What is the Boognish?
The Boognish is a Demon God who has appeared thrice to the prophet brothers Dean and Gene Ween. It resides somewhere outside the orbital buffer. Tradition has it that this entity holds a sceptor in each hand: that of wealth and that of power.
Is Ween a serious band?
Ween isn't a joke band, they're a band with humor in their music. Like Frank Zappa, not like Weird Al. They do have songs that are mimicing a specific artist, but it's more having songs of many different styles and genres. There isn't a joke to be in on, Dean is a great player and Gene a great songwriter.
Regarding this, who is the model on the cover of chocolate and cheese? Ween originally wanted the cover to have a "gay sailor theme" but the studio thought this was inappropriate, opting instead for a woman's body on the cover. The band say that they never got to meet the cover model, a Penthouse Pet named Ashley Savage. The cover was shot by John Kuczala.
Are Dean and Gene Ween brothers?
Ween is a band formed of the brothers Gene and Dean Ween. Regular members also include Claude Coleman Jr. (on drums), Mean Ween, bassist Dave Dreiwitz, keyboard player Glenn McClelland, Andrew Weiss (producer and occasional bassist) and others.
Did Ween make Ocean Man for SpongeBob? It is one of Ween's best-known songs, and has appeared on various film soundtracks and commercials since its release, most notably with The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie in 2004.

Was SpongeBob based off The Mollusk?
The Mollusk was a direct influence on the animated television series SpongeBob SquarePants. Stephen Hillenburg, the show's creator, contacted the band shortly after the album's release, and he requested a song from them which later became "Loop de Loop".
What was SpongeBob inspired by? In determining the new character's behavior, Hillenburg drew inspiration from innocent, childlike figures that he enjoyed, such as Charlie Chaplin, Laurel and Hardy, Jerry Lewis, and Pee-wee Herman.
Is Ween a good band?
It's remarkable. And Gene Ween might be even better at what he does, shape shifting his voice as needed, singing philly soul as convincingly as Cajun blues, and on the same album! I've become compelled to spread the word of this wonderful and criminally underrated band.
Subsequently, what song is ween known for? Released in the year 2003, "Transdermal Celebration," is one of Ween's most popular songs.
And another question: who writes ween songs?
Ween guitarist Dean Ween says the band writes around 50 songs for every album they make. Ween says it's been that way since the band first started when he was just 14 years old.
