Without going into a spectacular amount of detail, Ween did not come out readymade as the dynamic outfit that took the stage in Chicago early in the millennium – it took a lot of work to get to that point. In the embryonic years (from their first show in 1987 until the release of Chocolate And Cheese in 1994), Ween had a line-up of just Gene and Dean who, along with a Yamaha tape deck stocked with pre-recorded drums and bass parts that they’d play to fill out the mixes on stage, were determined to win converts to the band’s banner by presenting a performance piece of playful and infectious perversion.

  • No Drive-In Christian Wiggenhauser
    No Drive-in Christian Wiggenhauser Ween hält die Tradition des musikalischen Gemischtwarenladens aufrecht. Die amerikanische Band klingt auf einer einzigen Platte wie viele verschiedene Bands, und das jedes Mal mehr oder we- niger stilecht. Wenn so etwas wie James Last, dann richtig James Last. Aber nur 2 Minu- ten und 14 Sekunden lang, das reicht. Ween spielt die Sache etwas be- schwingter. Und schräger. So beginnt sie ihr neues Album. Auf schräg folgt melodisch, auf Rock folgt Easy Listening, auf karibische Limbo-Rhythmen folgen mexikanische Ausflüge. Ob ungepflegter Jazz, verrauchter Reggae, verschrummelter Indie-Rock und immer wieder überdrehter Country, Ween bleibt dem Genre stets treu. Sie friesst nie unter der Hecke durch. Sie veräfft es, manchmal auch weniger offensichtlich. Und sie hält es radikal von Fremdeinflüssen frei. Aber nie werden Stile vermischt. In dieser Beziehung ist sie schon fast stur, denn Ween macht das seit mindestens 16 Jahren. Sie sieht wohl auch alles etwas anders. Die Band stammt aus dem Hinterland der US- Ostküste und gab sich zuerst mal eine Fiktion: Die Besetzung sollten Brüder sein, man nannte sich Dean Ween (eigentlich Mickey Melchiondo) und Gene Ween (eigentlich Aaron Freeman). Später kam auch noch ein Mean Ween (eigentlich Mark Kramer) dazu, aber er macht auf dem neuen Album nicht mehr mit. „La Cucaracha“ heisst es, aufgenommen in ihrer Heimat Pennsylvania und angeblich in einem 200 Jahre alten, total verschimmelten Farmhaus. Kinder und Hunde sollen Hausverbot erhalten haben, die ungleichen Brüder eine Atemwegsinfektion und anschliessend nur noch den Wunsch, dass ein Bulldozer die Bude abreissen würde. Man glaubt ihnen so wenig wie ihren Texten, voller Ironie, Boshaftigkeit und Geschmacklosigkeit.
