God Ween Satan

I was so hesitant to buy this seeing all the stuff about Plain Records and Ween but finally having a extra 25 I went ahead. I was also worried it would be misidentified on amazon as the blue/pink pressing not the black which I heard is far better than the blue/pink. Well it’s the black thank Boognish and I have to say although it is definitely a auidably low mix there is no muddling skipping or pops at least in my instance. People gotta remember this was recorded on a 4 track in a bedroom over 30 years ago. This is the second Plain pressing of a Ween record I’ve gotten now and I gotta say I don’t see the fuss. Also should mention I’m listening to this on top of the line vintage Sansui with a Technics SL-D2 Ortofon Cartridge so unless your turntable/speakers are crap I would recommend and say don’t believe everything you’ve read.

Great start for the Ween brothers. It's so weird, twisted, beautiful, brutal and ugly all wrapped up in a tasty burrito. Theres plenty of songs here to keep you full and wanting more at the same time. Highly recommended.

Ween's first official album is 26 songs of craziness. Its pure undilluted punk rock zaniness with plenty of cock-rock metal riffs, loud noisy feedback, distortion, spastic shouted vocals, weird voice effects, randomly breaking into more calm but equally insane tracks covering genres as diverse as beebop and folk. All this without taken itself seriously at all. The musics all good but if there's any songs you don't like they're all different so you'll like something off here. Most of it is sloppy punk (psychadelic and goofy punk not unlike Butthole Surfers and Dead Milkmen) but "Fat Lenny" is like half-assed ACDC, "I'm In The Mood" is dumb (aka brilliant) hip-hop, "Don't Laugh" is pure little kid cutesy pop, "Don't Squeal" is beebop or lounge or something, "Nicole" is pure reggae, "El Camino" is a Spanish style ballad, "LMLYP" is pure funk (actually a medoly of atleast two Prince songs), "Squelch The Weasel" is slow creepy folk, "Marble Tulip Juicy Tree" and "Puffy Cloud" are psychadelic folk rock for smokin that chronic to. Most of it is fast sloppy punk ("You F-ed Up", "Tick", "Bumble Bee", "Ole Queen Cole", "Waynes Pet Young Un", etc) and "Up On The Hill" is a punked out gospel song. There's 26 songs total. The remastered version, which I used to have has some extra tracks which are really good and has a track listing but the old one was cheaper so I got it. It was produced by the dude who played bass in Gone (Greg Ginn from Black Flag's side project) and later in Rollins Band (with the singer from Black Flag) and has anyone noticed "You F-ed Up" ends the same way as "Rise Above" by Black Flag? Anyway, Ween's first album is a timeless classic. Every song is cool and DIFFERENT. This is before they were a professional band (check out At The Cats Cradel dvd or youtube to see). They are fun and very talented. Fans of newer Ween may not like this and fans of older may not like newer but its all cool in my book. No too Ween albums really sound the same but I highly recomend this one and The Mollusk above all. Chocolate And Cheese being the most mainstream and The Pod being the least if you care about that stuff. La Cucaracha's kinda boring. This ones freakin hilarious. If you like weird and fun buy this!!!!

Great album

It came - box held open...record cover actual had folds in it - which was disappointing as I’m framing this.....Great album....but ya Ween fans know this already. Bummed about the shipping.

Ween's debut is unlike anything else. Instead of sounding mainstream (like White Pepper), Ween goes all out with their bizarreness and they would continue this on with "The Pod". While probably not a great introduction for those trying to get into the band, members of the tribe of Boognish and love the brown sound need this

Always a hit. Original, early Ween! Quality is amazing, clear, and if your only a fan of new ish mainstream Weem albums, this might not be your jam, but guarentee greatness in Ween !!

The record was unplayable. It was sent in a bubble envelope with no fragile warnings. They ruined this hard to come by vinyl.

Obviously it's amazing.

ウィーンらしくこのアルバムも全体的にごちゃごちゃしてるが、全体的にロックな感じ。シャウトも多い。それでいながら、がっつり聴かせるんじゃなくて、いつもの軽ーいテンポなので通勤通学なんかで聞いてられる一枚だと思います。（僕だけかもしれないですけど）ウィーンの曲を聴いてると「まあ何とかなるか。」「悪い事ばっかじゃないか。」みたいな気分になるんですが、このアルバムもそんなウィーン節が炸裂です（笑）。とくに13曲目のNicoleがバカっぽくて好き。
