Okay, by now everyone is well aware of The Residents' newest MEGAHIT DIE! DIE! DIE! with guest vocal by the one and only Black Francis, BUT HEY!!!... we're not done yet! Two years ago, The Residents invited everyone to join the act with the I AM A RESIDENT! project. Okay, are you still A RESIDENT? Then prove it!
Here is a link to the DIE! DIE! DIE! video...

Play it on your phone or your computer or your toaster oven and DANCE! DANCE! DANCE! Get someone to shoot video of you DANCING YOUR ASS OFF, then upload it to YouTube WITH THE HASHTAG #IAMSTILLARESIDENT. We will download all those videos and re-edit the original DIE! DIE! DIE! video inserting you DANCING FOOLS in the process. Oh yeah, one rule... WEAR A MASK!!!! You can't be a Resident without a mask!
Okay, this EXTRAVAGANZA only lasts for ONE WEEK, so DANCE, FOOLS DANCE!!!!
(Note: Sadly not every video will be included in the DIE! DIE! DIE! mashup, but you probably know that already.)
Bury My Bone video[]
Friday, June 26 2020, 10:49am
The Residents release their second single "Bury My Bone" today, a psychedelic-rock anthem that takes Alvin Snow's (a.k.a. Dying' Dog) bluesy humdinger of a tune into the woods to never return to the same song again. The Residents imprint a kaleidoscopic rendition of the longtime bluesman's classic with slaying guitar lines and techno-drums pushing our minds to the edges of reality. Dangerous Minds premieres the music video for "Bury My Bone" from acclaimed video artist and long time Residents' collaborator, John Sanborn. To view the video exclusively released today with Dangerous Minds, please see the link below.
