Hey bc1991
I was looking in on this, and was wondering what residents albums you would recommend i already own eskimo and was considering getting a few more

[bc1991]

[banana brother]

Thanks again, Commercial Album sounds especially interesting. I heard their thought behind it was that the average pop song is 3 minutes, but is made up of only chorus and verse each repeated 3 times they realized that if you cut out the repetition then the song is really only 1 minute long.

[bc1991]

Yes exactly!!
