don't do that

yeah but that's the worst Ween album.
no matter how hard you try to make it my favorite it never will be.

Having a favorite Ween album is like having a favorite skin disease.

This
OP fails to understand that just because it's anything but the best ween album, doesn't mean it's a bad album.

MR RICHARD SMOKER

Could be worse I guess.

The title track is 10/10 tho

La Cucaracha > Quebec

Does Ween have an instrumental release? I vaguely remember one but can't find it

Oh fuck you

So does no one like this album?

No, a lot of us like it but it's their worst, but worst Ween album is like world's shortest millionaire

*blocks your path*

THIS.

What makes Quebec so special to everyone here over their others? I always found it one of their most dull and same-y.

The feels, mostly
It's also their least brown album so newcomers can get into easier than some of their others

White Pepper is underrated, good taste.
[spoiler]Pandy Fackler is probably my favorite ween song[/spoiler]

Flutes Of Chi is the most underranted Ween song

You already making a thread about this, no one cares that you have a strange hate-boner for Quebec. You're literally the only person who feels that way.

Best will always be pure guava my man

>implying The Pod isn't the best Week album

>PORK ROLL EGG AND CHEESE ON A KAISER BUN
Anyone else get feels from She Fucks Me?

the worst. whats wrong with you user

Fuck, *Ween

>She's gonna be my cock professor
>Studying my dick
>She's gonna get a master's degree in fuckin me
>I can do so many things
>With my own bare hands
>Take a shit on the bitch and fuck hooba-jooba
>Suckin on my shit
>Kickin with a pussy and jab a motherfucker
>And suck my fuckin dick
how is this not Sup Forumscore yet?

>implying it's not Pure Guava

also this guy is right

Reminder that you can't really appreciate The Pod until you've listened to it under the influence of Scotchgard

What other bands should I get into if I like Ween. I already like Butthole Surfers, who else?

The Stallion pt 1 is definitely their best song.
The Pod is great but it lacks the pop sensibility that GWS and Pure Guava have. Not to say that it's unlistenable. It's still fantastic, but it requires a lot more out of the listener.

They Might Be Giants

I listened to Flood I didn't really like it that much. Is Lincoln much better?

>he doesn't like Pure Guava

>Pure Guava
>worst
literally their best

I like them equally. Some people will say one or the other is better. Wouldn't hurt to give Lincoln a try though.

Yeah, I forgot to mention them. They're pretty great as well, I've always viewed them as the G version of Ween who are the R version of TMBG

Yeah no thanks plebs

Nothing. It's a decent album, but not as good as people here make it out to be.

I don't think you can call yourself a Ween fan if you don't like Pure Guava. It's maximum essential.

>can't handle the brown
>calls other people plebs

La Cucaracha is the Weeniest Ween album though, therefore it's more essential than Pure Guava.

How can you possibly think La Cucaracha is more Weeny than Pure Guava?

The Pod is the best album without question
Here's the official ranking
The Pod>Quebec>C&C>The Mollusk>White Pepper>12GCG>GWS>PG>LaC
Sorry for lying about PG being the worst but it's pretty damn close

I mean La Cucaracha is pretty alright but their first 3 albums are over all more /brown/ and have a lot of their best tracks.

It's not about being "brown" that determines an album's Weeniness.

>GWS that low
What the fuck man

what's your definition of "weeniness"

I'm not calling it bad

Brown is nice though
>see poopship destroyer on Painting the Town Brown

Here's the actual official ranking:

>god tier
The Mollusk
Chocolate & Cheese
Pure Guava
The Pod

>great tier
Quebec
12 GCG

>good tier
White Pepper
GWS

>okay tier
La Cucaracha

Correct, but it's a big part of it and Ween's most signature aesthetic, which brownness is a part of, is represented more on every other album.

What is the most feels-y Ween song?
I'd say Birthday Boy

I know but jeez man. It's got so many classics on it. More than I can count on ten fingers.

Definitely Birthday Boy
Runner up is 'If You Could Save Yourself (You'd Save Us All)'

Honestly only a loser wouldn't say If You Could Save Yourself (You'd Save Us All)

Also anyone here going to see Ween live this year?

The Mollusk > White Pepper > Quebec > Chocolate & Cheese > 20 Jazz Funk Greats > La Cucaracha > The Pod > GodWeenSatan > Pure Guava

Yeah going July 1st.

8/1 here. I can hardly wait. I have friends seeing them in Asheville this weekend and I've been harassing them about how jealous I am.

Cold Blows The Wind always makes me feel
also and I Don't Want It

>tfw Ween have only visited your country 7 times in your lifetime
>tfw last time was 9 years ago
If any of Ween is reading this (not an impossibility desu) please come to England again, and please come to the Midlands

Seeing them tomorrow in Charlottesville actually.

hah Im going Friday too user :^)

>seeing Ween on 4/20
I hope you have a good time user.
Watch out for YSG.

I always get major feels when I listen to Roses Are Free. It's not a particularly sad song, and I didn't even grow up in the '90s, but for some reason it gives me feelings that I did grow up in the '90s and that it was the best time of my life and I'm sad I can never go back.

She Wanted To Leave. Alone is runner up though.

>it needs pop sensibility to be "good"

The Pod does have pop sensibility ya dingus.

Absolutely not. That's why The Pod is so great. But it's just great in different ways from GWS and PG.

On a few tracks sure. But it doesn't sustain through the majority of the album like it does on GWS or on PG. albeit the pop sensability on GWS is short and sweet and Pure Guavas is completely siphoned out by the end of the album.

that's my all-time favourite Ween song

Nope. No Scotchgard was used during the production of the album. Mean Ween is just wearing some gas mask contraption in the cover art, and they said they huffed Scotchgard because it was the most slimebag thing they could think to say. They were, however, sick with mono so really you can't really appreciate it unless you've listened to it while sick with mononucleosis

Maybe Primus or The Residents? I see Ween + Butthole Surfers + Residents + Primus often associated with eachother.

It was a joke anyway. I don't even know if you could get high on Scotchgard anyway desu. Probably could.

Literally no idea what you're talking about lol. I still think Quebec is good. I just don't get why so many think of it as their best.

if you like any post-guava ween, then it's pretty much the definitive album for that era of ween. There's still a few spots here and there that could be considered 'brown' but that's not where the focus went, and it's pretty evident through how many 'conventional' songs there are on the album.

Chocolate and Cheese is the best overall album for the mix of tracks in the typical Ween style and the accessible tracks. The only bad track on it is Buenas Tardes Amigo and no I'm not forgetting about Candi
Cold Blows the Wind got me teary-eyed the first time I listened to it. Alone makes me feel something too
Hell yeah I'm seeing them early June

THANK YOU. Best track.

Buenas Tardes Amigo is the best track??
What don't you like?

>ween will never play in vancouver again because of their 2011 incident

music for this feel? strongly considering going to the seattle show despite it seriously conflicting with my schedule for that week

So what genre is the Mollusk lads?

>music for this feel
Birthday Boy (Live in Vancouver 2011)

do what they do for they might be giants

call them eclectic. its not wrong

The fuck is pornogrind.

Grindcore with lyrics about cocks and fannies and stuff

It's the most boring track on the album. Very little dynamic change, no interesting sounding parts, too long for how little happens in the song. It's basically lyrics jerkfest and we all know lyrics are the least important part of music. Would at least be decent if the lyrics were anything like typical Ween lyrics, but no, it's just a hyper regular song.

desu Buenas Tardes Amigo is one of my less favourite songs on the album, but it is so fucking worth it for the complete mood whiplash at the crossover from it to the HIV Song. Funniest part of Ween's entire discography IMO.

Deaner was in that documentary about The Residents, so it's worth a listen if you like Ween
so was Les Claypool, actually

Damn, didn't know that
I know Dean went fishing with the guys from Butthole Surfers and Claypool, and that Claypool likes The Residents and covered Hello Skinny and Constantinople from Duck Stab.
Are you referring to the Theory of Obscurity documentary?

>Are you referring to the Theory of Obscurity documentary?
that's the one, yes. the whole thing is on youtube, it's definitely worth a watch if you're into The Residents

Could you post a link? The only video that is documentary-length is youtube.com/watch?v=BRVUW4RhByU which is just some clickbait ad

youtube.com/watch?v=poqYT_yWukU
here you go

No! I don't want that.

Thanks anyways man, I appreciate it even if I wasted your time

WILL THEY BUST OUT THE STALLION PT 1-5 THIS YEAR?

youpak.com/watch?v=poqYT_yWukU
see if this works

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

The friends EP has as many good songs as La Cucaracha.

The Pod is actually too brown. I still haven't broken that barrier and I've broken it on every album. GodWeenSatan was actually more accessible and had songs that weren't buried in warbling, interestingly enough.

You also have a fairly great point. Pure Guava DEFINITELY grew on me. The recording quality is a hurdle to overcome but it's nowhere near as bad a hurdle as the Pod's production.
There's gems among an already great tracklist. It's hella creative, and there's a reason it's Allmusic's only Ween album with 5 stars. My only problem is the second half of the album feels unnecessarily dirty, even by Ween standards.

It's the progression. There's tons of great songs to point out, but it's the fact that around the halfway point (somewhere between Chocolate Town and Captain), it takes a downturn STRAIGHT into darkness and doesn't really recover in a way that's kind of admirable. A lot of albums get darker or happier as they go on, but very few go that dark and then try to get back up at the end without it feeling forced. It's also the first time a Ween album with all of its varied styles has TRULY felt like it flowed from song to song. Even The Mollusk can't say that.

It's the closest of any of theirs to being a bad album though.

There's two guys
One is 600 miles from a big piece of shit and the other is 500 miles from it.
Neither of them are particularly shitty but well call the guy 500 miles from it shitty because he's the closest?

*Closest*
not actually it. Just because I'm 0.6% cherokee doesn't actually make me fucking cherokee.

What is it about Ween that makes them so timeless? I've gone through phases with so many bands and have never revisited most of them, but even 4 years later Ween still sound really fresh.
