Studio Lore: The Mollusk was written around a seaside house, giving the album its strange ocean-world feeling: pirate voices, warped prog, sea creatures, and songs that sound like they washed up from another planet. Media Narrative: The album helped inspire the weird underwater humor of SpongeBob SquarePants, making Ween’s oddball nautical trip secretly influential way beyond record-store cult circles. Show more
