KevinG Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 The Mollusk and 12 Golden Country Greats where my jams in college. I also used to do a lot of drugs back then. Though in the past 10 years or so their music has fallen flat. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Cam Jones Posted May 30, 2012 Author Share Posted May 30, 2012 oh c'monnn! White Pepper and Quebec are amazing! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
lamradio Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 One of my first experiences partaking in an intoxicating substance other than alcohol was listening to Pure Guava. Blew my freaking mind... They are/were on my list of bands that I must see before I die.. Guess I'll have to wait for the reunion 10 years from now.. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jw harding Posted July 12, 2017 Share Posted July 12, 2017 A great retrospective and celebration of the Mollusk as it turns 20. A masterpiece of an album, by one of the greatest bands ever. http://www.stereogum.com/1951136/weens-the-mollusk-turns-20-an-oral-history-by-mickey-melchiondo/franchises/the-anniversary/ Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sir Stewart Posted July 12, 2017 Share Posted July 12, 2017 Thanks for sharing that. The Mollusk is indeed a masterpiece. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

This thread started on -- Posted 29 May 2012 - 09:11 PM --- guessing a search was done and this one was bumped. Looks like lamradio only had to wait 4 or 5 years for the reunion. I don' think I ever heard a Ween song. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Some people don't know what to make of them, because they fuck with preconceived notions of what is appropriate in rock n roll. Hard to tell what is serious and what is a joke. Amazing songwriting, insane live shows. Listen to the Mollusk. Don't take my word, Storm Thorgerson said in that article that they were the heirs to Floyd and Zeppelin, the only band he was interested in at that point in his life.
