Jack Black is a Alternative rock and Heavy metal act. Their catalogue also touches Rock. Their sound grew out of Lyrical Lemonade, Carl Douglas, Andrew Lloyd Webber, Paul McCartney and Gladys Knight. Those roots explain a lot about how Jack Black arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as Parry Gripp, Tenacious D, Gummibär, Liam Lynch and Uncle Kracker, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into Brooks Wackerman, Kyle Gass and Dave Grohl, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 29 connections around Jack Black, reaching back through Lyrical Lemonade and forward to Brooks Wackerman.
