After Eskimo was released The Residents responded to the furor of fuss and praise it generated by taking various bits out of the album and re-working them to a disco parody of the original. The band then took over San Francisco's largest disco hall and held a release party featuring "weird" and "new" music. To celebrate the 40th anniversary of Eskimo, The Residents decided to present the album in a unique and collaborative way. Spanning two LPs and one CD, Eskimo (Deconstructed) is a collection of over 70 individual musical elements, chants, loops and sound effects recorded on location by the group in the mid-late 1970s. This was offered not only to give fans an opportunity to "walk around inside a masterpiece, the viewing angles almost infinite," but also to rearrange and and re-interpret the album on their own. In many ways this release is an extension of the I AM A RESIDENT project.
