iTunes Review

You-can’t-stop-rock-and-roll narratives are older than the form itself – think of John Lee Hooker’s “Boogie Chillen.” Tenacious D’s cinematic quest in The Pick of Destiny, however fictitious and knowingly hilarious about the semi-ineptitude of Jack Black and Kyle Gass, does ring true about small-town kids’ insistence on claiming a piece of the music’s magic. Drawing on Rush’s 2112 and Styx’s Kilroy Was Here for thematic cues and everything from Heart to Eddie Vedder for music, the soundtrack album is loving parody — tough to pull off except for true believers like Black and Gass. It also helps that they’re smart enough to hire Meat Loaf to play Black’s religious, anti-rock father, and to realize that the visual joke is only half the appeal: Dude’s vocal cameo on “Kickapoo” is one of Pick’s seemingly out-of-nowhere highlights. School of Rock, indeed.

THE D STRIKES BACK!
     

A long time ago in a galaxy far away, the gods of rock had a massive gathering. This gathering spawned an orb of raw creative rock music talent; these gods or rock sent this orb through space and as luck would have it, this orb fell to earth spreading its insatiable love of power rock through our atmosphere in the form of power rain. This rain has fallen on a selective few, most notably Dio, Page & Plant, and Grohl. However, this magnificent orb's greatest subjects have come together to form a rock trio so powerful that they only needed two men; Kage & Jables, KG & JB, Kyle Gass & Jack Black attack in this awesomely wonderful album. It is simply the greatest album of ALL time. Hands down. Done. Make room for the greatest talent of any generation to ever walk the earth. No collection is complete without this gem; sure to be hailed as the greatest musical achievement in the history of achievements (without hyperbole!)

Awesome Movie and Band
     

Look everybody, these guys aren't exactly AC/DC, but they don't stink either. Just give them a chance and they will blow your mind. Watch the Pick of Destiny.

One of the best soundtracks in a long time
     

This album is amazing. I saw a sneak preview of the movie, so it helps make the music even better. Once you see the movie, the music will be 10 times better. The movie was pretty good, but the music was the highlight so this cd will really rock the shizit out of you.

Biography

Genre: Rock

Years Active: '90s, '00s

Rightfully hailed as "the greatest band on Earth," the super-sized acoustic metal/comedy duo Tenacious D was an unlikely success story. Actually, Tenacious D was probably so successful precisely because they were so unlikely: few people would imagine that two chunky guys bashing on acoustic guitars, singing songs like a tribute to the greatest song in the world (because they forgot how the greatest song in the world went after conquering the Devil with it) became one of the biggest cult bands of...
