Product Description
Amazon.ca
Those of us who worship at the Church of Ween (Hail to the great god Boognish!) know that skinny blond twerp Beck stole his whole shtick from New Jersey musical geniuses Dean and Gene. Always ahead of their time, the brothers Ween have responded by abandoning their traditional lo-fi four-track recording methods and giving us their lushest album yet, Chocolate and Cheese. Not that Ween's fourth effort is polished; that adjective could never describe an album that veers wildly from acoustic Mexican folk songs, to pure '70s disco, to the appropriately named single, "I Can't Put My Finger On It." But Chocolate and Cheese may come even closer than "Push Th' Little Daisies" to fulfilling Dean's goal of establishing Ween as the next Counting Crows. --Jim DeRogatis

This album is Ween. Period. It will give you with graces of the old and the greatness that is to come. It is hard to believe that this came before The 12 Golden Country Greats, The Mollusk, White Pepper, Quebec, and Shinola. It sounds so mature at points and so dirty(and brown) at other points, like the days of Godweensatan, Pure Guava, and The Pod. They hit on every one of their releases genres in this one. You will not be disappointed.
This is truly the ultimate Ween sampler. You will love it.

it was summer of 1999 or 1998, me, p and the kids all gathered at the corner and it was a special day because p brought with him sacks loaded with homegrown shrooms. "here," says he, handing me about 3/4 of an ounce of dried psillocybin, "these are for you." i eat a couple and he says, "no, eat the whole thing." this is probably the second or third time ever i'd dosed shrooms, so i take the whole bag. needless to say, within an hour the walls were bleeding and every cop on the beat knew i was high and were out to get me--so in desperation i went over to debbie's apartment, cg's girl, and she, cg and i listened to this album over and over for the next few hours while i hid in a fetal ball under a comforter on her ratty couch and smoked hash. later on i went to see ace and the rager's at the old grog. thanks, gene and dean, for pulling me out of my hellish bad trip.
also, this is the best cover ever. screw any humorless birkenstock wearer who says otherwise!

This is the first Ween album I heard. And I feel its their greatest. Do you need a warped sense of humor to like it? No, but it helps! Ween can be in your face, subtle and sweet, or abrasive.(with music and lyric)Sometimes it seems they accomplish this all at the same time!! This album has an incredible variety of content. I've noticed through the years that you can apply "Weenisms" to your everyday life and that's what makes this band work. It's the humor!!!! And as far as I'm concerned, Ween are incredible song writers as well. Buy this very entertaining CD today and laugh with the rest of us "Weeners" Highlights :"Freedom of 76", Tear for Eddie,Voodoo Lady, Don't sh*t where you eat, Roses are free,(should I list them all). What are you waiting for folks!!!!!!

HAHAHAHA Album cover?!?
Jesus Christ man, look up the word kitsch sometime.
I haven't listened to this album enough to feel qualified to review it, but I do like it a great deal.

The "Ween" machine.
The first time I listened to this album it reminded me of one thing, a soundtrack. Not just because it forced images into my mind, but because every single song sounds different... Read more

My First Time - In The Backseat With Gene & Dean

All heartless, but only partially GOOD and heartless
Ween could care less about your feelings, which is great. The problem is that it seems difficult to keep writing songs which are heartless and which also work. Read more

It's a start...
Although this is not nearly my favorite Ween album, it is probably the one that I would recommend to someone who has never heard Ween before. Read more
