5 stars Alien experimental rock operetta

This is genuinely one of the best and most original albums ever released. I've never heard anything like it. Before or after. The album has a dreamy feel, strange instrumentation, loose composition, motifs, dissonance, abstract vocals, fascinating story, weird concept (if any???). It's in my opinion The Residents' most mature work. It's a very moving album and a very rewarding listen. It makes me feel emotions that I can't explain.

I found it once on Youtube, didn't like it, but the first song intrigued me, 10 seconds were enough to draw me in. I kept coming back to it. Again, and again, and again... I keep coming back to this record and it gets better each time. Now it's an album I feel comfortable saying that it's my favourite. And it's one of the best albums EVER made.

The aching And the breaking Are the making Of the soul.
