Favorite Ween Album
Ween offers a rare look into the right side of your brain. I just love the progression of this album. . No matter who you are. .


Quebec is a Canadian province in Canada
Quebec got me back into Ween in college after I hadn't listened to them much since middle school. Ween like music and make music for people who like music. It contains several shades of brown highlighted by red and pink overtones and a few significant smatterings of yellow, but not very much green (with the exception of "Captain," which is also very foggy and so while you know the green is there you don't really see it so much)-- the cover is aptly hued. My last girlfriend used to call me 'Fancypants,' but I didn't like that so much as I like the song and the album. This is a generally mellow and Ween-virgin friendly album (perhaps second to 'White Pepper' in that respect) and could serve as a good introduction to the band for people who might otherwise be turned off by some of their more 'provocative' works. I like it better during the summer months.

And the Argus is practiced compassion.


Languid trippiness
They go for the goofy ("Happy Colored Marbles", Hey There, Fancypants") and the watery, dappled waves of the ethereal is everywhere. Think of Quebec as Mollusk II. And of course, one song that is bound to have you shaking your head ("The F***ked Jam"). Great pot album, specially if your weed is nice and fluffy. This is a little browner than "White Pepper"(what isn't?) but really, this is a groove more than it is an album, and the perfect one to light up to, barely anything to disturb the euphoria of a better world than the one you left.


you WILL get it!
And the thing is, what I've figured this album to be is probably nothing like what it seems to be for anyone else. When I first heard this album I was like, "What IS this?" So I listened to it again and I was like, "Um, is it THIS?" So I listened again and I was like, "Okay, so it's like THAT!" After about 15 listens I finally "got" this album and it is now my favorite Ween album (Mollusk is a close second).

I've actually learned that most Ween albums are like this. At first you're asking yourself what the hell you're listening to. . . then, eventually, it clicks. Buy this album and listen to it over and over again. You'll get it. I promise. I mean, c'mon, it's WEEN!.


Stunning.
If it was possible to make sweet, sweet love to any of the albums that I own, it would be "Quebec".
