GodWeenSatan: The Oneness is the first official Ween album, released on Twin/Tone Records in 1990. The album introduces several key themes for the group, including their eclecticism, gonzo sense of humor, and their demon god/mascot, the Boognish.
This album would be reissued in 2001 by Restless Records and jokingly referred to as the "25th Anniversary Edition" despite the album only being eleven years old. The reissue features digitally remastered sound, new packaging, and the inclusion of three bonus tracks integrated into the original album's playlist.
The album contains several tracks that are long time staples of Ween's live performances, such as "You Fucked Up", "Fat Lenny", "Marble Tulip Juicy Tree", and "L.M.L.Y.P."

Ween is an American alternative rock band formed in New Hope, Pennsylvania in 1984 by childhood friends Aaron Freeman and Mickey Melchiondo Jr.. After meeting in a middle school typing class, the two began playing music and immediately chose the name Ween as well as pseudonyms Gene Ween (Freeman) and Dean Ween (Melchiondo), a choice inspired by The Ramones. Ween performed as a duo backed by a Digital Audio Tape for the band's first ten years of existence before expanding to a four (and later five) piece act.
The band's style is eclectic, and while they can generally be referred to as rock music, experimentation with various styles incorporating a strong element of humor and absurdity has been one of their defining tendencies. Ween developed a large, devoted cult following. After a 28-year run, Freeman quit the band in 2012, effectively ending the project.
In November 2015, Ween announced that they would reunite in February 2016 for three shows in Colorado, with later dates subsequently announced.
