luke-o 0 Report post Posted November 16, 2006 I just got it today, picked up in my local store for 10 quid. Its ok, the thing that dissapoints me is that it doesnt blow me away like the first album did. Its almost a bit meh. Some tracks are good, but some tracks are a bit pants. It may just need a few more listens. But, it does feature Ronnie James Dio on the first track, so that gives it a an extra star. Tenacious D - Pick Of Destiny ***1/2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Black Lushus 0 Report post Posted November 16, 2006 does it have skits? I found those to be funnier than the songs and I usually hate skits on music albums... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Felonies! Report post Posted November 17, 2006 I thought Jack Black had moved beyond the whole Tenacious D thing. Hasn't he been a boorish goof in like six or seven different roles since the last time anyone really talked about Tenacious D? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sideburnious 0 Report post Posted November 17, 2006 Unfortunatly yes. I like Jack Black as an actor (see: king kong, shit, even Saving Silverman) but I grew out of that Tenacious D crap once everyone around me from 13-16 was going on about how "Fuck her Gently" is a masterpiece and hilarious.

tominator89 0 Report post Posted November 26, 2006 I'm definitely glad that I waited until after seeing the movie to listen to the soundtrack. The stories make much more sense...too bad the movie itself was disappointing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
