Tenacious D - The Pick of Destiny

[Spruce Goose]

Just got this new album. It's pretty fuckin rockin, although quite short.
But it is alot heavier than the debut. More Metal sounding.
Has Dio on the opening track and Dave Grohl sings on the final showdown which is a rockin tune. Mr Loaf is on there somewhere too but didn't spot where on first listen at work.

 

[Celestial-Todd]

If it's like the movie, he'd be in the opening tracks

 

[Spiff]

Yeah, he plays Jack's dad.

I bought the album a couple of weeks ago (the box set with the authentic pick of destiny and 8 tarot cards). It is very short, but has some great, great songs. I particularly like Baby, Dude (I Totally Miss You), POD and The Metal.

 

[Winmar]

How short is it? Slayer short? Sounds interesting!

 

[Spruce Goose]

(Dude) I totally Miss You is one of my new favorites as well.
I am seeing the almighty D tomorrow night in Sydney.

I have Muse and Roger Waters next week... 2 Artists that I absolutely love, but I am probably more excited for the D

 

[Southy]

Saw the movie, it is pretty shit IMO

I saw Tenacious D at the Hammersmith Apollo in December. Freakin' awesome show!

 

[Spruce Goose]

It's tonight.
Can't wait.
Man, I am pumped!
If/When they play Explosivo, I will splurge

'Climb up on my faithful steed'

 

[Spiff]

Helps if you know nothing about the show, because it was soooo much better than I thought it would be.

 

[Spruce Goose]

Yeah... I know a little bit about the show already.
And I know all the songs... which is helpful.

 

[Keeper of the Seven Cheese]

I absolutely loved the movie. I am gonna go check it out when it comes out at the Cinemas too.

 

[Winmar]

Isn't the Hammersmith Apollo closing? Or perhaps I'm thinking of another venue, like the Astoria.....?

 

[Spiff]

That's a different Hammersmith. Hammersmith Palace or something? I read it on Blabbermouth the other day.

Definitely not the Apollo.
