No bullshit I introduced my good friend Clayton to ween when I was 16 and I’ve been a drummer for 13 years (I’m 24 now) and he used to play all of deeners songs on guitar and I’d play the drums. Long story short he got them tattooed on his thigh 3 months after I introduced him to them, this album specifically. My dad has the directors cut on DVD, greatest unknown band of all time
This whole band is incredible. Claude is one of the greatest drummers in the world. Met him once and he was a great guy. His band Amandla was playing at the local club in my small town. He can also sing his ass off and tear up a guitar too!
I can listen to this whole album start to finish…. But can never make it all the way thru without repeating this one at least one or five times. Haunting… beautiful.
""If you want an indicator of just how much The Mollusk influenced SpongeBob, you need to listen to the album’s standout track ‘Mutilated Lips’. The modulated voice that sings the chorus of, “Mutilated lips give a kiss on the wrist / Of the worm-like tips of tentacles expanding”, is so close to being SpongeBob’s that the first time you hear it, you’re shocked thinking that Ween had copied SpongeBob. However, it was the other way round. SpongeBob didn’t air until 1999."
and once again im high "licking my brain" to Ween...and suddenly all in life is well again..realise that the skies arent made of gold, the path of lifes not so easy to course...
I don’t think I’ve ever seen a whole set as amazing as this show was. Absolute perfection. They ended with Blarneystone correct? When everyone is waving back and forth in proper sea shanty fashion… gets me in a good place.
Incredible, now looking back at this how hardcore Aaron's trip was before he got help cause he aged so much in only 15 years. It's like he aged twice as much.
@@shillian4770 I saw Mickey in a recent video and he is not doing too good himself it seems. He was really bloated and had gained a lot of weight. He looks very unhealthy. Hope he gets it together cause as soon as this pandemic shit ends we need another dance with the boognish!
this track is so dope....I didn't really even like ween and my friend gave me this chicago concert on dvd and I've been a huge fan from then...thanks for adding this.!
They are playing again! My buddy just saw them in Oregon and said two minutes into the show he ran down front and screamed his head off for the next two hours.
This song pushed me to get together with my ex-wife. A lot of nitrous and tripping was involved. God I wish I remembered that few year's because what I do know is I had some incredible times.
Gene kinda reminds me of a slightly cracked out Chris Kattan sometimes..... I can't believe I lived literally blocks away and missed this show. =/ kudos for posting this!!
Addicting...and the thing Gener does with his eyes makes the song all the more amazing.
I agree!
The earth realm will never be yours.
Ya I noticed that too! 😂
He's a very animated singer kinda like les Claypool or an even better example would be Eddie Vetter from Pearl Jam
I was just thinking how much I love geners live in Chicago crazy eyes
sorry to break it to you but that's just because he's tripping absolute balls.
The Mollusk should be on everyone's top ten album lists of all time.
Don't know about everyone, but If you're into psychedelic, definitely.
-"top ten album lists of all time"- *_"Top 10 All Time album lists."_*
There, fixed it for you.

It's on mine for sure

Most underrated band ever. These guys were genius.

i’d have to say bjm tops this in terms of being underrated and amazing
@@evanflowers03 who os bjm?
Alben Murcia the brian jonestown massacre, you should listen to their music
@@evanflowers03 thanks. I actually recently downloaded some of their music but have yet to listen to it

jehadsound Claude’s drumming is what made me realize I need to listen to everything from these guys. Nice to hear that he’s cool!
Why did I read this in Wesley Willis’ voice?
@@danieldalton8266 Rock over London. Rock on Chicago
ween drummer is one of my favorites. I was about to write that and saw this at the top.
You shoulda seen old Jimmy Wilson dance
One of the absolute best written songs I've ever heard! Chords, melody, the lyrics...not to mention that sweet ass synth. Pure bliss!
I concur
I can listen to this whole album start to finish…. But can never make it all the way thru without repeating this one at least one or five times. Haunting… beautiful.
Listened to this album for days while vacationing at Cox's Bazar beach. I thought I was becoming a sea creature. I recommend tripping to this album.
cant go wrong with ween while having a good time in any capacity
'I think I am growing tentacles...*pauses*...This pleases me.'

Hahhahaha oh I'm gonna remember that!!!

Why not?
This song is like a psylocobin experience translated into music that you can taste a long time ago. The whole mollusk album is awesome.
Yes it is
The mollusk was so awesome that it inspired the TV series Spongebob Squarepants.
My favorite song to peak too.
Why am I yawning so much
The mollusk is my fave ween album and I love most
I love how he jams the drums with his hands.
TON!
The Bass line to this song is really cool
Ya it is, do you play?
@@jtmma1 It's rude this guy never got back to you, even after 4 years. SMDH...
3rdcoastnyucka lmao facts rude ass dood but I do play I learned the bassline and it’s really simple but fun to play
What can you expect from a dude with two first names
@@3rdcoastnyucka it’s not rude
Gene is an amazing vocalist.
Ever seen them do Freedom Of ‘76 on freaking Jane Pratt show of all things? He hits every single note in falsetto and makes it look easy.
This might be the coolest version of the coolest song I ve ever heard. I totally love the eye popping too.
gener is a legend
I love your avatar image
Ween is one of those bands that gives me drug vibes without ever having to take the stuff. A+++ every time.
Claude Coleman never ceases to amaze me
Never?
Honestly, one of the most underrated drummers.
Yeah his work really stands out on this performance
I can not ever be weened off this music.
Ween is magical
+Meowlody Ha I posted that as well on another video, but yes they are, wish they would rejoin forces.
I got see Gener and Deaner both this year for the first time,been a fan for 20 years,Im glad I got to see them perform live
They are playing some dates this summer. The force of Ween will return.
Where did you see them? I first saw them at the 930 club in DC some 20 years ago...
I'm so intrigued and mesmerized by ween. Can't get enough.
Get 12 Golden Country Greats. Phenomenal album.
So am I and I come from a Jerry background too
I bet the whole audience was in a trance!
I bet they weren't
@@pornsakpongthong1092 actually...... we were
@@pornsakpongthong1092I bet you don’t get invited to any gatherings. Lmao
That opening drum sequence..and overall performance is better than the studio. Psychedelic
There's something almost sacred about this song.
one of my favorites, despite the fact that i've heard it 10 trillion times.
It’s so chill, almost too chill
Same. Fucking same.
BEST WEEN SONG EVER!
Ween make great hooks pulling you in
Claude playing with his hands so well - not surprising, he just kills every song.
Soooooooo underrated
I didn't think I could love this band any more than I already do, and then I saw this video.
Phenomenal. Much better than I expected. Was not sure how you could recapture the studio brilliance... but, they did.
Speaks to their level of talent.
And I haven't even mentioned that perfect guitar solo...rock on Deaner!
Top 10 guitarist ever. Not flashy when he plays… but technically??? Off the charts.
These guys are GREAT live!
I’ve noticed Ween is multiple things, mainly great, but their live performances are a chef kiss to music!
It's fine when things change, having this music only makes you stronger
I hope you’re well:)
Soooooo sick. I was at this show. Long Live Ween!
I don’t think I’ve ever seen a whole set as amazing as this show was. Absolute perfection. They ended with Blarneystone correct? When everyone is waving back and forth in proper sea shanty fashion… gets me in a good place.
such a go to feels song. i resonate with this no matter what state im at
Awesome song. Hard to put an experience into lyrics and music but they did it perfect
You can tell Gener was feeling that song.
Ween are definitely masters of their craft. This tune is a journey.
Incredible, now looking back at this how hardcore Aaron's trip was before he got help cause he aged so much in only 15 years. It's like he aged twice as much.
yea the dude had white hair in his 40's they definitely had a lot of fun back in the day.
@@shillian4770 I saw Mickey in a recent video and he is not doing too good himself it seems. He was really bloated and had gained a lot of weight. He looks very unhealthy. Hope he gets it together cause as soon as this pandemic shit ends we need another dance with the boognish!
@@cactaceous He seems to be doing very fine, judging by the numerous cameo video compilations on youtube
Got fat, got angry, started hating myself. Wrote Birthday Boy for you babe. Now skinny and sick and paranoid. Without a cent to my name.
They perform thai EXACTLY like I thought they would. Bug eyed heavy breathing completely out of it lmao
What a Great talent!! Thank you Ween
this track is so dope....I didn't really even like ween and my friend gave me this chicago concert on dvd and I've been a huge fan from then...thanks for adding this.!
That's exactly how I became a ween fan. It was all about the live shows!
I love the phased out sound of the guitars and bass. So good!!
Definitely gonna see these guys play one day.
They are playing again! My buddy just saw them in Oregon and said two minutes into the show he ran down front and screamed his head off for the next two hours.
@@mcqueen0195 hahaha oh man!!! that's awesome!
One of their best.
Eye.
like......what??? these guys are my favorite of all time!!!
Ladies and gentleman, Mr. Claude Coleman Jr.
I received an email by the man himself, last week 👌🏼
What a classic.
This song is gooey :>)
+Ike Willis haha its also juisy
Such a good way to describe it
Deadly!
What a song, Man....what a song!!
Ween ❤️
Exquisite. Brings back such great memories of a blissful time before everything changed.
love this song....seeing them play it live gives it more perspective!!! WEEN is awesome!!!
A drop in the ocean, a change in the weather, I’ve been praying that you and me might end up together
Man Claude is so good with the hand drumming
These guys putting on a great show in Chi town and I saw another great video of PJ Harvey rocking out in Chicago back in 93' as a 3 piece!
The perfect track x
these babies rock out!!!
Stuck in my head yesterday and today
Awesome song!
Just discovered them a few months ago...F'ing fantastic!!!
Just too good.❤
This song pushed me to get together with my ex-wife. A lot of nitrous and tripping was involved. God I wish I remembered that few year's because what I do know is I had some incredible times.
Couldn't love this more if I could. Amazing
The greatest stoner song in history.
Right? When I was in high school I used to smoke and then listen to this on repeat with the Xbox visualizer. It was absolutely entrancing
Feel like Cypress Hill should be mentioned at this point. But hell yeah this is epic
2020 still here
I absolutely fucking love this man and band
Perfect song
I might the live version better than the record. Both stellar!!
Very Cool sesh...
that is the most awesome vid...seriously! crazy eyes and worm finger
Trippy
Fancy seeing you here m8
Genius!
@weenrocker just got tickets for the July 2010 show at the Aragon in Chi!! ;)
finally.finally going to see them live! (about time)
Yeah man, this song is exceptionally trippy. Love it!
If you were there you got braggin rights.
Yeah this show truly was killer, I can tell just from the vids!
And I have jealousy rights lol
man if i was there i would brag and flex so hard to those who weren’t
Don't let that distract you from the fact that the Quebec tour didn't actually stop in Quebec.
@@withnail-and-i Lol
Hail Ween
Go back to the 90's and remeber when it was just Dean and Gene playing this without a band...
It’s giving SpongeBob. I absolutely love this band
youre the purest artist ive ever seen
Gene kinda reminds me of a slightly cracked out Chris Kattan sometimes..... I can't believe I lived literally blocks away and missed this show. =/
kudos for posting this!!
Спасибо
Thank you for this upload. I was hoping to see them play this at riotfest.
I love ween
Love this show. Wish I could have seen them live and now it looks like its too late.
I wish they were still touring
Whoa this performance is way more awesome than the studio version.
2024 babyyyyy
EVERYTHING IS TURNING BROWN!!
Gener and Deaner are WEENERS!
I'll never get over this song.I was like how the hell would they pull it of live? They did it's a great live performance. :D
Ween are one of those otherworldly bands that you can just escape to when you're having a rough day.
Give it time and you’ll find out how fast a decade can pass by. Me, I dwell in the past for I have no great philia of today.
Yes
Terry Gross: The sounds of Eastern PA
i mean jesus fucking christ what can be said at this point
In 6 games
this song is amazing!! this whole concert is amazing!! 423 views only is kinda sad!!
Few more views now
When he raises the pitch in the chorus he does a danny torrence hand bit
I just noticed that
heads up WEEN fans! They are playing the full Mollusk album this summer at RIOT FEST 2019!
And it was SPECTACULAR!!!
I've never done DMT. But if I did, I imagine the the guitar riff of this song is what it feels like.
You're close, but it's more like this th-cam.com/video/5HkHO_7Rchs/w-d-xo.html
How is it that Ween, the greatest band of all time, never became a fucking powerhouse?
spoiler alert, they did
Get your shit together dudes! Ween Reunion 2013, make my heart brown.
28,950 people. Not one dislike. Pretty Damn Brown.
Hell yeah bro.
