:''Falling Out redirects here. For the album by Peter Bjorn and John, see Falling Out (album)'' ''White Pepper'' is Ween's seventh full-length album, and the last album they would release on Elektra Records. It was released on May 2, 2000. ''White Pepper'' is one of Ween's more polished albums. Songs like "Even If You Don't" feature powerful, radio-friendly production and musicianship. Ween's bizarre sense of humour is still intact (such as on the Steely Dan send-up "Pandy Fackler") and their hard rock roots still show as seen on "Stroker Ace" and "The Grobe", but for the most part, Ween play the album much more subdued than usual, using pop (especially Beatles-based pop) and AM radio staples for its inspiration. Its title is said to be a tip of the hat to two Beatles albums, ''Sgt. Peppers'' and ''The White Album.'' The band helped promote the album by performing "Exactly Where I'm At" on the ''Late Show with David Letterman''. The track "Even If You Don't" was made into a music video and directed by Trey Parker and Matt Stone of ''South Park'' fame. According to Dean Ween (Mickey Melchiondo), he and Gene Ween (Aaron Freeman) are good friends of Parker and Stone, and Melchiondo has even referred to them (Parker and Stone) as kindred spirits.
[edit] About White Pepper
Pepper is a spice native to India. White pepper comes from the berries of the pepper plant. The berries are allowed to fully ripen on the vine before they are picked and dried and the black outer husk removed.
White pepper is less pungent, considered as hot as black pepper by some, and slightly musky. They go well in sauces, light colored meats, and soups.
