I think Ween are an absolutely amazing band. Have you heard The Mollusk? My favourite album of theirs is actually White Pepper, but The Mollusk contains most of their stuff which resembles prog. |

I have heard the Mollusk, and there's no denying that they have talent, but they are a little juvenile and too focused on humor for my tastes.

They're an interesting band, no question. I have two of their albums, The Pod and The Mollusk, and it's amazing how far ahead they progressed in just a few short years. The Mollusk covers so many musical styles - it impressed the heck out of me. "Ocean Man" is probably my favorite track on there.
Trivia: "I'm Dancing In the Show Tonight" is a partial rewrite of a song called "Are My Ears On Straight?", which was the b-side of Gayla Peavey's infamous "I Want a Hippopotamus For Christmas".

That's my absolute fovorite Christmas song.  I do have a copy of Ween's "12 Golden Country Greats" that I listen to and enjoy every now and then. -------------
