Our Take

Ah, The Residents. The enigmatic group that has been confounding and delighting audiences for decades. Their debut album, Meet The Residents, is a cacophony of sound that defies categorisation - and that's exactly why we love it.

The 2CD Preserved Edition of Meet The Residents gives us a glimpse into the band's creative process, with demos, outtakes, and alternate versions of the songs that made the original album so iconic. It's a rare treat for fans, and a must-have for anyone interested in the weird and wonderful world of The Residents.

From the discordant opening track "Boots" to the hauntingly beautiful "N-Er-Gee (Crisis Blues)", this album is a journey through the minds of some of the most innovative musicians of our time. The Residents have always pushed the boundaries of what is possible in music, and Meet The Residents is a prime example of their fearless experimentation.

So, put on your eyeball mask, grab your top hat, and dive into the twisted genius of The Residents with this fantastic reissue. Whether you're a die-hard fan or a newcomer to their strange and wonderful universe, Meet The Residents: 2CD Preserved Edition is a must-listen for anyone who loves music that challenges, surprises, and delights in equal measure.
