How was this allowed?
Allowed by who? The residents ran Ralph Records, didn't they?

It's an album you have to have click, more so than most albums (even compared to others Residents albums)
Once you get it it's insanely great, though still very technically flawed obviously (which honestly is part of the concept)
MY BABY DOES THE HANKY PANKY

I guess I mean how did it not cause a big stink what with putting Dick Clark in a nazi uniform surrounded by little Hitlers and swastikas all over
I know it was censored in Germany though
>>69934216
cuz there have been tons of punk records over the years that used hitler in some way on the cover. its not really a big deal. i think it would only bug people it if was some top40 album or something
Was Hitler really a vegetarian? Might explain why he hated black people and their love for fried chicken.
>>69934216
It wasn't like this was being shoved in peoples' faces. If a pop star came out with that cover it would probably be really criticized. I'm sure some fans criticized it, even though it doesn't look to be a pro-national socialist cover.

I used to be a vegetarian so I got this a lot when people would try to talk shit. He wasn't a vegetarian, but his doctor advised him to be a vegetarian for health reasons. This morphed into a silly way to mock vegetarians (or hitler I guess, in this case) when they argue the moral superiority of vegetarianism.
One of their early demo tapes was titled 'Baby Sex' and it had literally had a cp drawing on the artwork

>"The original cover art for the tape box was a silk-screened copy of an old photo depicting a woman fellating a small child. (Considered artistically rude at that time, it would be viewed as child pornography today)."

what in the actual fuck
>>69934719
lol. well thats a thing i learned today...
>>69933797
>allowed
Fuck you. Once you start dictating what is and isn't "allowed" in art, you might as well be one of the Nazis that you're bitching about. Art is about freedom of expression. If it triggers you, don't look at it.

I didn't say it shouldn't be allowed
I was wondering how it didn't cause a shitstorm
but yeah I guess The Residents were never popular enough to warrant a reaction
>>69934719
Nice.
Aren't the residents postmodern communists? I sssume because it's satirical they could get away with it

There's an uncensored cover on a stupid-expensive bootleg cd-r of this if anyone wants to buy it and make a scan of it

A lot of people dismiss this album as being nothing more than a covers album or tribute record but it's still one of my favorites by The Residents.
They just wanted to kick out the jams and get it on.
