God In 3 Persons is considered one of the masterworks by The Residents, but I’ve recently noticed how divisive this album is with the fan base. Many consider it the beginning of the renaissance of the band and others consider it the beginning of the slow grudge that is the modern era. In my humble opinion, G3P is honestly one of the best things the residents have done. But i can get if people find it tedious, for starters the album is basically a long poem set to music. Many get bored after “Hard And Tenderly” due to it being the last song with a bit of rhythm according to the G3P haters. Another reason i see is that it is really long, the album was the first album meant for cd, so they were experimenting with the time limits so it resulted in an hour long album.
Ignoring all of this, can we all come to an agreement that even if we don’t like it or love it to bits, that it was an important album in the resident discography.
Anyways, what’s your opinion on the album?
