THE RESIDENTS: ICKY FLIX [IMPORT]

Details

• Genre: Music
• Plot: Near the end of the so-called 'millennium,' someone suggested that the Residents release a DVD compilation of their many award-winning music videos. The anonymous group's reponse was swift and unanimous: 'YUKKKK!!! HOW ICKY!'; ; More specifically, Mr. Skull, sometimes known as the Black Hole of the group, replied, 'I'd rather eat dog doo and die!' It seems that the group saw the idea of creating a collection of their visual work, some of it almost 30 years old, as a task more fitting to bean counters than semi-famous artistes. But then Mr. Blue, a less volatile type, remarked, 'But with a DVD we could record all the music again and let people have a choice of which soundtrack to play.' 'Hmmm...,' replied the contrary Skull. 'That would completely enrage our fans, giving them absolutely nothing to complain about. Let's do it!'; ; So they did. And in the process, the Residents, with the help of their friends, crammed the disc full of newly created material: 4 never-before-seen music videos, video versions of their CD-ROMs, and a newly restored edit of Vileness Fats, their first-ever video 'experiment'--and that's in addition to recording new music for the 100 minute long disc. As usual, the Residents have created a great version of an icky idea: The Residents' Icky Flix.; ; Track listing: ; 1. The Third Reich 'n' Roll; 2. Constantinople; 3. One Minute Movies; 4.
