Talk:The Mollusk

message: I just removed this from the Track listing section:
:The band Shortbus, containing a member of Sublime, does a cover of "Mutilated Lips" on one of their albums.
I'd certainly like to see a longer entry for The Mollusk, which is one of my favorite albums, let alone Ween albums, but this is out of place by itself. I don't usually like to delete things, but this is also egregiously unsourced and incomplete. And what's with the Sublime aside? Anyway, perhaps something more can be done with this at a later time. --WWB (talk) 16:23, 25 January 2008 (UTC)

message: Should it be mentioned that "Dancing in the Show Tonight" is a re-written version of the novelty Christmas song "Are My Ears On Straight?" (as recorded by Gayla Peevey).  I don't know who it was written by Antmusic (talk) 17:29, 4 March 2008 (UTC)

replies: text: It does not actually. The source only calls it a riff/parody of prog and that it's prog influenced. Not the same thing. Andrzejbanas (talk) 22:08, 21 August 2015 (UTC)

text: Again, it does not. Let's look here: "It just isn't as explicit about its intentions. Nearly every song on The Mollusk has a nautical theme, buoyed by a heavy progressive rock influence. Several songs deviate from the theme -- the synthetic new wave pulse of "I'll Be Your Jonny on the Spot" and the frenzied pseudo-country of "Waving My Dick in the Wind" are neither seafaring nor prog -- but there's an unmistakable watery undertow to the record. Perhaps the loose concept is the reason why The Mollusk is the most concise album in Ween's canon, but it's not what makes the record so impressive. Like Chocolate and Cheese, The Mollusk could seem like a comedy record to outsiders, but the songwriting and performances are so remarkably accomplished that it is just as listenable after the shock of the humor has faded away. "The Mollusk," "Mutilated Lips," "The Golden Eel," and "Buckingham Green" are all startlingly accurate send-ups of prog-rock"
These are the only mentions of the genre in the page and are clearly stating they are influenced and also parodying it. Not that the album belongs to the genre. Andrzejbanas (talk) 23:30, 22 August 2015 (UTC)
