Tenacious D

[SpaceSpork]

For those who don't know, Tenacious D is a two-man band consisting of Jack Black and Kyle Gass. They first created a show on HBO, and then their own movie, Tenacious D: Pick Of Destiny. Here's a few vids to give you a taste of their work.




So, a penny for your thoughts? Are they geniuses, correctly portraying the spirit of Metal in a parody while making good music, just a few assholes trying to put a few jokes in bad songs, or somewhere in between? Discuss.

I enjoy Tenacious D, along with other comedy-bands like Flight of the Conchords and Physchostick.

And we talk about what exactly?

Tenacious D, obviously.

 

[2wenty6ix]

i think Tenacious D is the most imaginative, and fuckin funny thing out there

 

[Daystar Clarion]

And we talk about what exactly?

 

[S.R.S.]

And your point is?

 

[DuplicateValue]

Okay then. Your point?

Edit: Yay, discussion.

Well, I don't like them. And I don't see how anyone could go as far as to call them genii.

 

[Jamienra]

Tenacious D are amazing, possibly the best band ever.

Can we have some discussion?

 

[Insanum]

lyric musings that amuse me. Love classico though.

 

[Dragon_of_red]

Um, yay, Tenacius D, ummm... wheres the discussion...?

EDIT: Discussion time.

Well, yeah i do like Tenacius D, The only other band that does that i tihnk is Flight Of The Chonchords, who i also love.

 

[Jiggabyte]

They have some really great live performances if you haven't checked them out.

I really don't like them. I don't know why, they just annoy me.

See, part of me is telling me I should hate them. But somehow I don't.

 

[LeonLethality]

...I'm going to say it.

I really don't like them. I don't know why, they just annoy me.

*Is buried under the weight of a thousand contrary opinions*

Tell my...imaginary wife....I potentially loved her....

*Dies*

She be mine now! NARHARHARHAR!

OT: yeah I agree with Furburt I really don't like them either.

 

[SpaceSpork]

Um, yay, Tenacius D, ummm... wheres the discussion...?

Now with new added discussion value!

 

[revjay]

The only discussion I can think of is the one with Gass and Black on when the hell they're going to make a new album or series. Jack Black playing Jack Black in movies and games isn't cutting it, I want to hear Kyle play some tasty licks while Jack sings without having to pull out the complete masterworks dvds.

 

[LongAndShort]

I do enjoy the D that is Tenacious. Gotta love Tribute.

I'm a bigger fan of Flight of the Concords.

 

[RanD00M]

They are great as comedy musicians.But i could hardly see them trying to make anything serious.
