They've been teasing us and now it's official: Tenacious D will release their new album, Post-Apocalypto on November 2, 2918.
Once again, the band will be joined by the legendary Dave Grohl who will provide drums for all the tracks on the album. Grohl has performed on all of the band's major releases and starred as The Devil in The Pick of Destiny.
To hype up the release, Tenacious D will be releasing a new eight part weekly Youtube series also titled Post-Apocalypto:
True to the title, Post-Apocalypto finds Tenacious D thrust into a world of complete and utter destruction following the drop of an atomic bomb. Surviving the attack in classic cinematic fashion (a good old imperishable 1950's refrigerator), the duo quickly learns that new forms of evil have spawned from the blast. One thing becomes apparent — for humanity to prevail, Tenacious D must save the world.
With unimaginable twists and turns, an insane visit to the White House, a time machine, a space adventure, and the help of some tried and true daddy issues, Post-Apocalypto is as hilarious as it is political, and as brilliant and multi-faceted as its incredible creators. The songs are damn good, too.
Here's a teaser for the series:
Oh, so you want album art?
