Brendon Small's Galaktikon II: Become the Storm is the upcoming second solo album by Brendon Small, known for his work on the animated television shows Metalocalypse and Home Movies, and as creator of virtual death metal band Dethklok. The album is due for release on August 25, 2017 through Megaforce Records. The album features Dethklok members Gene Hoglan and Bryan Beller, on drums and bass, respectively. Since Brendon Small no longer holds the rights to the Dethklok name, Gene Hoglan has suggested that this album would serve as a "new Dethklok album".

In May 2016 it was revealed that the follow-up to Brendon Small's 2012 solo album was in production. As of December 2016, the album has been recorded and is currently being mixed.

When describing his influences for the album, Small stated he wanted to draw upon themes by prominent science fiction authors.

The musicians on this album are the same as the members of Dethklok. Brendon Small had stated that Adult Swim has restricted his ability to use the Dethklok name in his music endeavors, as a result of this, the album is thought to be workaround to the licensing issue. Gene Hoglan said in an interview that "it’s a Dethklok album it just can’t be called Dethklok cause of rights. I will say this if you love Dethklok, you will love this record.The lyrics, the music and everything is Dethklok styled". It has been suggested that the band may now release the album under the name "Galaktikon".
