Pick Of Destiny, The [PA] - Tenacious D

Again a smaller review than usual, I couldn't write a lot about each track as some of them are only 22seconds long. ==Who are Tenacious D? == Tenacious D are two actors turned singers, they are Jack Black & Kyle Gass. They formed back in 1994, but it wasn't until 1999 that they started to get noticed, it was in 2001 with their first self titled album that made them big, the track Tribute especially. In 2006 they decided to make a film, which didn't ...
...is the album from this film. ==The Tracks. == Here are the track reviews. ==Track 1: Kickapoo (4.16) 9/10== The first album from this CD by the brilliant Tenacious D is just brilliant. If you are one of those people that doesn't like swear words, then please, please stay away from Tenacious D, especially from reviewing them, because you get what you expect. Swear words, rude lyrics and everything that Tenacious D is about. Jack Black is just amazing, ...

Review of Pick Of Destiny, The [PA] - Tenacious D

...or new-D fans may not pick up initially! A special note goes to the artwork on the cover, which is both hilarious and very artistic indeed. If you're quick you can also pick up a limited edition 3d cover. I am a little dissapointed that it does not contain lyrics for the songs, but I suppose learning the lyrics is all part of the fun with Tenacious D.. Well there you have it! Many will criticise this album as perhaps more of a cash-in for their ...
...the stand alone album we've been waiting 5 years for, but I would disagree. The album oozes rock and fun and above all, a level of quality that shouts a lot louder than the cries of "its too short". Favourite Line: "The demon code prevents me, from declining a rock-off challenge..." Its rock, its pure, and it kicks ass! Long live the D! ...

Review of Pick Of Destiny, The [PA] - Tenacious D

If you loved their first album then you will absolutely love this! Before I bought this album a lot of people told me it was bad, but they were insanlely wrong. This album is makes their first album seem rubbish. THe best track has got to be classico, with jack black doing his own mix of classic songs that most people will recognise. Another great track is 'Beezleboss the final showdown' where as with 'tribute' JB and KG perform a rock-off with ...
...a great heavy metal rock war featuring Dave Grohl as the devil. Its extremely catchy, and will have you lisening to this song on repeat. The only negative thing is that this album is quite short. I also think you would have to have seen the film in order to understand and fully appreciate each song! ...

Review of Pick Of Destiny, The [PA] - Tenacious D

If you want to listen to an album before going out to a party, this will get you rocking and rolling out the door. The songs are funny and full of adrenaline, gusto and hearts of rock. Tenacious D have never taken themselves that seriously and this album doesnt change this attitude, but its fun and will make you laugh before going out. The song which gives the album its title 'pick of destiny' is brilliant as well as 'the government totally sucks' ...
...a party and Jack Blacks songs 'kickapoo' and 'classical' are hilariously random! You don't have to have seen the film which is a great advantage for me because I havent seen it, but I loved school rock of rock! You will be singing along to the song 'History' and smiling afterwards, it is funny and its good to have artists these days who don't take themselves too seriously and just make music for the hell. Awesome Tenacious D! "Kickapoo" (Black, ...

Review of Pick Of Destiny, The [PA] - Tenacious D

This has to be one of my favorite albums of all time. Almost all the tracks are awesome and they are funny too. TD are indeed a great rock band and after seeing the movie, this album was defiantly a good hit. If you havnt seen the movie yet i recommend that too, after all this album is based on it anyway. Dido also makes a special appearance in the movie and sings on the first track of the album, so you have a great rock legend along with 2 of the ...

Review of Pick Of Destiny, The [PA] - Tenacious D

Never have I heard of Comedy Rock before, and when my friend told me about Tenacious D and the style it was in, I laughed him off and said it would be terrible, commenting with skepticism that the two fields had nothing in common, and would be akin to having both jam and marmite on the same slice of toast; luckily, he managed to persuade me to at least listen to it over the weekend. If anybody could combine comedy, rock, swearing and laughter, it ...
...I pressed the play button, I was hooked on the aggressive swearing and powerful vocals of Jack Black, and the improvised feel to the whole album. If you aren't a fan of swearing, I don't recommend it. However, you won't find anything like this anywhere else. This is originality at it's best. Being the soundtrack to the movie, you should watch it. ...

Review of Pick Of Destiny, The [PA] - Tenacious D

This has to be one of the best albums Tenacious d have released, with its orginality and songs its great. the thing that strikes me most about this cd is that I only really ever understood most of the songs after I watched the movie at the cinema. some of the frases threw you off a bit and leave you thinking what do they mean and why?, but after you watch the movie it all becomes alot clearer. Now compared too there first album this one is alot ...
...thing, it doesnt drag on like in the first album when there's confersations befor a song, The song writing is genius and very well put together along with the nice cover this time. I would have too say that if your a tenacious d fan go out and buy this now because its alot more entertaining than the first cd, and I actually think its rocks better. Below are the track listings for your viewing pleasure 1 - Kickapoo 2 -Classico 3 - Baby 4 - Destiny ...
