Ween are playing here on Saturday night. They are one of those bands that a lot of people really seem to like. However, I've never really listened to them. Like, not even a little bit. I couldn't name a single song title of theirs if you paid me.

From what I've been told, though, they rarely come here, and there's nothing that I hate more than missing a chance to see a band play that I'm not really into, only to "discover" them after the fact. So, good songs? Albums? I am an iTunes Music Store addict, so don't worry, there's no piracy going on on this end.

I suggest Limewiring a bunch and just listen to it and see what you like. They're not a band for everyone to be sure.

Added to say: Or just iTune it as per your post biggrin

Chocolate & Cheese
Ween is by far a gem on the cheap pimple ridden ass of American RAwk....

definitly get chocolate and cheese. it has one of their greatest songs, spinal meningitis. come on, who else can write the words "smile on mighty jesus, spinal meningitis got me down". sheer genius. also definitly check out white pepper. that's the one that really got me into them. it's like their version of the sixties music (beetles/beachboys/pink floyd). listen to this one while on mushrooms......or acid.....preferably shrooms.

I know what you mean..I was recommended them awhile back..but I have heard or I recall seeing them described as quite experimental..extreme at times too..Patton-ish possibly..which I love Patton in FNM..some Bungle..but gets to be hit and miss for me often.

But yer right..I have done that a few times and it sucks when you miss a chance to see a band you later love.

"spinal meningitus" is one of the most fucked up songs ever:

"it really hurts mommy, am i gonna die?"

"AIDS", on the other hand, is one of the most retarded (in a good way) songs ever.

and they are both on the same album. brilliant!

and i'm sorry, but anyone that doesn't sniker when they sing the line "mr. richard smoker, you're a poopy poker" on "12 Golden Country Greats" needs an enema, or something
