Tenacious D - Pick of Destiny - CD Review: Long live the D - If you have never heard Tenacious D before. I'd Recommend the last album before you get this if possible. It's like an Epic journey through the kingdom of rock that should be taken in stages. Step one: Go get the first album. Have your freckin socks rocked off. Step 2: Go get this album! Then have your freakin socks rocked off all over again! In all honestly this album is not quite as good as their last Album. But that was never going to happen. Perfection cannot be beaten. This is a soundtrack though and is not going to be the same as the last album. The album is short but not where you feel hard done by. And it does not have JB and KG joking about and eating each other's schnitzels or no visits to the drive through Etc. I think it's a shame. How ever many years later I still laugh out loud when I here the sketches. In a way it loses a bit of intimacy with the band from the first album, because you're not feeling as if you've got front row seats to them joking about together. This album is full of laughs still however. Maybe the funniest song of all time, Track 11, "Beelzeboss" is a must listen. Where Dave Ghrol (Satan) and Tenacious D have a rock-off to decide if Kyle is to become Satan's sex slave or if Satan must return to hell. Pure genius! Those who do not know Tenacious D and are offended by swearing. Do not listen to this album. I think most people will get the humour though and not be offended at all. It's rock and roll though. It's designed to be offensive :-D All you need to know is. It's an amazing album. The only fault is its length. However you get enough rock and laughs to keep you more than happy. You will listen to it over and over and like the last album you will pick up new things with every listen. 5/5 Pure class!!! Review: The Greatest Album In The World? - I really enjoyed the first album by tenacious D, it is a very unique album, full of rock, swearing and comedy. What more do we need you ask.... Well, this is it! It gives us The Greatest Song In The World!! Now we can fully understand Tribute!!! I searched for this album in all my local shops with no success, I look on desertcart and behold....it is here and at a very cheap price. My day was made, I ordered it right away and waited for it to come. It arrived four days later, the case was slightly cracked but this is sometimes going to happen with postal goods, I would buy from this supplier again. Very good value and not too long to wait for delivery. If you enjoyed the POD film, you must get this album.

THE GREATEST ALBUM KNOWN TO MANKIND
This album is a must have for any tenacious D fan ... wait, anybody who has a sense of humour and likes music. This is a masterpeice from Rage-Kage and Jables. Start to finish nothing can be criticised. It was ordered very quickly and was in perfect condition, apart from the protective plastic cover, which was cracked. But otherwise great, great , GREAT!

Amazing album, The D are still alive!
First of all I'd like to say that this is a great album, its definatley worth buying if you enjoyed their first album. I was impressed by this album, better than I expected it to be, obviously it would be almost impossible to come up with something as good as their first album, but this comes close. One of my favourite songs was Beezleboss, this is when they have a rock off with the devil, its really good stuff and funny! Theres lots of varied music in here for everyone. This album however is a bit heavier and uses more electronic instruments and drums than the first album, which is a shame really - I like their live acoustic type of music, which sounds a bit more spontaneous. Where the first album went with the TV series they created which had a loose story to it, this album was released to go with their film. This new album doesent contain as many songs that I'll enjoy singing along to as the first album I don't think. If you are a true D fan then you'll buy this! If you aren't sure, then possibly give it a go or I would suggest you try their original album first if you don't already own it. (Additional information: The Deluxe edition contains a 3D cover, a plastic "pick of destiny", 8 tarrot cards and it comes it a small case in the shape of a book.)

Eines der besten Werke an dem JB beteiligt war, sowohl der Film wie auch die Musik

Very good music, but quite a bit of foul language included. Some of their situations are real time hilarious, with Jack Black, I had no idea he was such a great vocal (musical) entertainer. He has a commanding presence as on a grand scale, his soul bursting with vibration! Bravo! The cuteness of his lil sasquatchian costume is adorable, hip-hip to The Pick of Destiny/Soundtrack!

俳優として活動するJack BlackとKyle Gassが参加していた劇団で出会い、意気投合して始めたというデュオ、TENACIOUS Dの2ndアルバム。 2ndアルバムと言っても本作はメンバー二人が主演した同名の映画のサウンドトラックでもあり、劇中で歌われた数々の楽曲が収録されている。 本作はアコースティックギターを中心に(もちろんエレキギターも使ってます)IRON MADENやJUDAS PRIEST等に影響されたHR/HMな楽曲を無駄に高い歌唱力とおバカな歌詞で彩るロックオペラ的な仕上がりになっており、俳優同士が始めたバンドにしては意外にけっこう高いクオリティを備えている。 また参加したゲストがやたら豪華で1曲目ではMeat Loafと故Ronnie James Dioが入れ替わりで歌うし、本作のドラムを担当しているのがDave Grohlだというから驚き!Dave友達多すぎ・・・。13曲目では悪魔の歌声も披露する(笑) 当然ながら映画の流れに沿って進むので観た上で聴く方がより楽しめるのはもちろんなのだが、楽曲の出来が良いのでこちらから入ってもコンセプトアルバムとしてけっこう楽しめるかもしれない。SCHOOL OF ROCKでのJackのキレとカッコ良さとダメさ加減が癖になった方はきっとこちらも気に入るはずだ。ぜひともライブが観てみたい!
