I'd say that The Residents could be considered experimental pop.

And I'm not gonna lie, I've danced to their music.

Ive heard some of their albums and some were phenomenal while others were kinda meh.

For exmpl i thought tweedles was pretty weak (Though insincere was pretty good) but i liked bunny boy and assorted secrets. Their album with Renaldo and the loaf was pretty good too.

I agree, i saw it recently and luved it. one thing i didn't like though was that they focused too much on their mystique and not enough on their music.

One subject that Residents docs don't cover is the equipment that they use or how they make their music, which I think is really interesting and important. They could do a whole documentary on the evolution of their instrumentation that could end up being fecking incredible.

Do any gearheads know which drum machine they use on this? Recorded in 1972
