The Residents have tackled this book in all its complexity without the responsibility of the scholar. Though many months have gone into research, the intent of the music and lyrics remain within the realm of the inspired poet. The stories and ideas represented here are definitely in the Bible. The desire is to neither vilify nor sanctify the book, but to allow it to be humanized. For the Bible to be looked upon as spiritually uplifting is good and useful, but that view overlooks the Bible's abundant images of plague, torture, and cruelty. It is this dichotomy that gives balance and substance to the book. Without both, the dark and the light, there is no measure of either, only the bland reassurances that pass for organized religion today. ## Images ![Wormwood - Image 1](https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/91-MPfRgMLL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ You will love this album. Period. *by C***R on Reviewed in the United States 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. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Five Stars *by S***Z on Reviewed in the United States on October 24, 2017* Plan on having your head turned inside out in a biblical way. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Carves Wormholes in the Word of God! *by S***N on Reviewed in the United States 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! --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/38745604-wormwood](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/38745604-wormwood) --- *Product available on Desertcart Great Britain* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-04-29*
