Monday Gutenberg: The Residents - The Voice of Midnight

A deeper look into art, the way ol’ Jo’ would have wanted it: via HTML and digital photos.

Artist: The Residents
Release: The Voice of Midnight
Label: Mute
Designer: ???
Release Date: October 23, 2007

Keeping right in line with their 40+ years of weirdness comes a concept album from The Residents with artwork equally as weird. The story is about a boy who thinks the Sandman is after him…so basically kind of like every child in existence, in one form or another. For a while I used to think Freddy Kreuger was after me, then I realized that those movies are actually more funny than scary.

The outside is a smooth matte hardcover, much like a book.

The inside was layed out like a book, with the lyrics acting as the story. It alternated between blue-themed artwork and earth tone artwork.
