ALIENO DEBOOTES - UNCONVENTIONAL RESIDENTS II

  • alieno debootes: unconventional residents II
        (2023, cd, austria, klanggalerie)
What makes The Residents sound as The Residents?
Is it the simple keyboard / synthesizer melody lines? The recognizable vocals? Is it the fact that it all sounds deconstructed? Stripped down to the essence?

Alieno deBootes (Alessandro Pizzin) has the answer. He recently released the second volume of "Unconventional Residents", the sequel to the 2022 album.

On "Unconventional Residents", most of the pieces are by The Eyeballed Ones. Performed as a rock band, including solo spots for the participating musicians.
The arrangements are fabulous and the sound is great.
And I came across quite a number of familiar names: Roberto Marchetto (Lagunable), Franco Moruzzi (I Fratelli Di Mascia aka De Break A Dabrians, Ruins), Christophe Godin (Mörglbl), Dave Newhouse (The Muffins), Ken Field (Birdsongs Of The Mesozoic),...

This is great ! It swings. It rocks. And it's funny.
I love it.

Essential listening. And not only for Eyeball Buddies.
