True, most albums lag in the second half, but the lag here is so noticeably at odds with the intelligent goofiness it follows as to almost negate it.
-
The band's most accessible album to date.
-
Under The RadarThough Quebec feels more like a collection of songs than a consistent album, the songs are generally good ones. [#5, p.110]
-
There's something here for everyone, to be sure--but closer to Ween's antic hearts, something to annoy everyone as well.
-
BlenderThese oddballs have chops aplenty, and the balancing act they pull off on Quebec is no joke. [Sep 2003, p.132]
-
Q MagazineEven a saint would find their patience severely tried by this. [Oct 2003, p.118]
-
I don't think anyone who already has some notion of wanting quebec could possibly be disappointed-- it's the genre-defying psych of The Mollusk and the incongruous irreverence of 12 Golden Country Greats, and some of the madness that is GodWeenSatan, and it's a lot better than the go-nowhere White Pepper.
-
A glorious and preposterous journey.
-
[It's] Ween's darkest record, and it is tremendous.
-
There's something positively stagnant sounding about Quebec.
-
Reaffirms the iconoclastic duo's ability to be novel without succumbing to novelty.
-
This is Pure Guava performed with the precision and cleanliness of White Pepper -- perhaps a mixed blessing for some (those who long for the Scotchguard-fueled madness of The Pod), yet it's a sheer delight for those who patiently sat through the longest period between Ween albums yet.
-
UncutWith Ween, nothing is done by halves. [Nov 2003, p.126]
-
Unfortunately, they don't have enough good musical ideas to pick up the slack.
-
MojoPlenty of smokey psychedelia, country-rockin' fun and damn fine tunes. [Oct 2003, p.122]
