Description

President of the Cryptic Corporation and long time manager of The Residents Homer Flynn joins Chris and Aaron once again to discuss Resident’s 1980 release, Goosebump.

The Resident’s Historical site describes Goosebump thusly:

“The Residents had long planned to produce a children’s record — of sorts. Goosebump is a collection of Mother Goose rhymes set to music with all of the “original sinister overtones” left in place. They teamed up with their long-time collaborator Snakefinger and recorded the songs using only musical instruments bought at Toys-R-Us. Although children’s toys were used to produce the music, The Residents’ grown-up toys were used afterwards in the mixing of the recording.”

Homer gives Chris and Aaron some background on both the “Diskomo” single and “Goosebump,” along with an update on what the eyeballed ones are up to now. Followed by Chris and Aaron's thoughts on the EP.
