A to Z Challenge: T is for Tenacious D

Band:  Tenacious D
Genre:  Comedy Rock, Hard Rock
Language:  Strong

I'll admit the main reason this song is here is because the song I wanted to post didn't actually have a music video.

It's still a cool thing though, because Tenacious D is a reasonably funny band, ya know?  The video below is hilarious since the band has basically been out of the spotlight since their movie came out like, 10 years ago.

Honestly outside of Guitar Hero III I hardly even remembered they existed.  This is a new video though, so apparently they are trying break back into the spotlight, right?

Hey though, if they want to try that that's fine with me.  I consider this band to be one of the better things Jack Black has done with his career honestly.  His comedy isn't really something I'm that in to, and even though the music really follows the same comedic line I kinda like it more.

Tomorrow's post will be what I wanted today but couldn't.

Cover Week: Tenacious D - The Last In Line

 

You know what's great about Jack Black?  He is a parody of himself.  Think about it, his acting is over the top, the roles he plays cater to this, and if you just listen to him sing you realize that there is nothing "serious" about what he's doing.

This entire tribute album is reasonably good, so if you have the time I'd recommend listening through the whole thing.  The Judas Priest cover and the cover with Corey Taylor are really good.

I really am not too familiar with a lot of Dio's own music, just some of the stuff he did with Sabbath.  Still though, if you're a fan then this album is good.
