Turned me on to the band
8 February 2019
Awesome documentary- really well done, regardless of what the subject matter is. Just a quality film. It happens that while I've been in the know of many great bands before my time on Earth (I was born in the 80's) and a big fan of bands that are directly influenced by the Residents (Primus), I have never knowingly heard their music until watching this documentary. It has since spun me into YouTube concert footage binging, and reading about their history and listening to some of their more well-received records from the late 70's. Something that I thought was really fascinating was that the band members are interviewed throughout the documentary, but older now and under the pretense that they are just old associates/friends of the band. A documentary so focused on the anonymity of the band members, meanwhile they constantly appear onscreen discussing their history in third person, as if they were just observers who were close to the group. So cool.
