Tenacious D announce first studio album in six years
It coincides with a North American tour
Last updated 16th May 2018
Tenacious D are returning later this year with their first album since 2012’s ‘Rize of the Fenix’.
Jack Black and Kyle Gass announced their fourth studio record via a crudely drawn cartoon trailer promoting their autumn 2018 North American tour, which includes a set at Foo Fighters’ festival Cal Jam.
The 40-second cartoon features the comedy duo sat on a sofa playing a video games where Jack proclaims: “F***, we gotta pay the rent.”
Kyle responds “Well, I guess we gotta make another album”, to which Jack responds “Dude, that’s gonna take us like five more years…”
We then get a tantalising snippet of music from the album as the words ‘New album 2018…. Probably / New tour 2018… Definitely’ flash on the screen.
Watch the trailer here (WARNING: It's a bit sweary):
Jack Black exclusively revealed that the album is going by the title of ‘Post-Apocalyptico’ in an interview with Kerrang! Radio's Louise Molony last December. Check out the full interview:
Tenacious D last performed in the UK way back in December 2013 on the Old School Acoustic Style tour.
