Kyle Gass. Jack Black. Tenacious D, known to many fans as 'The D' will 'rock your socks off' from one end of this album to the other. Its a non-stop rock fest with a generous helping of comedy thrown in for listening pleasure. You'll always remember the first time you listen to this album. You'll think 'hmmm rock can be entertaining as well damn god to listen to'.
With the awesome Jack Black on lead vocals, the guitar shredding Kyle Gass on lead guitar and some guest drumming by the one and only Dave Grohl you know Tenacious D won't dissapoint. Jack Blacks vocal range is amazing, he seems to push his comical wit through these songs and will have you chuckling all day whilst you try and recall word for word 'Fuck Her Gently' and 'Cock Pushups'.
Kyle Gass delivers some amazing solos and guitar riffs that will make you pick up your long neglected tennis racket and strum until climax. :D Ive seen this man live and boy does he get the most from his acoustic, some of the stuff he delivers will make you rub your eyes, ears and quite possibly something else on your body. Its that good.
But its not all comedy. There is a more serious underlying meaning to a lot of the songs. 'The Road' explains the hardships of being a rocker, never settling down etc moving from girl to girl (now i know what a lot of you guys are thinking....) to the rather political 'City Hall' where the D go about trying to change the world.
In conclusion this album will rock your soul to the core and have you worshipping Satan like he never excisted. Its a great debut album that has definately stood the test of time and im sure will be played in years to come.
