Duke Lion Fights the Terror!! is the debut album by Big Dumb Face, released on March 6, 2001.
The musical style of Big Dumb Face was influenced by Ween and Mr. Bungle. Wes Borland stated that the band's music is "really silly and idiotic and bizarre. [...] It's nothing but stupid [...] just all these retarded songs."
Allmusic writer Kieran McCarthy described Duke Lion Fights the Terror as "a mediocre Ween rip-off."Rolling Stone wrote, "Wes Borland has picked up Ween's affectations (pitch-altered vocals with wacky accents, ultra-chintzy synth beats)...for genre mocking....working up a functional head of silliness a few times." CMJ called the album "A sick marriage of over-the-top death metal and Ween-y pop....it's an absolutely ridiculous record, chock full of pitch-shifted voices and ludicrous lyrics." Entertainment Weekly said, "Dumb? Check. Big? Not likely. But at least Duke Lion Fights the Terror isn't only about the nookie."
