So White It's Brown

"The Ween bros have quite a back catalog and much of it is probably too eclectic for mainstream music listeners. Many of their hardcore fans like it that way. But they also have a few "easier" to listen to" albums, with White Pepper and The Mollusk as the standouts. They still have their tongue in cheek lyrics but the music is more power pop than garage experimental grunge. Here they are channeling their inner Beatles to great effect. Not every track is a winner, but on the whole, this is my favorite "mainstream" offering from them.
I'm not sure what the Ogv (Ogg Vorbis?) stands for in the re-release, but White Pepper is a highlight of their career. Fans of their early years may be disappointed, but the rest of us will find much to enjoy."
