Synopsis

Album Description
Heavyweight 180gm vinyl LP pressing. 1997's The Mollusk is yet another sign that Ween just got better and better with each record. The Mollusk is perhaps their most concise and well-honed record to date. After the previous year's exercise in country music (12 Golden Country Greats) the duo returns to its usual genre jumping, though there is a heavy focus on Prog-Rock. Often nautically themed and, as always, way smarter than they're given credit for, The Mollusk is one of the highest points in a brilliant catalog.

CD Reviews

ANOTHER GREAT WEEN CD!
J. Wilson | Somewhere between Venus and Mars | 09/30/2008
(4 out of 5 stars)

"This one falls in the vein of White Pepper and Chocolate and Cheese...Ween weirdness done with expert studio craftsmanship. They even throw in another dick song just to show they still suffer the effects of octopermanentia (intellectually stuck in the eighth grade). Get this one, White Pepper, Chocolate and Cheese, and, for a great example of their humble lo-fi 4-track beginnings, Pure Guava (pure fun weirdness and hilarity!). How these guys plagiarize the rule book, throw out the rule book, then re-write the rule book and go for pop songs simultaneously weird and well-crafted that get stuck in your head is anyone's guess. Brilliant."
Amazing monster of an album

"I consider Ween's The Mollusk their best album and creative peak to date. It has the perfect blend of everything Ween is about - the brown sound weirdness, the incredible melodies, humor, amazing guitar playing, and songs that are just catchy as hell. There's not a bad track on here. My favorite songs include The Mollusk, Johnny On The Spot, Mutilated Lips, The Golden Eel, Buckingham Green, Blarney Stone, and Ocean Man."
