These are for you. :)


The Residents - Walter Westinghouse

The Residents - Birthday Boy

Well, it's now clear to me where Primus get their vibe from. And I love Primus.
I like it.
That first track reminded me a lot of this by Ohgr.

Seems The Residents influence is extremely far reaching.

RIP Hardy Fox!

Today saw the loss (for real this time) of Hardy Fox, the pioneering artist from The Residents. We look back on the irreverent, surrealist work the band produced and Fox as enigmatic anonymous multimedia ringleader, projecting mystery to the very end.

To borrow a phrase from Mark Twain, the rumors of Hardy Fox’s death have been greatly self-exaggerated. Early this year, Fox posted a “1945-2018” epitaph on his website when revealing the diagnosis of an undefined terminal illness. The epitaph was later taken down. Now, the band and loved ones confirmed Fox passed away earlier today.

“As a child I would always describe my nightmares to my mother by banging on the piano and talking in strange voices.”
Charles Bobuck (aka Hardy Fox), This is for Readers (2016)

The sheer overwhelming volume of Residents and Charles Bobuck releases makes it difficult to point to where to start in looking at Fox’s legacy, not to mention Fox’s work is far more often geared toward album rather than cherry-picked “best of” format.

Inner Space (With Molly Harvey)

When I think about my father
I see a silver ship
Sailing on the oceans of Nirvana

When I think about my father
on his sad and lonely trip
I wonder if he misses me and mama

When I think about my father
I see someone who's sick
of breathing life into a lost persona

When I went to see my father
I was his only friend
No one knew he was a lonely soldier
When I went to see my father
he was bitter at the end
when the wind was blowing so much bolder
I went to see my father
who was dying to pretend
The emptiness of like would soon be full of him

I went to see my father growing colder
