The Residents' albums generally fall into two categories: deconstructions of Western popular music, and complex conceptual pieces composed around a theme, theory or plot. In 2017, Hardy Fox, long known to be associated with the Residents, identified himself as the band's co-founder and primary composer he died in 2018. In public, they appear silent and costumed, often wearing eyeball helmets, top hats and tails-a costume now recognized as their signature iconography. Much speculation and rumor has focused on this aspect of the group. Throughout the group's existence, the individual members have ostensibly attempted to work anonymously, preferring to have attention focused on their art. They founded Ralph Records, a record label focusing on avant-garde music, in 1972. Pioneers in exploring the potential of CD-ROM and similar technologies, the Residents have won several awards for their multimedia projects. They have undertaken seven major world tours and scored multiple films. Since their first official release, Meet the Residents (1974), they have released over 60 albums, numerous music videos and short films, three CD-ROM projects, and ten DVDs. The Residents are an American art collective best known for their avant-garde music and multimedia works.
