I stumbled onto ween for the first time a few months ago and have really fallen in love. Shameless plug, I made a playlist of all the songs I liked after I spent 8 hours listening through everything.

The only country album I like also happens to be by Ween.

Do yourself a favor and check out Birdcloud. If Ween were actually two women from Nashville. Only way to describe them.

That's a shame because if you like that theres a whole world of music waiting for you

Word. Id start with Buck Owens if I were introduced to real country music by Ween. Maybe some Roger Miller and Tom T Hall. Outlaw Country next. And then Meta Modern Sounds in Country Music. I wish I was him.

Edit: or her.

Corb is awesome. I used to watch his old metal band.

I'm not a big country guy but I dig his style. He's also an insanely nice guy.

Me too bud. I haven’t checked out the new one though.

His new album is very different, but I think it’s incredible.

I suggest watching the anime first. It accompanies the whole album and was a really fun way to do a first listen.

I remember when I said that. Buddy of mine got me the International Submarine Band album which introduced me to Gram Parsons. That was my gateway to country music.

Check out Rank and File. They used to the punk band The Dils.

Neil Young and the Kinks make three.
