Advantages: Extremely funny! Disadvantages: A lot of bad language
Tenacious D's self titled album is really one of a kind. The band consists of Jack Black and Kyle Gass, who both do a bit of acting too. Dave Grohl (Nirvana, Foo Fighters, Queens of the Stone Age) also does backing drums. The album has 21 tracks, all of them being hilarious. They are not all even songs, there are a few of the pair talking to eachother about really random things, for example they talk about women, they argue about who ate a schnitzel, ... ...complicated meal on earth. Black and Gass just seem to write songs while talking to eachother, which makes it even more funny - they talk about legalising marijuana, girlfriends, and they argue, it really is funny. The songs mostly have quite heavy guitar and drum parts, and the lyrics are all hilarious. The only down side is that there is rather a lot of swearing, but personally I think this adds to the comedy - the way they use the words. I would ...

Advantages: Probably the funniest band ever Disadvantages: Strong Language
This is one of the most funniest bands around i can't think of any better band. There are some of the most funniest songs you will ever hear on here. To eb fair most fo the album are skits (not actually songs just little acted scenes) but they are just as funny if not funnier than the songs themsleves. I would say the lack of songs though is probably the one bad thing. If you love to laugh this is definatly a must however to be fair your probably ...

For me I was really dissappointed with this album, after hearing "Tribute" I quite liked the music of Tenecious D, the track "Tribute" was different and was a good success, however I feel this album, self titled Tenecious D, is more a comdey gag than a piece of genius music! This album contains far too many interludes, and for me this is a let down, in my opinion I prefer an album with perhaps one or two interludes but mostly music tracks, if I wanted ...

Advantages: a Musical experience of the Greatest band in the World! Disadvantages: -none-
Truly the greatest band in the world. You've probably heard of Tribute, that's such a great song, and the video is cool, but that doesn't even compare to the rest of the album!
There isn't actually a best song of the album - they are all amazing. Especially the hysterical skits in between a few songs. I first discovered The D about 3 years ago, I stumbled across the CD while snooping in my elder brother's room. It didn't take him long to notice ...

Advantages: Truly brilliant Disadvantages: Talking tracks are a little annoying
...leads into the next song.
Tenacious D is a very individual band that dont have anything that i have everheard before.
Jack Black is recently famous for his role in 'The School of Rock' the songs he personally sung in that are just a taster of tenacious D style music.
This is a must buy in my opinion and makes up a huge part of my playlists. ...
