Tenacious D always walked that fine line between a being a spoof band vs actually writing some decent classic stadium rock
The problem with the band is that they don’t take themselves seriously at all, so why should anyone else? I mean who ever heard of someone actually buying a Tenacious D album?
Sure, “Tribute†is probably kicking around on your playlist from the early 2000s along with “Wonderboy†and “Fuck Her Gently†but that’s about as far as it goes which isn’t very far for a band that has two (dick-joke laden) albums out.
