Quebec is the eighth studio album by the American rock band Ween, released on August 5, 2003, on Sanctuary Records. It was the first album released after the band's contract with Elektra expired, and marked its return to independent labels.
Recorded during a period of strife in the band members' personal lives, Quebec was described by Dean Ween as a "very negative" album that takes on a darker tone compared to the band's prior work. Josh Freese performed the drums on the album, stepping in for Claude Coleman Jr. as he was recovering from a near-fatal car crash in 2002. Freese also played with the band on tour during this time, including during a series of benefit concerts for Coleman at New York City's Bowery Ballroom on October 7 and 8, 2002.[1]
The album cover is an edited version of the packaging for the game Thorns from the 3M Paper Games series with the band superimposed on it.[2]
