Review

You've got to hand it to Ween -- who else could manage to offend and denigrate a huge chunk of the world's population over the course of just a four-track EP? Outside of the title track (strangely enough featured here in its "censored" version which conceals a naughty word with a sample of Prince squealing), the disc features three unreleased tracks -- "Mango Woman," "Puerto Rican Power (Pts. 1&2)" and "Ode to Rene" -- which respectively poke fun at Jamaicans, Hispanics and the French via a series of ethnic cheap shots and crass cultural assumptions. Deaner and Gener's easy assimilation of reggae, Latin rock and suave Franco-pop makes their smug, ugly-American superiority that much more hilarious -- at a time when everyone else walks on eggshells, Ween kicks sand in the faces of all the globe's citizens regardless of their color, creed, gender and sexuality. It's a dirty job, but somebody's gotta do it. ~ Jason Ankeny, Rovi
