Summary: For those who truly love Jack & Kyle
Review: Tenacious D are undoubtedly one of the MOST offensive bands ever. I only say this after having watched the DVD, and the short films. I have to say, I gagged more than once. ;) But this DVD is worth it for those who truly love Tenacious D and can stomach them at their lowest humor. Seeing the HBO show was fabulous as I'd never seen it previously. This is a definate must for psycho fans such as myself.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: One of the finest Artist Collection DVD's to ever come out.
Review: For the Fans the D have served up an amazing concert experience. For peeps such as myself who never had the honor to witness the amazing-ness of Jack and Kyle, live on stage. It has the episodes of the HBO show, which again, I never got to see. This is the ultimate D experience.

For the psycho fans the D have squeezed out an amazing collection of all their tv appearances, videos, and live performances. If that wasn't enough you get behind the scene footage, and a documentary of the D on tour.

The D have stayed true to their fans and provided the ultimate companion to there debut/only acclaimed album. You'll be amazed, grossed out, and laughing your rear off at there off/on screen antics. Thanks to the D for this great gift.

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: The Best DVD Ever Recorded!
Review: I just received my copy of this item in today's mail, and spent the rest of the day huddled in the corner of my office secretly watching! I had never seen the HBO episodes, and they were great. Although there may be no true substitute to seeing a concept develop from sketch comedy to touring band in its natural evolutionary pace, having the material all laid out for you on these discs is the next best thing!

Now that this is out, time for the D to go back in the studio and lay down some new material! Oh, and don't forget Florida next time you tour! ROCK ON KG AND JB!!!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Rock On Hard!

Summary: A band so metal they are charted on the table of elements...
Review: As far as I'm concerned, the lavish invention of Tenacious D that sprung from the fiendishly clever minds of Jack Black and Kyle Gass opened the golden-tinged JRR Tolkien-style doors to a new musical genre- the art of true musical comedy- as they peeked their rotund heads from behind their lair's cozy confines, hung some plastic devil horns around the structure's phallic-shaped door knocker and promptly sealed their compound to all others who dare to take up the band's challenge of crumbling these very sacred walls with their own style of beezlebub-sanctioned music.
Sure, Monty Python wrote some tunes that were catchy as well as kitschy ("I Like Chinese" being my favorite) and Spinal Tap sarcastically rocked out with thier anarchy signs jutted firmly into the smokey pyrotechnic air, but one could always detect the faint taste of coldness and disdain the actors had for their subjects. Tenacious D (named after a random phrase Marv Albert screamed out in response to an excellent defensive basketball manuever) deeply understand how bands like Dio have tried to unmetal a nation of devil rock neophytes with their embarrasingly earnest medieval exploits, yet the D also get entangled in the fantasy along with the inherent hilarity. Jack Black wants to launch himself out of a catapult alongside Ronnie James Dio just as much as he would like to slay him through the gullet, Ladyhawke-style.
And so the 6 fifteen-minute episodes of the D's adventures have finally been etched into the digital realm for all eternity. Each follows the self-proclaimed "Greatest Band on Earth" from an open-mic night performance that elicits sarcastic clapping from the six or seven bar attendees, to an amazing conclusion that either teaches us a valuable life lesson in full-on "Full House" fashion or that a Sasquatch is a really crappy band addition. The acoustic performances are incredible and deliciously clever, all the while sounding even more rebellious than the expensive and excellently produced studio album. Just how cheap were these shows to make? To put it in laymen's terms, the shows cost roughly as much as the three pounds of caviar the producers of Adam Sandler's movies are contractably obligated to cram up his ass before each of his "Steel-mohawk-to-the-scrotomtastic" comedic performances, with the D's shorts being approximately 816 times more satisfying. Jack Black and Kyle Gass blend their real-life friendship into the mix so well with their respectively domineering and lighthearted characters that it's almost impossible to tell where reality and entertainment diverge (except for the above-mentioned Sasquatch encounter...maybe). Think of the show as a "Curb Your Enthusiasm" for the Slayer set and you're an eighteenth of the way there. Between episodes, madcap sketches updating the Abbott and Costello comedic style only sweeten this overflowing jar of honey. Tenacious D's videos are equally amusing, from the rootin-tootin "Devil Went Down to Georgia"-inspired "Tribute" (is that Dave Grohl as the devil I see?) to the internet-only "F--k Her Gently", which answers the question "I wonder if Rage and Cage like watching Ren & Stimpy on acid?"
Not having seen the DVD live performances yet, I can only assume they are as entertaining as the three live shows I have seen with my own peepers, each one upping the last in sass-mouthedness and general tomfoolery. It's been a blast watching "#1 D fan" Lee go from blushing band roadie to the rock-star, groupie devouring attitude of the album tour. Between songs, JB and KG always engage the crowd with tidbits of D mythology along with genuinely heart-felt fan appreciation. Pre-taped sketches are played in between the live action, and believe me when I say they are worth their weight in pirate's booty for their glimpses into raw, adults-only "D on D" action. Expect them to use the DVD medium to its full impact for these segments and the plentiful bonus materials.
All of this serves as a warm-up for the true Tenacious D event occuring late next year, the full length feature film from everybody's favorite passive-aggressive hetero life partners. Called "Tenacious D in: The Pick of Destiny" and directed by Liam Lynch of cult favorite "Sifl and Olly" fame, the movie will chronicle the D from childhood on, finally giving fans the real scoop on how this Band of Bands became the greatest one of them all. Rumored guest stars include Meat Loaf and Rob Zombie, with these names surely being the mere tip of the metal sword. So prepare for the upcoming metal apocolypse by stocking up on this delightful dish of D on DVD, and finally determine what kind of fan you truly are: is Tenacious D incredibly hilarious with decent music ability, or are they incredible musicians with a knack for comedy? The corret answer is: yes!
