Tenacious D is the self titled debut album of the comedy rock duo Tenacious D (obviously). It was released in 2001 and has 21 tracks. It comes after the two had done opening acts for bands and a short lived HBO show. It is most well known for the song Tribute, their most iconic song to date. Around half of the album is dedicated to skits in between the songs, which would be followed up by the next track. They don't take away from the album but some like Drive-Thru go on for too long.
There is no clean version of the album unlike the second and third albums.
Go buy this album. Even if you don't like it in the end, you'll find you are thankful for something. Maybe you won't know what but that doesn't really matter. This is a rocking CD, and as TENACIOUS D says,It doesn't matter if it's good. It only matters if it rocks.
They sing songs about groupies and having sex androcking your socks off,but they're really just two guys playing acoustic guitar in a bar. Did they lose that with this album? A little bit, yeah - but it's still a great listen. It's fun, in that George Carlin type way, and it's good music, but it's not as ironic as the stage shows were.
The comedy may be immature at times and a few songs are weak, but if your looking for some good tunes to listen to or something to make you laugh, this is for you. 4/5
