==Song information==
==="Kielbasa"===
[[Kielbasa]] is in fact a real type of sausage, as "[[Kielbasa|kiełbasa]]" is the [[Polish language|Polish]] word for "sausage."

In the track, lead singer [[Jack Black]] sings of his desire for [[anal sex]] ("Your buttcheeks is warm") and his worries that he will not be able to give his woman full sexual satisfaction, sexual satisfaction being a recurring theme in many Tenacious D songs, such as [[Fuck Her Gently]].

:"My Kielbasa Sausage has just got to perform"

The song "Kielbasa" is basically a fusion of two songs, ("Kielbasa Sausage" and "Tenacious D Time") originating from the ''[[Tenacious D (TV series)|Tenacious D]]'' television series and a bridge between the two discussing [[Dianetics]] possibly being of distant relation to the song "Hare Krishna" that Tenacious D perform live,<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.archive.org/details/tend2002-04-10.shnf|title=Tenacious D Live at Promowest Pavilion on 2002-04-10 (April 10, 2002)|accessdate=December 28|accessyear=2006}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.archive.org/details/tend2002-04-12.shnf|title=Tenacious D Live at Aragon Ballroom on 2002-04-12 (April 12, 2002)|accessdate=December 28|accessyear=2006}}</ref> and appears on a demo tape that purports to be by the D. The "Kielbasa Sausage" section of the song is chiefly concerned with sex, whereas the Dianetics section discusses [[International Society for Krishna Consciousness|Hare Krishna]] and cannabis consumption.

:"And you're smoking up a big-ass bowl of weed with me, me and KG"

A possible link between Hare Krishna and cannabis may be that, India (the base of the Hindu sect of Krishna consciousness), is often associated with ancient tribal traditions of large cannabis consumption, which is supported by smoking a "bowl" of weed. Also the [[sitar]], an Indian stringed instrument, that plays when Jack talks about Krishna connotes drug-induced hallucenogenic experiences.

Finally, the song reaches its climax with the "Tenacious D Time" part where Jack declares that it is indeed "Tenacious D time." Jack's need to loudly proclaim it is Tenacious D's time may be a reference to the Tenacious D shows, in which the audiences receive Tenacious D's songs coldly, in that it is almost something said to wake up a "tough" crowd.

"Kielbasa" was never released as a single, perhaps owing to the fact that the contents of the lyrics, in a sanitized format, would take much away from the content of the song.

==="One Note Song"===
One Note Song is a [[Sketch comedy|skit]], and features JB teaching KG how to play "a fucking brilliant song," which only features one [[Musical note|note]] and some [[Glissando|bending]]. KG then criticizes the song, saying that anyone could have written it. He plays his own version which is virtually identical, to which Jack replies "I did, I told you to do the bending every once in a while!" Kyle gives in, and the track ends with Jack shouting, "Woo-hoo, I win, one to nothing," meaning that JB has written one song for the album, which is apparently more than Kyle has managed.

==="Tribute"===
{{Main|Tribute (song)}}

==="Wonderboy"===
{{Main|Wonderboy}}

==="Hard Fucking"===
"Hard Fucking" is another skit, which basically gives a small introduction to the next song, "Fuck Her Gently." It features JB and KG talking to the listener and each other about how women like to be "[[Sexual intercourse|fucked]]".

==="Fuck Her Gently"===
{{Main|Fuck Her Gently}}

==="Explosivo"===
"Explosivo" begins with an ''[[a cappella]]'' section sung by JB, which then builds up into the first verse, featuring lyrics about the actual song ("What's the name of the song? Explosivo! Don't know what it's about, but it's good to go!"), how the band are "fuelled" and "schooled by Satan," as well as being inventors of the "cosmic astral code." Most other lyrics are seemingly random and make little sense to the listener. The song draws to a close with a fast, loud section, with JB acting as some kind of monster, claiming he is known as "The Kicker of Elves," and "The Angel Crusher." A spoken ''Explosivo'' concludes the song. Drummer [[Dave Grohl]] of the [[Foo Fighters]] recorded on this song.

==="Dio"===
The song is a tribute to [[Ronnie James Dio]], [[Jack Black]]'s idol, that calls for the singer to "pass the torch" on to Tenacious D. Reportedly, Dio approved of the song<ref>{{cite news | author=Mark Binelli | title=73% of the Way to Being the World's Greatest Rock Band | work=Rolling Stone | url=http://www.rollingstone.com/news/story/12683958/73_of_the_way_to_being_the_worlds_greatest_rock_band?source=music_news_rssfeed | date=[[2001-11-29]] | accessdate=2007-01-01}}</ref> and let Tenacious D appear in the video for his single, "Push." In addition, Dio also appeared in the 2006 film ''[[Tenacious D in: The Pick of Destiny]]'',<ref>{{cite news | author=Mark Binelli | title=73% of the Way to Being the World's Greatest Rock Band | work=Rolling Stone | url=http://www.rollingstone.com/news/story/12683958/73_of_the_way_to_being_the_worlds_greatest_rock_band?source=music_news_rssfeed | date=[[2001-11-29]] | accessdate=2007-01-01}}</ref> playing himself.

==="Inward Singing"===
Another skit, "Inward Singing" features JB claiming to KG that he has invented "the most powerful tool in singing technology since [[Yodeling|yodelling]]." JB then explains the motive behind his invention, and goes on to sing inwards, with lyrics, before stating that he could "sing like that all fucking night." KG then criticizes JB's invention, angering JB, forcing KG to quit the band.

==="Kyle Quit the Band"===
During the previous track, a skit entitled "Inward Singing", [[Kyle Gass]] announces he is leaving the band, after a tirade of abuse from fellow band member [[Jack Black]]. This is the context for "Kyle Quit the Band."

:"Last week, Kyle quit the band,
:But now we're back together"

The song was originally entitled "Song of Exultant Joy," when it was played in the first ''[[Tenacious D (TV series)|Tenacious D]]'' episode entitled "The Search for Inspirado." In the episode, the premise for Kyle quitting the band is, like the album, verbal abuse from Jack. The episode shows the two, under pressure to write a new song for their next appearance at an [[open mike]] night, becoming stressed leading to Jack shouting at Kyle, and blaming him solely for their lack of success in writing a new song. Jack says, "Let's kick it. I'll say kick it, and you'll just kick it with a tasty groove, okay? 1, 2, 3, kick it. Kick it. God damn it. Could you one time kick it..." This is continued in the song, in a heartfelt reprise.

:"Come on Kyle, one time come on!"

Whereupon Kyle does "kick it" and he performs a solo to end the song on. Jack sings the lyrics:

:"Couldn't split up Kato and Nash.
:Couldn't split up Tango and Cash."

He does this to show, like his partnership with Kyle, it is strong and cannot be broken, like the police partners in the film ''[[Tango & Cash]]''. Kato and Nash is most likely a reference to Nathan Kaatrud, founding member of [[Urge Overkill]], whose nickname is Nash Kato.

==="The Road"===
It talks of the hardship incurred by a band while touring, on 'the road'.

:"The road is fuckin' hard,
:"The road is fuckin' tough"

The song came originally from the television series, during the episode entitled "Road Gig." The song accompanied the band's drive into the desert, as they made their way to the Road Gig, even though they had gone in the wrong direction. The "tasty baby in Michigan" section is reprised later on in the episode during the credits. Like "Kielbasa," "The Road" is a fusion of two songs from the Tenacious D episodes.

==="Cock Pushups"===
"Cock Pushups" is another skit, featuring JB talking to KG about cock pushups, then telling him how to do them. Black claims to have been practicing in order to prepare for "getting all the ladies" when the album comes out.

==="Lee"===
This song is a tribute to Tenacious D's friend Lee. However, in the TV series in the episode "[[Tenacious D (TV series)#Episode 5: The Fan|The Fan]]," it is sung as [[Jack Black]] and [[Kyle Gass]] give the obsessive fan Lee a taste of his own medicine, even going as far, in a dream like sequence, as to stab Lee. The song Lee lasts for 1:02 on the album.

Lee is played by [[Jason Reed|JR Reed]] who also leads Kyle Gass's other band [[Trainwreck (band)|Trainwreck]]. Lee appears live with the D and often [[breakdance]]s{{fact|date=August 2007}} during this song.

==="Friendship Test"===
"Friendship Test" is a skit which leads into the subsequent song, "Friendship." The skit features JB involving KG in a fake friendship test, by telling him he loved him, and seeing what his reply was. KG doesn't tell JB he loves him too, at first, which results in him passing, "barely," with an "F plus."

==="Friendship"===
"Friendship" is one of the softer songs on the album, as it's all about the friendship that Black and Gass share with each other. Although it is on a more conventional subject, lots of comedy is still present, with events such as fighting a bear with a shotgun and chair being included within the tale. The song climaxes with more comedy, with the duo stating that "as long as there's a record deal we'll always be friends."

==="Karate Schnitzel"===
Another skit, "Karate Schnitzel" begins with JB looking the refrigerator for his [[Wiener schnitzel|schnitzel]], before he finds out that KG has stolen it, claiming that it was "fair game for anybody who wants to eat it." JB then performs three karate chops on KG, saying that his actions were also "fair game."

==="Karate"===
This song recounts the consequences of Kyle's theft of Jack's schnitzel. At the end of the track, there is [[Backmasking|backmasked]] speech. This, when played in reverse is quite clearly Jack Black saying "Eat donkey crap."<ref>[http://www.alwaysrecord.com/FAQ.htm Tenacious FAQs<!-- Bot generated title -->]</ref> The song lasts for 1:05.

==="Rock Your Socks"===
The song deals with Tenacious D's desire to prove its classical and rock prowess through giving "a taste" of [[Johann Sebastian Bach|Bach]]'s ''[[Bourrée in E minor]]'' from ''Suite in E minor for Lute'', [[BWV]] 996, also used in another of Tenacious D song - "[[Classico]]." ("That is Bach and it rocks..."), popularized by one of the most famous classical guitarists: [[Andrés Segovia]] and prog rock band, [[Jethro Tull (band)|Jethro Tull]]. The song features a shock comedy climax when lead singer [[Jack Black]] asks for the listener, in return for their troubles in playing to them, to perform a [[coprophilia|coprophilic]] ritual.

==="Drive-Thru"===
This three-minute-long skit features the duo pretending to drive to a fast food [[drive-through]] to order some food. JB requests four [[Chicken McNuggets]], a junior "Western Bacon Cheeseburger" with no onions, a filet of fish sandwich, a drink consisting of half [[Coca-Cola]], half [[Diet Coke]], a small chocolate milkshake, a small portion of seasoned [[Curly fries|curlies]] and [[cherries jubilee]]. This order takes a very long time for JB to make, after which he asks KG what he wants. KG gets straight to the point and orders a regular "Western Bacon Cheeseburger" and a large milkshake, while JB claims that KG "takes forever" to order his food. When they find out they do not have enough money for all of the food they ordered, Jack tells the restaurant employee to "cancel the last two orders," which happen to be Kyle's. The duo then pretend to drive away.

==="Double Team"===
This is a song all about [[sex]]. The lyrics describe how the duo plan to have a [[threesome]] with an unidentified woman. In this song there is more than one reference to using "oils and perfume" and there are also references to "KG with the feather and the [[French tickler]]" and JB states that they "don't mind sucking on toes." The song then speeds up, and finishes with JB making sexual noises, ending in him [[Ejaculation|ejaculating]]. After the song is finished, there is a tiny bit of speech in which JB says "hail Satan" twice, with KG mimicking him.

==="City Hall"===
In the longest song on the album, lead singer [[Jack Black]] paints an anarchic uprising of the political system. The song is described by the D, and others<ref>{{cite news | author=Robin A. Rothman | title=Tenacious D Rock Your Socks | work=Rolling Stone | url=http://www.rollingstone.com/artists/tenaciousd/articles/story/5932580/tenacious_d_rock_your_socks | date=[[2001-09-10]] | accessdate=2006-12-21}}</ref> as a rock opera. The end of the song features a hidden track called "Malibu Nights," the lyrics of which are as follows,

:"Malibu nights, tangerine dreams,
:Malibu needs, Malibu dreams!
:Malibu! Making a poo!
:Stinky poo, looking at you!
:Because it's time for my breakfast, it's time for some cheese!
:It's time for the stink, time for the breeze, time for the ohhhh!"

Untitled

Tenacious D is the self-titled debut album of the comedy rock duo Tenacious D. It was recorded at The Boat in Silver Lake, Los Angeles, California.

History

For their first album, they enlisted the help of drummer Dave Grohl, keyboardist Page McConnell of Phish, guitarist Warren Fitzgerald, and bass player Steven Shane McDonald. The Dust Brothers produced the album. The majority of the songs on their debut album stem from early versions as seen on their HBO TV series, Tenacious D. The record itself does not list the song titles on the back cover as is the convention but instead on the back cover of the jacket; therefore one must open the CD (after presumably buying it) to read them. This is perhaps to allow songs with expletives or words otherwise deemed offensive to escape censorship or omission.

The band's signature song is "Tribute," a homage to the "greatest song in the world," which - according to the duo - was once performed by themselves and has now unfortunately been forgotten. Early versions of the song incorporated guitar riffs borrowed from Led Zeppelin's "Stairway to Heaven," suggesting that the so-called "greatest song" is in fact "Stairway to Heaven," although they do say that the greatest song in the world "doesn't actually sound anything like this song." The duo's film, The Pick of Destiny (released 2006), suggests that the song is in fact a tribute to the melody played against Satan in a rock off, which appeared in the song "Beelzeboss (The Final Showdown)" on their 2006 album, also named The Pick of Destiny.

Their song "Wonderboy" (#34 UK, #48 Australia) and its video were also well-received. "Wonderboy" was a tale of an unlikely superhero, portrayed by Black in the video, as he formed an alliance with a fellow adventurer Young Nasty Man (Gass) and attempted to destroy a fire-breathing hydra. (Note: Wonder Boy is also the name of an unrelated video game series, as well as a 1968 single by The Kinks.)

Their song "Dio" was a tribute of some sorts to the heavy metal singer Ronnie James Dio of the band Dio and one-time singer of Black Sabbath. In the song they ask that Dio stop playing metal music and allow them to fill his shoes. Dio himself liked the song enough that he let the band appear in his next music video "Push."

The third single from the album, "Fuck Her Gently," was released in May 2004. The video was animated by John Kricfalusi, creator of Ren and Stimpy, and features Jack and Kyle as nude cherubs on the shoulders of Satan.

The recording session for the album began with a two-day session at Neil Diamond's studio in Los Angeles. They were able to use the studio because Diamond had just appeared with Black in the film Saving Silverman, in which Black plays a Neil Diamond cover singer. “Diamond claims it was the Liberty Records studio,” King says. “It's a really old place.”[1]

Critical response

Tenacious D's first album featured a variety of reactions from the critics. Entertainment Weekly described the release as being "hilarious," and "no mere comedy record."[2]. All Music Guide said it "rocks so damn hard" but it reflects on the lack of some of the songs from the HBO episodes.[3]. Splendid magazine said of Tenacious D, "As entertainment, Tenacious D succeeds surprisingly well - for the first few listens.... The only long-term replay value you'll get from this record will come from playing it for friends who haven't heard it."[4]

Miscellanea

Wikiquote has quotations related to Tenacious D (album).
  • The song Dio is a tribute to Ronnie James Dio, Jack Black's idol, that calls for the singer to "pass the torch" on to Tenacious D. Reportedly, Dio approved of the song[5] and let Tenacious D appear in the video for his single, "Push." In addition, Dio also appeared in the 2006 film Tenacious D in: The Pick of Destiny,[6] playing himself.
  • The cover is a reference to the Tarot card The Devil.

Those dudes are all about money and brainwashing. I can't speak for Rage but I believe that God is an unfathomable force of love and cosmic sadness."
  • At least one song was cut from the final release of the album. A studio recording of "Jesus Ranch," the final song from the HBO shorts (the closing credits feature the end of "The Road"), was omitted from the album because "it just didn't cut the mustard" (quoted by the D in the FAQ section of their website). The HBO version can be found on their DVD, The Complete Masterworks, and a recorded studio demo can be found on their 2002 EP, D Fun Pak.
