Ween’s Mickey Melchiondo sifted through the band’s vast collection of outtakes to make up Chocolate and Cheese ’s deluxe edition, and decided his favorites with Aaron Freeman. “Keeping with Ween tradition, Aaron and I probably picked all the wrong songs, mixed them, and now here they are,” Melchiondo said in a press release.

He elaborated further in the new album’s liner notes, writing, “When I hear it, I feel like I’m listening to an autobiography of our lives in the early to mid-’90s…If it sounds like we had fun making it, we did. That’s kind of what Ween is all about, though.” In addition to “Junkie Boy,” the deluxe edition includes unreleased tracks like “Junkie Boy,” “Warm Socks,” “Smooth Mover,” “Dirty Money,” and several more.

Ween are celebrating 40 years of the band with a brief tour of the Pacific Northwest in August, and celebrating 30 years of Chocolate and Cheese with a special hometown show at the Mann Music Center in Philadelphia. Ween were previously planning on a spring tour , but cancelled it earlier this year so that Melchiondo could focus on his “mental and spiritual wellbeing.” See their 2024 tour dates below, and get tickets for all Ween’s upcoming shows here .
