Tenacious D

it's got a *bit* too much comedy/dialogue in it for me, but i really like it. doesn't get old fast, can listen to it a lot. wish there was a bit more music but it's still darn good.

If you are a fan of Tenacious D, or liked the movie, you need this album.

Yeah, it is side-splittingly funny. But it also rocks like crazy and the songs are well-crafted and tuneful.

Some people have said the spoken-word tracks get old after repeated listenings. Fine, take off all the spoken bits and you still have a solid album's worth of songs. I think the comedy bits only total about 10-12 minutes.

Songs like "Wonderboy" and "Tribute" are literally as good as it gets in rock music. They are classics and hold up well against just about anybody.

Some people complain that numerous songs are very short, clocking in at about one minute or so. Well, I guess those same people have a problem with quite a few Beatles songs - especially on albums like the White Album. Those same people would have to totally denigrate most of the long medley on "Abbey Road". There is nothing wrong with a short song, as long as it is a good short song.

And yes, I do realize I was talking about the Beatles and Tenacious D in the same breath. They deserve it. The D are rock gods and this album is gift to we mere mortals.

tenacious d is the greatest rock band of their genre and this album as a whole is a masterpiece, but after time it loses its appeal and if you take any of the tracks away from the whole they suffer,also not that it matters but because of all the cussing you really cant play anywhere outside the privacy of your own vehicle oe residence but their all minor details,so if you want a good rock band with a ittle comedy and you dont mind foul language than this cd is for you.

I think that this is one of the most awesome bands. Tenacious D Rocks!!! JB and KG are gonna rock your socks off!!
