Chocolate and Cheese [Explicit Lyrics]

Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com
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 text refers to the Audio CD edition.

Awesome.......2007-01-05

This is the first Ween album I hve ever bought, and I am very impressed. Mix Zappa-esque song titles with sometimes silly, very weird inspiration and college kid songwriting and you have a very funny, well done, interesting and strangely nostalgic sound. This is what happens when your high school garage band sticks to their roots and does well.

Excellent.......2007-01-05

I'm sorry this is so late! I thought I'd reviewed already...the disc was received in super condition and timely! Happy New Year... Stacy

Glorious. Horrible. Demented. Beautiful. This was the moment when WEEN hit on all cylinders...and exploded. What more can be said? This is one of the best records ever, no kidding. I love everything they've ever recorded, but this is the best.

The first Ween album I picked Up..........2006-06-20

Ween is the type of band that is a non-stop experimental band, it goes to show in this classic album, "Chocolate and Cheese". It was the very first Ween album I'd ever listen to, and Its one of those albums that you have to listen to a few times before you like it. At first I thought they we deminted (the first song I listened to was Spinal Menegitus), but after a while I came around and started to like their creative style, Needless to say, this is a must have...

Smile on mighty Jesus.......2006-05-09

One sunny Saturday afternoon while idly washing my hands at the bathroom sink I found myself singing the chorus to Spinal Meningitis (Got Me Down), not just humming it either but actually singing the words, and I knew right there that this record had worked its voodoo on me. I Can't Put My Finger On It--me, I hear Beefy--and A Tear For Eddie immediately said what and up now Amigo but really there isn't a bum note here--definitely one of Gener and Deaner's Beatles albums and a sonic wonder to listen to. The Mollusk is pretty near untouchable in my book but this dang disk is bulletproof after its own fashion. By the way, Modicum Mandy down there in his hive sure sounds a lot like Hyacinth Bucket, doesn't he? Stick with Phish my friend, that way you'll never have to taste the waste. As for the biddy further down banging on about the album cover, blow me if it isn't Andrea Dworkin come back to lecture us all from beyond the grave! Sigh. Just so you know, I gave this record 5 stars but someone at Amazon must've peed in the electrics because I can't seem to change it.
