'Tweedles' is the follow up to 2005's 'Animal Lover'. In the fall of 2005 The Residents were made an offer: a young gentleman in Romania had built himself a state of the art recording studio and had the wild dream of asking his favourite band, THE RESIDENTS to try it out. As it happened, their own studio was undergoing an upgrade could not be used for a year. So 'Tweedles' was inspired by The Residents trip to Bucharest where they travelled to a town called Hunedoara (also known as Transylvania) to record. This album features impromptu recordings of street musicians, church bells, a small travelling circus, and the film orchestra of Bucharest! Focussing less on harmonics and melody than their previous release, 'Animal Lover', the new compositions could be described as a patchwork of new and often exotic textures. For the group, this patchwork was the reflection of an often chaotic, but uniquely immersive experience.
