Ah yes. The ultraswearing, sexjoking, SNL & Movie-starring Tenacious D! They are just the best band in the world. I wanna know what you think of them, what your favorite song is!
Tenacious D is a satirical rock band formed in Los Angeles, California. The band consists of musicians and actors Jack Black (lead vocals, guitar) and Kyle Gass (lead guitar, vocals).
Tenacious D formed in 1994 when the members performed as an acoustic duo. The band first gained popularity in 1999 when they starred in their eponymous television series and began to support large rock acts.[1] In 2001, they released Tenacious D, their debut album featuring a full band. The first single, "Tribute", was the band's most successful achieving their only Top 10 in any chart. In 2006, they starred in, and recorded the soundtrack for, Tenacious D in The Pick of Destiny. In support of the film, the band went on a world tour, appearing for the first time with a full band.
Tenacious D's music showcases Black's theatrical vocal delivery and Gass' acoustic guitar playing abilities.[2] Critics have described their fusion of vulgar absurdist comedy with rock music as "mock rock".[1][3] Their songs discuss the duo's purported musical and sexual prowess, as well as their friendship and cannabis usage in a style that music critics have compared with the storyteller-style lyrics of rock opera.[4][5]

FUck yeah, Tenacious D.

Know what would be more "mega-epic"?
If you actually played the song on an instrument of some kind.
That song is really fun to play on guitar. Most Tenacious D songs are.
Master Exploder is hard, I can't get the rhythm right.
:<
Try listening to the song a couple of times and then playing it.
I can play most of Wonderboy :D
and I absolutely love Tenacious D!!!
Look into my eyes and it's easy to see there's no better movie then the pick of destiney
That worked ok
anyway, Tenacious D don't make any serious songs and that's what's great about them
I like their first album too. You just kind of picked songs from the movie. They're all good songs, but you should listen to the first album to experience [I]the full D.[/I]
[I]bleahhhh[/I]
I know this band for a long time and they are awesome! also watched the movie a couple of times... it's hilarious!
:siren:spoiler warning:siren:

In case no one knows, Dave Grohl plays the devil in that movie!!! And in the old Tribute video. He's a good friend of theirs.
He does the devil's voice in [I]Beelzeboss[/I] too.
Yeah... That's kinda what I was gettin' at.
He also does the drum solo, and guitar solo.

HOPEFULLY
I like them, but it's kind of hard to consider a comedy band "the best".
I love the fucking D!

I wouldn't say best, but one of my top favourite bands.
[b]Edit:[/b]
Master Exploder is epic.
Wonderboy is a great song.
Haven't listened to them much recently
Simply one of the worst bands I've ever seen. It's just one of those bands I have no clue in the world how people like it. I hate Jack Black, and I hate Kyle Gass. I probably hate people that listen to this too.
My favorite song of Tenacious D has to be "The Metal". Best song EVER made!!!
