The Residents' album <i>Duck Stab</i>. Available here on LP and CD.

Sandwiched in between Third Reich and Roll, Eskimo, and The Commercial Album, Duck Stab/Buster and Glen from 1978 hasn't always received the fanfare of other late-'70s Residents material. It's one of the few that isn't a concept album and probably the least experimental of the bunch. Still, it's quintessential Residents' rock - which is to say, it's like nothing else on the planet. Few of the songs last longer than a couple of minutes, and only a few instruments can be heard at any given time. Rather than relying on guitars, the Residents stick to the relatively primitive synthesizers and electronic gadgets of their time.
