The following is the discography of Ween, a Pennsylvania-based experimental alternative band formed by childhood friends Aaron Freeman and Mickey Melchiondo, better known by their respective stage names, Gene Ween and Dean Ween.
Album · 1990 · 26 Songs. The 29-track debut from faux-bros Gene and Dean Ween debases the history of popular music into a nasty lo-fi scuzz while deifying its most outrageous excesses. No archetype is spared their absurdist attack: The rap-rock raunch of Old Queen Cole channels the early Beastie Boys at their most boorish; Old Man Thunder skewers Bob Seger in a 19-second micro-satire of Night Moves.
White Pepper continues Ween's quest to prove that they can cover just about any style of music with impeccable wit and accuracy. Like the White Album, White Pepper lacks the cohesiveness of earlier works, but it also demonstrates how a band can undergo some serious genre-bending, while still retaining a sound that is uniquely theirs. Trending Now. Ken Burns Rates Mockumentaries, Psychedelics, and Old Town Road. The first thing you'll probably notice about White Pepper is that, for the first time ever, Ween sounds like an entire band. While The Mollusk merely hinted at a bigger, fuller sound, White Pepper serves as the Do the Collapse to The Mollusk's Mag Earwhig!.

If Ween wanted to create an album consisting entirely of something different they they've both reached their ultimate goal and at the same time stood by their van. The roots of Ween are still sprinkled like paprika throughout, not as effective as you'd think but y'know a little red never hurt anybody. Formidable as they are with the band thing, Ween did perhaps give in to what was expected of them. However they tried as best they could to avoid that. So maybe they didn't exactly succeed, whatever, but making good music has always been what its about.
Ween is an American alternative rock band formed in New Hope, Pennsylvania, in 1984 by childhood friends Aaron Freeman and Mickey Melchiondo, better known by their respective stage names, Gene and Dean Ween. After meeting in a middle-school typing class, the two began playing music and immediately chose the name Ween as well as their Ramones-inspired pseudonyms.
