In honor of Ween being in Minneapolis tonight at Surly Festival Field, let’s celebrate Dean and Gene’s many, many vocal styles. The band is no stranger to adding digital effects or finding other ways to change their vocals, so today is about the canon of musicians not afraid to get a little weird.

Think about all the effects out there. Yes, there’s the vocoder, echo, distortion, and Autotune. But maybe it’s drinking some helium out of a balloon, singing while gargling, or twisting up the vocal cords to embody a different character. Everybody’s welcome during today’s coffee break.

For today’s 9:30 Coffee Break, which songs with creative vocal effects do you want to hear?
