Tenacious D, Danny McBride Join Forces For Epic, Awesome Video (NSFW)

-
Tenacious D's new album may not be quite up to snuff with their classic debut, but it does have at least three things going for it:

a) Dave Grohl provides all of the drum tracks for the album, and in case you haven't gleaned it from every record he's ever drummed on, the man is a monster.

b) They've somehow managed to fool the censors by putting a giant penis on their album cover.

c) Jack Black's time in Hollywood has earned him some famous friends, and he's called in favours for The D's videos of late.  The new one for Roadie is seven minutes of pure gold, thanks in no small part to the always entertaining Danny McBride.



Rize of the Penis Fenix is out now via Columbia.

There's a telling lyrical passage that stuck out to me upon listening to Newfoundland-based indie stalwarts Hey Rosetta's third full-length LP. During the uplifting, depression-battling anthem Cathedral Bells , singer Tim Baker exclaims, "the road is lit and I'm going home".

Long before we get to that point, however, we're treated to some of the band's most interesting material to date. The album starts with current single Soft Offering (for the Oft Suff...

As it turns out, something I said on this blog earlier this year had a little more resonance than I anticipated. From my January 15th article " What Are The Chances? ", where I gave a percentage chance for certain artists releasing a new album in 2013: 1% NINE INCH NAILS We know that Trent Reznor is gearing up to release How To Destroy Angels' debut. We also know that there's an Interscope-released Nine Inch Nails greatest hits collection being targeted for 2014, for which Reznor promises two new Nine Inch Nails songs. But, we also know Reznor likes to fuck with his fans and absolutely loved fucking with Interscope. What better way to do that than to bring out a brand new Nine Inch Nails record? What better way indeed? Surprise: A new #NIN album is finished, coming later this year on @ columbiarecords : tmblr.co/ZW-7vsm2kw_u #NIN2013 — Nine Inch Nails (@nineinchnails) May 28, 2013 Bravo, Mr. Reznor. I love it when a plan comes together. More on...
