Title: Pre-order the new Ween album
Post by: nkotb on October 09, 2007, 04:39:00 pm

For the two people that may care, Ween's offering a pre-order on La Cucaracha  here (http://www.rounder.com/index.php?id=album.php&catalog_id=7045).

I heard the album... disappointing. There's one track Blue Balloon that has silly background sounds of letting air squeek out a balloon, that's the only track that didn't bore me. But there's nothing I need to hear again

I liked it.
 
 
 The lower production quality harkens a bit back to god ween satan and the pod.
 
 "With My Own Bare Hands" is an instant classic. "Object" is as beautiful as a song about rape could ever be. "Fiesta" is a fun intro to the album. I don't care much for the newer mix of "Friends." "Fruit man" is as good as all their other reggae songs. "Woman and Man" is an epic monster and will kill live. There's something about "the party" that cracks me up but I can't put my finger on exactly what it is. As a whole, I don't think it was as good as quebec but it's a solid effort. I'll probably buy a copy at sonar.

Wow...
 
 The album is streaming online, but I haven't had a chance to listen.  I'm definitely looking forward to it, but then again, you guys haven't seen fan boy until you've heard me rave about Ween.

I hope it's good. It's not being hyped by pitchfork, so I'm not sure why nkotb is giddy about it...

This is what I love about our little community.  We all collectively hate Pitchfork when they don't hype our favorite band, then mock people for being excited about a band that Pitchfork doesn't hype.  Sigh...

Shamemaker is one I forgot to include as another of my favs. Best emo pop-punk song ever.  :)
