    If you understand ween, you'll love it. If you don't get 'em, yet, then you might want to miss the "Homophobic" Mister Richard Smoker, despite its side-splitting wit, tongue-in-cheek silliness, and magnificent representation of the band's typical ridiculousness.

    I want to begin by saying I have no experience with Ween outside of this album & Chef Aid. This is an album of good music. You will not be disappointed; particularly in that each listen opens up just how deep each track is. Since each song is crisp and concise it never drags either, Ween have done a masterful job of not wasting time or music, but rather enticing you to listen to the entire finished product again and again. Well worth it.

    I grew up in Nashville and have a deep appreciation for country music, and this is DEFINITELY country. In this album, Ween deftly touches on many of the classic themes of country music while refusing to veer from their irreverent roots. In fact, were it not for the sardonic tone of some of the songs, I think this would be beloved by many country fans unfamiliar with Ween. It seems to be a Ween tradition to create a would be radio-friendly tune and then add a weird wrinkle to make sure that it won't ever be on the airways. There is something incredibly charming about this sort of self-sabotage. "Help Me Scrape the Mucus Off My Brain," a beautifully rendered, heart wrenching song, is one of my all time favorite country songs. It's a good example of Ween seemingly intentionally warping an otherwise sweet and earnest tune to give it that signature Ween touch. With lines like "I think I'll steal the dog food money/ Buddy'll love me just the same," Ween totally captures the country ethos. The Nashville musicians featured on the album are renowned for their chops, and do not disappoint.
  • Surpassed my expectations (and they were kinda high)

    I totally dig this recording. I thought, huh, Ween, doing a country album?!? I purchased this CD when I was just getting into Ween. Right around the time I got The Mollusk CD. They put ween-loco lyrics to the classic country sound and it is so cool!!! I want them to make a Vol.2 to this. I was sold once I heard P**s Up A Rope, but songs like You Were The Fool & Powder Blue really set the Mood of this album for me. My least fav on here is probably Mister Richard Smoker, But it's like having a Branded Cow, letting you know this is a Ween recording & that makes it awesome!
