In a cavalcade of legendary musicians, the 2009 action-adventure game Brutal Legend features a beastly amount of vocal cameos. Although the game's main character Eddie Riggs (named after Iron Maiden mascot Eddie the Head) is voiced by Tenacious D's Jack Black, that's only the beginning of Brutal Legend's killer lineup.
Actor Jack Black and Kyle Gass brought their comedy meets rock band hybrid Tenacious D to the House of Blues at the Mandalay Bay resort in Las Vegas, Nev. over the weekend (July 28). However, it was anything but laughs after a fight broke out in the crowd leaving one concert-goer the victim of a stabbing.
Wow. The only word that can come even close to describing a Tenacious D concert is simply wow.
It takes a certain mindset to survive life on the road, and Tenacious D may have just found the perfect roadie. In the group's latest video, 'The Roadie,' none other than 'Eastbound and Down' star Danny McBride comes to the duo in their hour of need as Sebastian, the seemingly ultimate stage tech.
Jack Black and Kyle Gass aka Tenacious D don hooded capes, play acoustic guitars (one of which morphs into a sword) and shoot lasers outta their eyes in the official video for 'Rize of the Fenix.'
Tenacious D are the best band in the world. No, make that the best band on the planet. Actually, what we meant to say is that they are the best band EVER. All you need to do is ask Kyle Gass and Jack Black, who comprise the D. While many acts that fuse metal and comedy fall flat, Tenacious D keep us on our toes with their power metal compositions and have us busting a gut through and through.
Tenacious D go 'Behind the Music' in this new 6-minute video documenting their legendary return. This epic journey is filled with cameos from Foo Fighters' Dave Grohl, Tim Robbins, Val Kilmer, Jimmy Kimmel and...Josh Groban?
Comedic actor and Tenacious D vocalist Jack Black has responded to Courtney Love's recent comments regarding the use of Nirvana's 'Smells Like Teen Spirit' in the new Muppets movie and he offers his thoughts on the impact of Kurt Cobain's death.
The Fenix will rize in May and so will the D. Tenacious D, the humorous, metal-inspired act lead by actor/comedian Jack Black and his partner-in-crime Kyle Gass, will dust off their picks of destiny in order to release their third album, 'Rize of the Fenix.' The mock rockers plan to release the album in May.
