I'm glad somebody else said what I was thinking. Both have great songwriting duos. Ween songs vary stylistically in the same way that Beatles songs did. However, I'd say the Beatles were a lot more influential than Ween is.

So in that aspect, I agree with the comparison of SY to the Beatles. Both are widely influential bands which pushed and melted the boundaries of rock, pop, and experimentalism and opened the ears of a generation.
