Product Description
Amazon.co.uk Review
Biting, sometimes-base satire and humour populate this 21-track comedy-rock debut from actor-musician Jack Black and his band, Tenacious D. Sort of like a trashier, more casual and less musical Beck, vocalist-guitarist Black and guitarist-vocalist Kyle Gass--with help from Foo Fighter Dave Grohl, Redd Kross's Steve McDonald and Page McConnell of Phish--deliver oddball musings that will appeal mostly to fans of the talented Black, who has earned a following thanks to frenetic turns in the films High Fidelity and Jesus' Son. The songs and "bits" include the wonderfully, intentionally melodramatic "Wonderboy", Black ordering "four Chicken McNuggets" on "Drive Thru" and the funny ode to metaller Ronnie James Dio, where Black observes, "Dio has rocked for a very long time / Now it's time for him to pass the torch." With often intentionally droll and dumb humour, this more-comedy-than-rock debut is likely to achieve cult status. --Katherine Turman

This is just a tribute,
By
This review is from: Tenacious D (Audio CD)
This album is not for the faint of heart. For many, the comedy will be a touch too crass and lewd; but for the rest of us this offering from Jack Black and Kyle Gass should be placed high upon a pedestal and saluted. Comedy albums are dangerous. Often the band is a one-hit-wonder and then sinks without a trace. Not so with Tenacious D, mainly because they actually ROCK!!!! Finally an album that is genuinely funny and fulfils its promise to 'rock your socks off'. Who on this earth could not fail to be swayed by the gem that is 'Tribute', weep as Black tells how 'Kyle Quit The Band' or chuckle at 'Drive-Thru'. But this album is also educational....I can now inwardly sing, kick ass with karate and do a pushup with my...yes, well. In short, if, like me, you are a fan of silly humour, want to rock hard or simply need a pep-up in your otherwise bland cd collection then go out and immediately buy this cd.....hell, whoever you are go out and buy it! Spread the word of the D, purge the unbelievers and listen to this kick-ass record. Get it in...NOW!

Great comedy stylings from one of the best acts out there,
By
This review is from: Tenacious D (Audio CD)
Tenacious D is one of the best albums I have heard in ages. Those people who are usually worried about listening before they buy should not worry, if you like the singles tribute and wonderboy, then you should definately buy the album. The album comprises of 21 short but sweet tracks, all of which provide a refreshingly funny and eclectic taste in rock. From the acoustic, almost soothing picking of 'F**k her Gently' up to the speed, hard rocking 'Explosivo'. The skits between the tracks are excellent, and I never tire of them, KG's "I believe in Gawd" skit at the end of the album actually gets funnier every time I hear it. There is one criticism, which doesnt really affect me, or most of you, but, if you dont appreciate the Mother F and F**king useage in every other line, then this might not be your cup of tea, its a shame, I know, your parents might not like it.GET THIS ALBUM!!!!!!

consider the rest of the world...,
This review is from: Tenacious D (Audio CD)
the main criticism of this album so far has been the talking parts.... so what? Tenacious D are comedians, not 'pure' musicians... and these scenes do not generally get boring! I love them.... over and over again, especially the Mc***...'s one. It's good fun, unless you are too serious about music, otherwise, if you enjoy a bit of humour thrown in, absolutely recomended! :). Light harted, sometimes slightly primitive (keep your children away!; but that americ**** are.... watch the news!..). simply: special!
