Our Take

The Residents have always been a band shrouded in mystery and eccentricity, and their latest album, "Wormwood", is no exception. Diving into this avant-garde circus of sound is like taking a ride on a psychedelic rollercoaster through a surreal carnival.

From the moment the opening track, "Gnossienne No. 3", kicks in with its haunting piano melody and distorted vocals, you know you're in for a wild ride. The album weaves its way through a range of genres, from industrial to experimental to downright bizarre, all while keeping you on the edge of your seat.

Tracks like "Ship of Fools" and "Bournvile" showcase The Residents' ability to create a sonic landscape that is both unsettling and captivating. The use of unconventional instruments and distorted vocals only add to the overall sense of unease that permeates the album.

But don't let the weirdness deter you - there are moments of beauty and even humour scattered throughout "Wormwood". The Residents have crafted an album that is as thought-provoking as it is entertaining, leaving you wanting to go back for another spin on their twisted musical merry-go-round.

In conclusion, "Wormwood" is a testament to The Residents' ongoing commitment to pushing the boundaries of music and challenging the listener. Strap in, hold on tight, and prepare to be taken on a journey like no other.
