condition (record/cover): VG+ (one mark producing a soft click for 2') / EX- (bumped corner) Black vinyl. Includes badge. The Residents' concept album exploring the mysteries of Fatima and religious visions. The music combines their sophisticated electronic experimentation with more organic instrumentation than usual, creating genuinely atmospheric pieces that suggest mystery and spirituality without explaining or resolving anything. The conceptual framework is typical Residents - taking genuinely obscure subject matter and building elaborate audio world around it. This version includes promotional badge, making it the complete package as originally released. Shows the band's continued creative ambition and conceptual rigor well into the 90s, refusing to repeat themselves or rest on established approaches.
