous chef "blow his brain in" and how it made "a good album cover" is a reference to metal band Mayhem; lead singer Per Yngve Ohlin committed suicide with a shotgun blast to his head, and the band used a photo of his body in situ as the cover for the bootleg album "Dawn of the Black Hearts".
Fintroll, the name of the food libraries grocery store, is also the name of a Scandanavian folk metal band, but with one "N" missing from the store title.
Humorously, in Dethtroll, they do fight a troll. In Finland. Think about it.
"Here comes that guy!" "Quick, the Dethphones! Throw them at that guy!"
Nathan calls out "Rotten Body Landslide", "Every Bone Broken" chicken and "Hammer Smashed Face" over the store intercom. All are Cannibal Corpse song titles.
Their previous chef's life support system shows a strong resemblance to the cover of Voivod's "Killing Technology" album.
In other episodes:
One of the Revengencers wears a scrap of a dead man's face as a mask (essentially a Dead Skin Mask, after the Slayer song).
Movie mogul Grishnak is named after Count Grishnak, stage name of Burzum's Varg Vikernes.
Speaking of which, "Burzum's" is a family-style restaurant they've been to on at least one occasion.
In Dethfam, Murderface goes to buy his grandfather a electric wheelchair at Gorgoroth's Medical Supplies, an obvious shout-out to the Black Metal band of the same name.
Fast food restaurant Dimmu Burger is named after band Dimmu Borgir.
The cover of one of the band's albums - seen in Dethfashion, and later in Tributeklok - strongly resembles a typical Manowar album cover.
In Dethrecord, Murderface sings "Same Old Song And Dance" by Aerosmith.
In Birthdayface, Toki says the car has "big fat tires and everything", a lyric from Deep Purple's "Highway Star".
In Dethgov, the beginning scene has a man yelling that he is the "lunatic of God's creation". "Lunatic of God's Creation" is a song by Deicide from their self-titled album.
Toki's underwater performance in Dethwater is awfully remeniscent of Ringo Starr's "Octopus' Garden".
Timmy Razzle from Razzle Sticks in Snakes n' Barrels II is a possible reference to Nicholas "Razzle" Dingley, the drummer of Hanoi Rocks from 1982 until he died in a car crash in 1984.
The "Iced Earth Community Skating" rink in Tributeklok.
St. Necrophagist's, the hospital in Dethhealth.
In Fatherklok, the Swedish bar where Skwisgaar goes with his new stepdad is called Malmsteen's.
In Dethhealth, during a Disney Acid Sequence, the anthromorphic cat can be seen doing both the moonwalk and the thriller dance among others, in a possible homage to the recently deceased Michael Jackson.
In Cleanso, the machine Doctor Rockso is being tortured with is exactly the same as the one Han Solo was tortured with in Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back.
In Rehabklok, the drum machine is an obvious homage to the HAL 9000 from 2001: A Space Odyssey.
In Dethkids, towards the end of Toki's Disney Acid Sequence, when Pickles is shown amassing a large amount of balloons around himself and the resulting cluster rolling away, some could not help but think of Katamari Damacy.
The "Falcon Back" project is a rather obvious reference to metal band Falkenbach.
In episode 3 of season 4; a man in a crowd seems to wear a familiar hat worn by none other than Ash Ketchum from Pokémon Here's a link:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=liCnqBs02sc (At about the six minute mark)
The cover of "Skwisgaar Is Ams Dick" is based off the theatrical poster for What's Love Got to Do with It? starring Tina Turner
