![]() The limited-pressing CD, available exclusively through the band website, became an instant collector's item. Later, Ween released the first official Chocodog album, Live in Toronto, Canada. Ween formed their own label in 2001, Chocodog Records, the label Ween originally planned to release Paintin' the Town Brown on. The pop-themed, Lennon-McCartney-inspired album produced two singles: " Even If You Don't", which was made into a music video directed by Trey Parker and Matt Stone, and "Stay Forever". Ween's sixth studio album, White Pepper, was the band's final studio release for Elektra and was released in 2000. However, according to Melchiondo, once the album was completed, Elektra realized the sales potential of the CD and denied Ween the right to release it through their independent label. The same year the band had planned to release a live album compilation spanning their entire career up to that point, titled Paintin' the Town Brown: Ween Live 1990-1998. The band's desire to pursue alternate forms of media led to the MP3-only release Craters of the Sac, presented by Melchiondo for online download and free trade. It is considered a prog rock concept album, and featured the singles " Mutilated Lips" and " Ocean Man", the latter gaining a significant following after being a song on the SpongeBob SquarePants Movie soundtrack. The nautically-themed album The Mollusk followed in 1997. It gave way to the singles " Piss Up a Rope" and "You Were the Fool". Ween's next album, released in 1996, was titled 12 Golden Country Greats and was recorded with several prominent Nashville musicians, featuring a distinct country sound. In 1994 Chocolate and Cheese was released, which spawned the singles " Voodoo Lady", " Freedom of '76", and "I Can't Put My Finger on It". ![]()
