ok, nobody gives a shit about them anymore. got it
>>63078452
They're gonna be touring soon and new material is coming out.
>still finding humor in life
>mu
pick one
>>63078732
>new material
>not a new season
i dont think anyone gives a shit
typically unfunny and meant for children
music and comedy don't typically go together
>>63078732
no Murray, no buy

Fotc the only good one
fotc is good imo
98% is garbage
can't do em
ween comes too close to the skirting the line sometimes but i do like them.
TMBG is the only decent one I can think of
>niggas on /mu/ will pretend they don't love Tenacious D
>>63079780
genuinely not funny in the slightest
>>63078732
I'm quite excited
Flight of the Conchords is great and no one else matters
They said we never had hip-hop next to the canal and shit, you know what I'm sayin?
>>63079780
>FUCKING METAL, ILL SUCK YOUR FUCKING COCK, COCK FUCK COCK FUCK COCK
ayyy lmao
their hbo show was great but they became too fucking annoying by the movie to care
>>63078377
99% bad
everything is almost a good song or almost a funny song.
I love flight of the conchords the tv show, but I always thought the songs were the weak points of the show. with the exception of one or two.
comedy is the least replayable thing i can think of, and mixing that with the most replayable thing, music, is pretty weird and very difficult to pull off.
>>63078377
Flight of the Conchords, Jonathan Coulton, TMBG, and Tenacious D are all thoroughly reddit
Chicago had some great comedy bands back in the 90s that nobody remembers or have even heard of outside of Chicago.
The Wesley Willis Fiasco
Genral Patton and His Privates
Vic Vacuum and The Attachments
There are one or two others that I'm not recalling at the moment, though.

>tfw i got tickets for their LA show
>>63079934
reggie watts is awesome
>>63079276
>>63080070
TMBG aren't really a comedy band
>>63080516
I watched his stand up special on Netflix. The music was cool as fuck but his act as a whole just isn't funny
>>63079780
legitimately they wrote good songs
>>63079780
Reminder that Tenacious D is the best thing Dave Grohl has ever done.
The Lonely Island also have a new movie coming up.

>apatow
confirmed shit
>>63078870
Murray's gone Hollywood. X-Files was only the beginning.
>>63079890
>>63079973
>>63080575
>>63080598
seems like we're pretty divided on this one
>>63078377
Ween is just enough of a comedy band to make them the greatest band of all time
FotC were actually pretty awesome when I saw them live seven or eight years ago. I was very pleasantly surprised. Not many artists can pull off comedy music very well where neither the music nor the comedy is sub par.
>>63079934
Always on the scene always wearing green takin my hat off and sprinkling some magic dust
>Implying Weird Al doesn't blow any other musical comedy act out of the water
>>63079973
what movie?
>>63078377
usually mediocre comedically and musically

Ready to admit you dickheads are wrong?
>>63078377
Spinal Tap were legitimately amazing because you could play them at dadrock gatherings and people would dance to the music without realizing.
They were like the musical equivalent of Brass Eye
>>63079780
I admit I still smirk hearing The Metal
Comedy artists that kind of have varied subject and clearly have a decent ammount of focus on the actual music like FotC are fun and respectable but I dont really listen to them at the times id listen to music typically. Stuff thats really gimmicky and one note like star bomb is fucking atrocious.

Even if you didn't like the humor, it's so hard to deny he can do some amazing things with his voice and some petals. I love watching him perform
>>63081991
I just don't even understand who you are if you find this funny and you are over 18
>>63081408
Al is a supreme talent
>>63081527
The Pick of Destiny
>>63082524
yes we're all aware that you're exceptionally cool
Not meant to go together. Not even Zappa.
>dog doo doo snow cone :P xD
Thanks, I was almost digging the song
>>63082753
He's a national treasure, I remember /mu/ losing their shit every week he dropped a new song for his last album
>>63079934
I hate this fucking faggot. That "fuck-shit stack" song is so goddamn annoying
>>63082866
I'm glad you don't enjoy Zappa
>>63083282
And you're so unique and cool for liking it
>>63079934
reggie is so PLUMP
>>63082866
I love me some Frank Zappa but his sense of humor was terrible.
