The all-new mash-up album concept from san francisco’s whacked-out eyeball
collective. Exclusive retail edition based on the successful and unique pledge
campaign. Brand new
versions created by fans and mutated and collaged by the residents. Exclusive
disc two material – stand alone cover version highlights! The Residents, long
known as the world’s
most mysterious and reclusive band, announce a new chapter in their lengthy and
legendary career – not just a new album but a completely new concept: I AM
A RESIDENT! Having invited fans to record cover versions of their songs via
Pledge Music, the group have reworked that material into the ultimate Residents
mashup, editing, looping and over-dubbing to create something entirely new. Hear
The Residents reinterpret their fans’ interpretations, creating layer upon
layer of music that is both hauntingly familiar and achingly wrong at the same
time. I AM A RESIDENT! is both original and completely unexpected. Is this
revenge for ‘The
Third Reich ‘n Roll’? Or Is it The Real Residents?
