Biting, sometimes base satire and humor populates this 21-cut comedy-rock debut from actor-musician Jack Black and his band, Tenacious D. Sort of like a trashier, more casual and less musical Beck, vocalist-guitarist Black and guitarist-vocalist Kyle Gass, with help from Foo Fighter Dave Grohl, Redd Kross's Steve McDonald, and Page McConnell of Phish, deliver oddball musings that will appeal mostly to fans of the talented Black, whose earned a following thanks to memorable, frenetic turns in the films Hi Fidelity and Jesus' Son. The songs and "bits" include the wonderfully, intentionally melodramatic "Wonderboy," Black ordering "four Chicken McNuggets" on "Drive Thru," and the funny ode to vocalist Ronnie James Dio, where Black observes, "Dio has rocked for a very long time / Now it's time for him to pass the torch." With often intentionally droll and dumb humor smartly executed like a latter-day version of Bob & Doug McKenzie with a dash of Spinal Tap, this more-comedy-than-rock debut is likely to achieve cult status. --Katherine Turman

2 1/2
TD's debut might be the only bit of Yankovician music I can appreciate, but even with a few songs that completely outshine their comedic confines, the album becomes a chore to sit through by the time it has finished.
 A Great Musical Paradox January 12, 2010
Cerebellum
JB and KG have outdone themselves with this album. The album creates a great musical paradox, and that is what I like about it. The lyrics, are some of the most pointless, stupid, and funny lyrics you will ever hear. The music though, is actually rather deep and powerful. These two factors combine to make a very unique listening experience. The humor tracks that are thrown in, like Inward Singing and the Drive Through, are hilarious additions that will not disappoint you. The parental advisory sticker does not lie. Just about every track has vulgar language throughout, but I do not mind the language that bad, and I feel that it actually adds to the fun of the lyrics.
If you have not checked out Tenacious D yet, I highly recomend that you do. Great music and ridiculous lyrics combine to create a truly unique musical experience.

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.
