This band can do very little wrong. Their last album was thrash metal and now they dropped an all-electronic album that also rules

I found the last one (that was the one with the really long title, right?), a bit disappointing.

But The Silver Cord is on my list of things to listen to.

The album with the AI generated artwork is their best one I think. Ice, Death, lava... Whatever it's called. The music video for iron lung is trippy as hell.

If you like Gila Monster their metal albums are Infest the Rats Nest and PetroDragonic Apocalypse (the album Gila Monster is from)

I would suggest Im in Your Mind Fuzz or Nonagon Infinity as the best intro. If youre into jammier stuff then Ice, Death, Planets, Lungs, Mushrooms and Lava is one of their best as well

I refuse to listen to bands that have silly names.

Now excuse me while I put on a classic "Ween" album or maybe some "Sneaker Pimps" from the 90s.

I'm waiting for the US release tomorrow, but yeah I can't wait. I've avoided the released singles so far. IMO this band just keeps getting better.

I don't typically like metal, but I think PetroDragonic Apocalypse is top tier.

I didn't realize at first that the bandcamp link lets you stream the album for free. I went ahead and listened to both versions. Good stuff but I also need a break before I get back to it. Even the standard version didn't feel that short because it's so dense. I definitely wouldn't recommend new fans start with this album due to the weirdness and calls back to other albums (without getting into spoilers).

I may have to check them out!

Do you agree "Golden Eel" that The Mollusk is Ween's best album?

I think it is, but could see Quebec and Chocolate and Cheese as favorite picks too.

Yeah The Mollusk is their masterpiece

id probably put C&C on the lower end of albums tbh. It leans too much on gimmicky weirdness but doesnt have the lofi charm of the earlier albums

Quebec on the other hand freaking rules and has some of their very best songs
