Tenacious D is an American rock band composed of musician/actors Kyle Gass (a.k.a. "KG", "Kage","Rage Kage") and Jack Black (a.k.a. "JB", "Jables"). Their style fuses rock with other musical styles such as folk metal, comedy rock, and stoner rock. They are known for their upbeat classic rock style and vulgar comedy. The band first gained popularity in 1999 when they starred in the epononymously titled Tenacious D TV series, in which JB and Kage tried to establish themselves as "The D" and the "Greatest Band on Earth." The series is occasionally aired on Comedy Central and is available on The Complete Masterworks. The storyteller-style lyrics of the songs can be compared to lyrics of Rock Opera and Power Metal bands, like Meat Loaf, The Who, Queen, Dio, Black Sabbath, and Alice Cooper.

Yeah, Jack Black is also an actor. I bought their new album today, "the pick of destiny", and I also have the previous one "tenacious D", Both albums are extremely funny, with really good music too. You should try and hear them !

Yes, It was always a sort of spoof. The the band was around before the film.
They did a single called tribute which also provided ideas for the film.

They are real, but they are meant to be a comedy act. Spinal Tap is NOT real, although from what I've heard most Europeans think that Americans think they are. I frequently make references to Spinal Tap in my band humor, as if I believed they were a real band. Spinal Tap actually became a "real" (ahem!!!) band after the movie came out, but the real musicians are hidden backstage.
