专辑介绍

by Heather Phares

Dean and Gene Ween were barely out of their teens when they recorded GodWeenSatan: The Oneness, and it shows: it's juvenile in the best sense of the word, mixing their sprawling sense of humor with punk, heavy metal, and a surprising amount of pop literacy. At a whopping 23 tracks long, the album features a lot of noodling and lots of whacked-out pop, including &Nan,& a dweeby tale of unrequited love, and the jazzy &Never Squeal,& which shows off Ween's musical prowess and versatility. GodWeenSatan: The Oneness also introduces many of the song styles the band included on their later releases, such as the prog-rock-inspired ballad &Squelch the Little Weasel,& the Prince homage &L.M.L.Y.P.,& the playful, helium-laced pop of &Don't Laugh& and the funky, soulful &Nicole.& &El Camino&'s pseudo-flamenco, &Birthday Boy&'s surprising vulnerability, and the rambling, silly stoner-folk of &Puffycloud& also set the tone for Ween's future work. Though they'd released plenty of cassettes on their own by the time of GodWeenSatan: The Oneness' release, Ween still sounds like they're trying ideas on for size. Song snippets like &Cold & Wet,& &Fat Lenny,& and &I Gots a Weasel& are fun but less successful than some of the band's more developed songs or their more crazed outbursts, such as &You Fucked Up,& &Wayne's Pet Youngin',& and &Papa Zit.& Stomping rockers like &Old Queen Cole,& the sparse weirdness of &I'm in the Mood to Move& and the gospel parody &Up on the Hill& -- which introduces Ween's inspiration, the Boognish -- make GodWeenSatan almost as eclectic and inspired as the albums that followed it. However, the fun Dean and Gene Ween had creating GodWeenSatan: The Oneness is palpable, making it more than just a promising debut.
