Ween - Shinola Vol. 1 CD

Originally released by Ween's own Chocodog label, SHINOLA VOL.1 is the first in a series of rarities collections by the ever-wacky Pennsylvania-based duo. Here Dean and Gene Ween's giddy, genre-hopping sound careens from distorted lo-fi ditties (the bizarre "Tastes Good on th' Bun") to surprisingly straightforward pop/rock tunes (the blatantly Elvis Costello-like "Gabrielle"). While this isn't the best starting point for newcomers to the band's absurd world (that would be THE MOLLUSK or CHOCOLATE AND CHEESE), SHINOLA is sure to entertain the Ween faithful.
