Vinyl reissue of The Residents' classic debut originally released on Ralph Records in 1974. The whole, bizarre Residents trip started here (at least officially)! Mixing everything from Frank Zappa and Captain Beefheart to Raymond Scott and Sun Ra.
This record was originally recorded and stored away- inspired by the "theory of obscurity" and meant to be heard only by the members of The Residents themselves. Eventually, their label found the hidden album and released it.
Smithereens marks Joji's first full-length since Nectar in 2020. He delivers his characteristically melancholic yet powerful vocals on tracks like "Die For You," a sober, morning-after remembrance of a former love.
