        			Arguably the most disturbing of the Residents' numerous darkly amusing albums, Wormwood consists of 18 songs (bookended by the instrumentals "In the Beginning" and "Revelation") sung by the protagonists of Old Testament tales, featuring the Israelite god Yahweh in a capricious and vengeful mood. "Bleeding is better than breathing to God," complains the daughter of Jephthah in "Burn Baby Burn," a sentiment echoed by Abraham (whom God commands to sacrifice his son to prove his faith) in "Kill Him!" Lot sleeps with his daughters, Salome gets a head, Onan spills his seed, and a mysterious disconnected finger appears in increasingly outlandish tales conveyed by means of theatrical vocals and melodramatically overwrought keyboards. Don't believe their veracity? "Look it up!" suggest the Residents, who conveniently provide chapter and verse for each and every story. --Richard Gehr

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    You will love this album. Period.
  

*by C***R on April 9, 2019*









  
  
    What I whole heartedly love about this album is where the avant garde group reaps their inspiration. From the art work, to the pageantry of the live show, Wormwood is one of the greatest musical performances for your ear tongues to lap up.

    Plan on having your head turned inside out in a biblical way.
  


### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Carves Wormholes in the Word of God!
  

*by S***N on May 21, 2009*









  
  
    No doubt, when The Residents take on any topic in their music and art, the end product will always be dark and disturbing!  That is what we expect them to do!  They carved Elvis "a new one" in 'The King And Eye,' and they deconstructed The Beatles and the 60's Top Fourty in 'The Third Reich and Roll.'  But what could they do with "godswordthebible?"  This album is the result!Far darker than the book "Welcome to Jesusland," The Residents basicly do the same thing:  Present us with "scripture" that the organs of the popular Theology rarely do... present us with darker and more disturbing aspects of "the word of god."And boy, do they pick doozies to present here! Some may be offended by their topics, revelations and attitudes on so called "Holy Scripture," yet in every song they provide reference to the particular scripture and verse that they mock and ridicule!Before you judge this album as "the stupidest thing you ever heard," look up the Scriptural references to their art.  Then judge for yourself, if you dare! Their commentary on "Holy Scripture" stupid?  Indeed!  The Residents merely provide commentary and reference to what Frank Zappa said all along!
