Tenacious D released its first video album The Complete Master Works in 2003, which was recorded live during the promotional concert tour for Tenacious D. The album reached number 2 on the Billboard Music Video Sales chart and was certified six times platinum by the RIAA. The band's second studio album The Pick of Destiny, released in 2006, served as the soundtrack to the band's feature film of the same name. The album reached the top ten of the Billboard 200, the Irish Albums Chart, and the UK Albums Chart, receiving a platinum certification from the Irish Recorded Music Association (IRMA) and a gold certification from the British Phonographic Industry (BPI).

After a brief hiatus, Tenacious D returned in 2012 with its third studio album Rize of the Fenix. The album was the band's most successful in terms of chart positions, reaching peaks of number 4 on the Billboard 200 and number 2 on the UK Albums Chart. Later in the year the band released the single "Jazz", which registered on the Billboard Hot Single Sales chart at number 25. In 2014, Tenacious D covered Dio's "The Last in Line" for the Ronnie James Dio tribute album Ronnie James Dio: This Is Your Life, and in 2015 the group released its first live album Tenacious D Live.

All six episodes on the show were later compiled into a single film Post-Apocalypto: The Movie. In 2019, for Record Store Day/Black Friday, Tenacious D released a 'Blue Series' 7" single, featuring the track "Don't Blow It, Kage". The record was produced by Jack White.
