But you probably already knew that.Produced with The Cryptic Corporation using archival tapes supplied by The Residents themselves, this package explores and expands the classic 1979 album - the record which brought The Residents to a wider, international audience.

Look out for the 'Commercial Album' 2CD pREServed set, and a forthcoming 'Mole Trilogy' box set.
