  • Description

    • THE RESIDENTS’ SEMINAL FOURTH ALBUM, PLUS THE BRAND NEW ‘SHITTY ROCK ‘N’ ROLL’ RDX MIX TAKEN FROM THE ORIGINAL MULTI-TRACK TAPES.

    • ALL REMASTERED FROM THE ORIGINAL TAPES.
    • PRODUCED WITH THE RESIDENTS AND THE CRYPTIC CORPORATION.
    • THE FOURTH IN A SERIES OF 2LP VINYL RE-ISSUES OF THE RESIDENTS’ CLASSIC 70S ALBUMS.

    Formed in the early 1970s, The Residents have now been charting a unique path through the musical landscape for 50 years. In celebration of that remarkable and unlikely anniversary, we present an expanded vinyl reissue of the classic 1978 album ‘Duck Stab/ Buster & Glen’.

    Compiling the legendary ‘Duck Stab!’ EP with another side of similarly themed ditties, The Residents’ produced one of their best-loved works during the punk rock explosion of 1978 - the album has remained a cornerstone of their remarkable body of work ever since; and has recently been featured heavily on the band’s ‘Dog Stab!’ tour. This expanded edition includes the ‘Shitty Rock ‘N Roll’ RDX suite (a reworked and remixed suite produced by The Residents using the album’s original multitrack tapes) alongside related bonus tracks, all packaged within the album’s long out of print original sleeve artwork.

    Produced with The Cryptic Corporation, remastered by Scott Colburn and complete with insightful new sleevenotes, this set builds upon The Residents’ ongoing pREServed reissue project, which will continue into 2023 and beyond.

    The Residents will be performing ‘Duck Stab!’ material alongside other classic cuts across the USA throughout the Spring – check residents.com for details.
