When I first heard Jack Black and Kyle Gass going at it with guitars, I honestly laughed harder then I had in a long time. Usually, this would be a bad thing. In this case, I think they've done what they were trying to go for.

To start out, we have 21 tracks on the album in total. There is a mix of short skits and full length to shorter songs in equal measure.

The skits are usually very funny. Black and Gass make very stupid humor seem so much better than in it's raw form. They are short but sweet little skits.

The music is absolutely phenomenal. Although there are some unnecessary or vulgar tracks on it, most of them are generally enjoyable. Their beat and composition shows the work of great musicians, while still making it comedic and stupid. Their skills really show with their extraordinary intrumentship make this not some petty comedy album.

This is definitely a good album to pick up by anyone to have a good laugh.

I know I'm a humourless snob, but boy, I have such difficulty with things like this. I couldn't actually own this. I try to be open minded, but...its hard.

Yeah, Jonas, Beelzeboss is from Pick Of Destiny. It's easy to get them confused sometimes though. :P

They're definitely a pair of funny guys who've made some entertaining songs but this isn't an album I ever stick on to play from start to finish. I loved their film though even though most seem to say it sucked.

They are pretty silly but they are pretty damn funny too. I´m a bit biased but as soon as "Beelzeboss" kicks in (I don´t think it´s from this album) I´m completely sold.
