See?
Look at what you've done.

But I guess on a "serious" level, if you want to talk about Ween, we can. They're not my favorite. In fact, some of their material gets down right teeth gritting - to the point where I opt to punch infants. Even with their best album, I like roughly 85% of it. They definitely have some of the diversity elements, which can sort of be compared to Bungle ... Only ***er ...

i was being serious in a childishly excited way, we don't even have a Ween thread. Or maybe I made one...

yeah not all their stuff is great depending on what you're after but i assumed you were a fan since they were in your intro thing. oh well!
i'll just wrap it up with a quick preference flow chart cause they are so popular around here
Pure Guava>>Chocolate and Cheese>>>>Mollusk>>>the vaguely annoying super lo-fi early stuff>>> the rest

the thing with Ween is you can tell they listen to a lot of 70's Beatles-y soft rock and when they could be bothered they were master pop craftsmen; but they did write in a variety of genres and had that retarded scatological side. Just not all in one song like Monsieur Bungle. A lot more tongue-in-cheek as well vis à vis the voice manipulation, which is probably what makes you grit your teeth.

And Bungle are spotless really because they paced themselves to three excellent albums over a decade
