• THE RESIDENTS PRESENT THEIR BRAND-NEW STUDIO ALBUM.

• RECORDED WITH THE SAN FRANCISCO CONSERVATORY OF MUSIC AND PRODUCER/CONDUCTOR EDWIN OUTWATER.

• FEATURING A THREE ACT TALE – MEET MAGGOT, MARK AND DOCTOR ANASTASIA DARK.

• GATEFOLD PACKAGING WITH LIBRETTO BOOKLET.

Over two years in the making, the brand-new studio album from The Residents featuring the story of Maggot and Mark – two young heavy metal fans – and the mysterious Doctor Anastasia Dark, a disgraced visionary who offers those who need it THE GIFT.

Veering from blissed out electronica to thrash metal as only The Residents can, and produced with the San Francisco Conservatory Of Music alongside several familiar guests and collaborators, ‘Doctor Dark’ is the latest masterpiece of storytelling from San Francisco’s weirdest beat combo.

“The Buddha said that life is misery. For the terminally ill, dying in pain, life is misery compounded - but what comes next? Is there a heaven, a nirvana, a paradise with 72 virgins for every martyr? No one knows, but what is known is that nothing makes humans more uncomfortable than death - the ultimate unknown, the other side of zero, the everlasting void. But maybe death is nothing more than a warm feeling, after a lifetime of whatever misery we choose to embrace, suggesting that nothing is quite so satisfying as one more dip into a lovely river, endlessly flowing into forever. Maybe it is possible to die happily ever after…….” – The Residents
