The Mollusk
''The Mollusk'' is the sixth full-length album by the band Ween, released by Elektra Records on June 24, 1997. It is a multigenre concept album with a dark nautical theme, with most songs incorporating psychedelic elements while also featuring a heavy progressive rock influence. According to Dean Ween, "I will say that the only record that I ever felt really confident about was ''The Mollusk''. That's my favorite record we've ever done." 〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Dean Ween picks his favourite Ween disc, gives the back story on La Cucaracha )〕
Electric Six covered the song "Buckingham Green" on their cover-album ''Mimicry and Memories'' (2015).〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Final track listing for Mimicry and Memories )〕
==Background==
Starting with the release of their 1994 album Chocolate and Cheese, Aaron Freeman and Mickey Melchiondo—known by their stage names Gene and Dean Ween, respectively—began to significantly enhance their approach to studio recording. While their earlier albums were almost entirely recorded by Freeman and Melchiondo themselves at their home using a 4-track recorder, ''Chocolate and Cheese'' marked the first time the band produced an album in a professional recording studio. It also notably began their transition from a duo to a more traditional band with the addition of drummer Claude Coleman, allowing Freeman and Melchiondo to experiment with a wider range of musical styles than they could with the drum machine used on previous releases.
Though Ween's 1996 album 12 Golden Country Greats was their first record to feature a full-fledged band on each track, these songs were recorded with various Nashville session musicians and was viewed by the band as more of spin-off album in the vein of The Beach Boys' Christmas Album than a true follow-up to ''Chocolate and Cheese''. ''The Mollusk'' was the debut album for keyboardist Glenn McClelland, and with bassist Dave Dreiwitz joining shortly before the album’s release, the band finally evolved into the final five-man incarnation that would remain unchanged until Ween’s break-up in 2012.
