The Dean Ween Group
\nThe Deaner Album
\n<\/i>(ATO Records)
\n3\/5<\/p>\n

Best known as half of alt-rock duo Ween, Dean Ween is not one to sit idle between gigs. Since Ween\u2019s breakup in 2012, he\u2019s been jamming with friends, and it\u2019s culminated in The Deaner Album<\/i>.<\/p>\n

Opening with \u201cDickie Betts,\u201d a southern-rock ode to the Allman Brothers, the album is mostly made up of the sounds of fuzzy, sludgey hard rock, as well as the sounds of growing old; songs like \u201cExercise Man,\u201d \u201cBundle of Joy,\u201d and \u201cCharlie Brown\u201d clearly demonstrate this.<\/p>\n

Others, like \u201cSchwartze Pete\u201d and \u201cGum,\u201d sound like variety-show rejects from the \u201940s, unfortunately.<\/p>\n

Tributes to the recently passed Bernie Worrell of Parliament on \u201cMercedes Benz\u201d and the legendary Prince on \u201cGarry\u201d and \u201cDoo Doo Chasers\u201d are more than worth a listen; they may just make your day.<\/p>\n

Especially if you like old-man rock, Pabst Blue Ribbon, and Marlboros.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
