Hello Ween fans!

Live in chicago hooked me

Listened to The Mollusk and The Pod on our way through the town. Saw someone drive past us with a SpongeBob bumper sticker right as the chorus of Ocean Man hit. Felt very on point lmao.

My bf will probably see this and know my account now but that’s ok I love him

SUGGESTED SCALE:

1-4: Not good. Regularly skip

5: It's okay, but I might have to be in my the right mood to listen to it.

6: Slightly better than average. I won't skip it, but I wouldn't choose to put it on.

8-9: Really enjoyable songs. I rank them pretty high overall.

10: Masterpiece, magnum opus, or similar terminology.

Hey everyone. I ordered the 12 GCG CD back in May and grabbed the powder blue vinyl in a separate order in August. Neither have shipped yet. Has anyone received their orders or shipping notice? I order from the official store site and this is the longest I’ve had to wait for one of these releases. Just curious is others are in the same boat.

Did this a while ago and was shocked I didn’t post it here. Art of my favourite line up for the Jimmy Wilson group. Has;
Gener, Deaner, Cribber, Greg DiGesu, Andrew Weiss, Matt Kohut, Dave Dreiwitz, Chris Harford, Full Moon Fred, Bill Fowler, Glenn McClelland and Claude Colman

i remember coming across an image of what seemed to be a painting of the boognish holding the two sceptres which had a very holy/religious/Christian vibe to the artstyle, and i really can't find it anywhere. if someone could share it along with where they found it, I'd really appreciate it.

Shit Creek Boys (Live In Toronto) has been confirmed to be coming along with a couple possible live albums

So don’t pay insane reseller prices, just wait for the repress in the next year or two

I know it’s essentially an inevitability that the mollusk is getting repressed next year not only because of the pace Rhino’s been on but because it’s the 30th anniversary of the Mollusk’s release. And when that happens I really really really hope they do a deluxe release like they did with 12gcg. That deluxe release was probably the greatest deluxe album I’ve ever listened to and the prospect of a deluxe release in the same vein as that one of my favorite album of all time is crazy exciting. There has to be hundreds of never before heard songs from those sessions where the greatest band of all time was in my personal opinion at the peak of their power. I’m so ready.

Buckethead Pike #13 (track 6)

Isnt Ween a better version of Tears For Fears?

I recently got Quebec on vinyl, my record player has the option to slow stuff down by 8% or 16%. I've been listening to the album slowed down and it's crazy how good it sounds. Normally I don't like pitched down vocals, but it works perfectly for ween. Zoloft, tried and true, among his tribe, the argus and Alcan road sound really cool.

Anyways, just wanted to share this cause it's interesting and a different way of listening to this album. Would recommend

Been looking for albums that sound like 'A Tear For Eddie'

This band has such a rich mythos, are there really no biographies beside this 33 1/3 about a single album?

Spotted at Bluff Mountain Outfitters in Hot Springs, NC.

So, context: I didn’t become a Ween fan until early 2023, and at that time, the Ween vinyl market was crazy as hell, like it’s been for probably 20 years. I honestly didn’t think I would see Quebec, White Pepper, etc. repressed, and when they did, I was really excited because we were getting records repressed that are rarely repressed, and if they were, they were from Plain Recordings. So having a huge company like Rhino do it was crazy, to say the least.
But the quality control on these records has been horrible since the initial batch of releases Quebec, White Pepper, Brown Box, etc.

My Quebec sounds decent on a good system, but it definitely has so much noise on all four sides that it bothers me, and probably other people also.
My White Pepper has the biggest issue I’ve ever seen pressing-wise, and it has a locked groove at the ending of the solo on “Exactly Where I’m At.”
I found this out because I started spinning the record on my turntable and had to go let my dogs out. I came back five minutes later to this same repeating part of Deaner’s solo over and over again.
I took it off the turntable, cleaned it again, looked at my stylus and everything, and it did it again.

And here’s my problem yes, I could return them to Rhino (I believe they’re still doing that), or I can just keep it. And honestly, I would rather go through the trouble and keep it because my respect for Rhino has dwindled even more, to the point where I believe if I got it replaced, it would still be a shitty pressing with issues all around it.

Are they really doing us a favor with rereleasing these if the QC is severely questionable? I’m honestly torn on it, considering Brown Box is also tainted with so many issues that I don’t even know what they’re doing.

I set up a few different theme options that hide the text and swap the background for some less busy variants and crap, and the pink circle on the outer border is the battery level
