They brought in Dave Grohl (drums) of Foo Fighters, Warren Fitzgerald (guitar) of Oingo Boingo, and Page McConnell (keyboard) of Phish to record their self-titled debut album in 2001, which was certified multi-platinum and gold.

Tenacious D continued their success with the 2006 album “The Pick of Destiny,” likewise certified gold and platinum, and included appearances by Meat Loaf and the late Ronnie James Dio. This was also a film released at the same time which told the story of two slacker rockers on a quest to obtain a legendary guitar pick. Thanks to Jack Black’s prolific acting and comedy career, Tenacious D is a continuing staple that gets revived to tremendous popularity in between other projects.
