Ween - DC Won't Do You No Good

New Ween is always a good thing, especially when it's as good as this. They released this track for "The Right to Track" a series of musical contributions from various artists to help raise funds for rare and underfunded cancers. "DC Won't Do You No Good" is a fantastic song and is definitely up there with the best works of the band. Shades of Neil Young:



If this is any indication, there is great reason to be excited for the next Ween album.

its alright. not very brown though. sounds pretty generic. ween is one of my favorites and not every song a band makes will be fantastic, but i hope they have better stuff than this on their next album.

"And as we continue to progress, I'm certainly going to take the adult contemporary approach. I want to sound like Christopher Cross in another ten years, and be totally proud of it. I want to play really lame guitars that were custom-designed for me, and be bald and gray and write really bad fucking adult music that sucks. And I'll embrace that, because that's punk rock." - Gene Ween, interview around the time of the Quebec release

now that's funny, but i hope not completely true.
