This is definitely the Residents album to start with if you're new to the group. It's a parody of popular music, with 40 "commercial friendly" condensed one minute songs. The songs are all great due to unique arrangements and great sounding synthesizers. Even non-fans should check this one out...it's really an interesting and great listen.
