Tenacious D are back with their first original song in five years, Video Games.
Produced by John Spiker, the banjo-led country-tinged track runs for just over a minute and finds the comedic duo, Jack Black and Kyle Gass, celebrating gaming. They said:
"It’s about growing up and leaving childish things behind…. But then realizing that video games are more than just mindless toys…. In fact, they can be a true expression of huge ideas that belong in the pantheon of great works of art! It’s about time someone defended the honor and integrity of this bold new horizon. Leave it to the greatest band in the world… Tenacious D!!!"
Tenacious D's latest album, 'Post-Apocalypto', was released in 2018. They'll wrap up their brief spring US tour with a show in St. Augustine, Florida tomorrow (May 13). They'll then hit the road for a run of European dates in June, including a stop at The O2 Arena in London.
Black, meanwhile, recently shared the solo single Peaches.
