The Story Behind: Ween - The Mollusk, Ep 172

The Story Behind: Ween - The Mollusk, Ep 172

Musicians recount the strange and unexpected story behind the making of your favorite albums. Ween set their hearts and spleens to being the brownest rock band on earth. And with The Mollusk, they made their undersea hallucinations a reality. The boys talk about deranged confidence, acid-tinged rock star humility, and the artistic history of New Hope, Pennsylvania.
