Biography

Music journalists have created a category just for Tenacious D: 'mock rock'. This is largely because Black and Gass gently poke fun at the 'cock rock' greats who preceded them, much to the delight of their fans.

Since 1994, when 'the D' first played to an audience, Jack Black (vocals) and Kyle Gass (guitar) have affectionately and energetically parodied the rock bands of their youth, such as Dio,… Read more in Amazon's Tenacious D Store

Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com

Like Spinal Tap, the Rutles, and even the Bonzo Dog Band, Tenacious D manage to send up rock conventions while employing them expertly. The soundtrack to their first full-length motion picture mixes songs and bits from the movie, but it plays like a hilarious concept album more than anything. Dave Grohl and (one half of the) Dust Brothers--who played on the D's delicious 2001 debut--are here joined by Meat Loaf and Ronnie James Dio. The title song navigates power balladry from the late '80s and early '90s in ways most awesome, while also throwing in a bridge that rips on faux-mystical elf-progisms of '70s stadium rock. At times the songs get a bit too meta (e.g. "He who is groovy must be in my movie"), but quibbling about self-referentiality when it comes to a fake band that calls itself "The Greatest Band on Earth" and who sings that their movie is "better than-uh Citizen Kane-uh" is perhaps to not have much of a sense of humor. --Mike McGonigal

4.0 out of 5 stars a sweet SOUNDTRACK, November 16, 2006
Man people are making way too big a deal about this cd not being long enough and a "disappointment." First off, most of the songs will grow more and more on you each time that you listen to them. I think with a few good listens you will begin singing along just as we all did with the first album. Secondly, the CD is a SOUNDTRACK and while you could consider it the D's second album, it's main purpose is still to be a soundtrack. That being said, while some of the songs might not be that good to some of us now, when they are being played in the movie up on the big screen with Jack and Kyle performing those actions in the lyrics of the songs, I would imagine the songs will be pretty awesome. D fans- Don't listen to all the negative nancys, this is a great buy especially now at $9.99.

4.0 out of 5 stars Feels more like an extended soundtrack than an album, November 14, 2006
By Tommy M. (Berkeley) - See all my reviews
It's an excellent opening track, just for hearing Dio alone, but then it's another dozen or so before we encounter something that's longer than three minutes long, and the average length is two minutes. While nothing overstays its welcome, and Black's voice is still great, and the guitar work still graceful... so many of these songs are over before they get a chance to begin.

There's a much wider variety of music on here, like they're spreading their wings, but when it gets brilliant it feels more accidental than inspired. I think "Master Exploder" is genius, but I enjoy it more for its artistic merits than because it rocks or is funny. I think the problem is that this album can't find a groove in between "rock n' roll with a sense of humor" and nearly Zappa-inspired antics.

In the end, with its lack of cohesion, and the brevity of the album and most of the songs, I feel like I got a soundtrack with a couple bonus tracks.

5.0 out of 5 stars Give it a chance, you won't be able to stop listening to it, November 17, 2006
When I put this album in my CD player after getting it, my first impression was that it wasn't as good as the first album. Three and a half days later, I can't stop listening to it! My girlfriend is sick of my singing.

Beelzeboss is the best track on the album by far, with Grohl's drumming and vocals as the devil, and the D absolutely rocking. The appearences of Meatloaf and Dio were definite plusses. It's awesome to hear History on this album.

Hopefully my relationship can withstand this onslaught from the D.
