''White Pepper'' is the seventh studio album by American AlternativeRock band Music/{{Ween}}, and it is the follow-up to their acclaimed album, ''Music/TheMollusk''. Continuing the LighterAndSofter direction that was hinted by ''The Mollusk'', the album mainly takes inspiration from 60s and 70s pop and psychedelia, although it still contains the GenreRoulette and juvenile humor seen in their previous albums. It was also their last album released on Creator/ElektraRecords.
Upon release, ''White Pepper'' received a tepid response from fans and critics, most of whom were concerned that Ween were slowly going mainstream and [[SellOut selling out]]. However, the album's reputation grew over time, and it is commonly viewed by fans and critics as one of their best albums.
!!Let's begin with the tropes in front:
* LyricalDissonance: "Even If You Don't" is a bouncy pop tune about a person who is taking care of a recovering addict.
* MinimalisticCoverArt: The album cover merely shows the outline of a white bell pepper against a white background, similar to its inspiration, ''[[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pepper_No._30 Pepper No. 30'']] by Edward Weston.
* ShoutOut: The album cover is similar in style to ''Pepper No. 30'' by photographer Edward Weston, and the title is a nod to two of Music/TheBeatles' most famous albums, ''Music/TheWhiteAlbum'' and Music/SgtPeppersLonelyHeartsClubBand''.
