OCEAN MAN
>>65817245
Great, right?
>>65817271
Not your cup of tea, or are you memin? I really liked this, caught me off guard.
>>65817304
Yeah man, I saw it in a good amount of threads and never thought to check it out. This is pretty great. Each song was just more different than the last.
Reminder that Pink Eye (On My Leg) is severely underrated.
>>65817366
That's how it is in pretty much every Ween album, other than like 12 golden country greats
>>65817457
Even in 12GCG, each song is a different style of country.
Fluffy sounds nothing like Japanese Cowboy
>>65817457
>>65817505
Where do I go from here, if at all? Did they peak with this album or is there a better one?
>>65817671
That all depends on your personal taste.
>lo-fi wacky shit
The Pod
>Smooth Alt Rock
Quebec
>>65817671
If you like The Mollusk then check out Quebec and Chocolate And Cheese. They're less brown than some of their other work.
When it comes to picking a favourite Ween album the results are always scattered (which is a good thing).
>>65817671
I really enjoyed White Pepper
>>65817708
>>65817714
>>65817731
Awesome, sounds promising, cheers!
>>65817714
Dont' forget Pure Guava (Underrated) and White Pepper. Both are great too.
Ween is the shit.
Love The Mollusk, my all time favorite album. Love the nautical theme, the album art and most every track besides Blarney Stone. I also recently bought the vinyl and actually found a rare vinage Mollusk shirt from the 1997 Mollusk tour which is hard to find and can't get online.
Quebec and The Mollusk IMO are both their best work. So amazing.

>>65817430
True. But Kim Smoltz >
I liked this album the first time and hated it the second. All the songs got extremely annoying.
GOD WEEN SATAN THE ONENESS
A child without an eye.
>>65817826
Gunna look for the vinyl soon. Also checking out Quebec as we speak.
>>65817945
Never experienced this before, only the opposite. What are some other albums you felt like this about?
>>65818071
Pretty much only this. I don't know why but it was the fastest turn around I've ever had.
possibly one of the most overrated albums of all time
>>65818022
Nearly made her mother cry
>>65818229
GO
The guys who made Spongebob have stated that the Mollusk was a heavy influence for the show.
What other Ween albums would you like to have been made into 90s children's cartoons?
I know its shit isint it?
Ween is pure spork
>>65818343
Quebec = Hey Arnold?
>tfw you find out that their real names aren't Dean and Gene Ween and they're not actually brothers
>>65818381
yeah they fucking suck but you listen to britpop
>>65818381
>Listens to Comus
>Calls anything else a utensil
When will they arrest you for bestiality?
>>65818402
I don't know why you would think that in any fashion, but okay.
I meant trying to visualize how an album would become a show, the way the Mollusk did.
>>65818381
oh man, montie is here. you know what to do boys *cracks knuckles* you walked into the wrong neighborhood, kiddo *grins evil*
HEY OP
if you liked the mollusk this is the best version of buckingham green
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-dC2tSL6DY0
really recommend the full album

Nah, fuck rankings.
Great thing about Ween, everybody likes a different album the most. So stay loyal to it, while knowing the other ones are great too.
>>65818751
you're talking to the most obsessive ween fan alive id consider everythign above 12 golden a 10/10, i can still rank and love them all
>>65818381
Montie hates something I love. This has just made my day.
>>65818801
literally same
not bland and white enough for him like fucking wilco
>>65818801
>>65818404
might as well be brothers. they were insanely good friends. a bond that can't be broken.
>>65818381
montie is a fucking retard piece of garbage.

>>65818433
>>65818565
>>65818801
>>65819114
Don't dignify his posts with a real comment. The only appropriate reply to montie post is "fuck off, montie"
>>65818381
fuck off, montie
Like the other anons said listen to Quebec ASAP. I was sleeping on it for a while because it's pretty emotional and it caught me off guard but it's easily their 2nd best behind the mollusk.
Ween is my favorite band and most people who like them are cool guys.
>>65817245
>>65817271
If I'm lucky, some of Mr. Tentacles' talent will RUB OFF on ME...
Something about Ween strikes me as too mean spirited and silly and insincere. It feels like they are making fun of music with their songs instead of genuinely paying homage to genres.
>>65820539
You should know you are incorrect, as is everyone who thinks anyone who plays in the style of genres with an element of humor is only doing so with malice.
Ween would not do a song in a style they did not like. Why the fuck would they bother?
One of the silliest things you could accuse them of, to be honest.
>>65820583
I don't know what it is, I like other artist who play various genres in self aware ways like Ariel Pink or Gorillaz, but something about Ween-maybe the lyrical content or album names or something- makes me feel like its all a joke.
>>65820474
i want tentacles to rub me off
>>65820631
Again, know that you're wrong.
No one would write a nine minute long Prince homage, if they didn't like the music.
Just roll with it dude. They're a little harsher than Ariel, but that doesn't make them not sincere about it.
>>65818381
you should listen to other songs than ocean man
>>65818381
>>65820583
>>65820767
That's post-modern as fuck.
I think.
>>65821186
it's called pastiche, and yes it's post modern.
>>65821273
Yeah. I used to know something about post-modernism. I think I still have an essay about that one Calvino novel.
>>65817430
Thank you.
>>65818463
GWS would be such a sick cartoon show, crazy late 80's/90's alt cartoon animation of a boognish flyin around risin up over th' hill and gettin a tick in its head and gettin real mad sceraming you fucked up and spewing fire while flashing electric blue and pink

fite mi
>>65824133
is it possible to be this pleb?
>>65824130
>Well 2 of them aren't awful but clearly are the goofy ones out of the others which are more cohesive and "professional" felt better too, and they don't really fit the nautical theme.
>>65824133
>It's Gonna Be Alright below Pink Eye
>>65824066
100 percent accurate
>>65824180
who are you quoting? :')
>>65824180
doesn't the album also have another theme about a break up or whatever?
Dick and to some extent Johnny fit that
>>65824242
Eh, kind of. But It's Gonna Be Alright is the goat breakup song. The others are fun but I just don't listen to them as much.
>>65824225
sure got me with that excellent opinion
>>65817271
Quit saying every fucking song sounds like Spongepob music
>2 Avalanche songs
>Ween
Where will you stop
>>65824347
to be fair Ween does have 2 songs in SpongeBob, more than any other actual band
>>65824459
>implying this somehow makes them bad
w e w l a d
>>65824459
>implying that the album didn't come out far before the spongebob movie did
sure is summer in here
>>65824502
it does
making even one song for kids makes your band awful
accept it
>>65822825
The Mollusk
It's Gonna Be (Alright)
Ocean Man
Mutilated Lips
The Golden Eel
Blarney Stone
Buckingham Green
Cold Blows The Wind
She Wanted to Leave
I'll Be Your Johnny on the Spot
Polka Dot Tail
I'm Dancing in the Show Tonight
Waving my Dick in the Wind
Pink Eye (On My Leg)
>>65824534
okay
>>65824534
well now I know that you have no idea what you are talking about, because The Mollusk came out 7 years before spongebob used the music.
>making even one song for kids makes your band awful
objectively wrong because TMBG has great children's albums
>>65824599
you don't know they made the shoe tying song for spongebob before the film?
face it, Ween is bad because they shilled out to Viacom to make some dumb song for kids
>>65824639
okay
>>65824639
you're just mad you still wear Velcro sneaks
>>65823064
>>65822864
what the fuck blarney stone is great
>>65824675
agree, i just think polka dot tail is better
>>65824673
>implying the convenience of Velcro is bad
tying shoes takes up too much time my man, I need to be on the go as fast as possible to listen to good music for adults, unlike Ween
>>65824701
okay
>>65824701
>not leaving your shoes tied and then slipping them on only retying them when needed
You're the child mate
OP here, surprised my thread is still up! I can't say I love them nearly as much as a lot of you do becuase I just found them today, but damn I love what I here. Most of you are right, Quebec is practically tied with the Mollusk. And I didn't comb everyone's lists too thoroughly, but Mutilated Lips is what sealed the deal for me my first listen through, I dig that jam. It's Gunna Be (Alright) is a close second.
>>65824701
There's a lot of irony in this post lol
>>65824752
>slipping shoes on and off
why not just get slip-ons then m8? don't even need laces. and it's okay to like children's music m8, no need to bring down my patrician tastes
>>65824766
I got into them a couple of months ago when they got announced for Riot Fest. I found this set on youtube which is really fucking good
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6DM8vB7N1Wo
>>65824794
i would post okay again, but slip on's are objectively the worst kind of shoe
>>65824794
>>65824794
Because I dont want to look like I escaped from a home
>>65824533
Ween literally wrote a song for SpongeBob.
>>65824533
Loop De Loop was written by Ween specifically for the show.
>>65824848
>implying slip-ons are for crazies
my dad wears slip ons and he's a successful television director
and since you want laces so much I guess you can just listen to Ween sing how to do it to you
>mfw i like loop de loop
i'm sorry /mu/, i didn't mean to fail you...
>>65824938
It's a fun song and Stephen Hillenburg personally asked Ween to write it because he loves them.
Literally anybody who holds that against the band is trying waaaaay too hard.
>>65822825
When you lived "It's Gonna Be (Alright)", it can't be a 7
>>65824922
Changing the channel with a remote is not really a television director. But whatever it takes for your pa to deal with his dementia.
>>65818381
More like PURE GUAVA
