It's got a couple of residents on the quarter panels, but otherwise my car is in pristine condition.

An avant-garde band that started in the 70s and continues to record and tour today. They keep their identities secret by wearing masks onstage and in all their publicity, and have never released their names to the public. The main elements of the Residents' music are the highly experimental instrumentation and production, distorted vocals, heavy repetition and a favoring of weirdness over displaying any actual musical talent, of which they may very well have none.
"Man, those eyeball masks the Residents wear are hella tight. Do you think they'll tour with Renaldo and the Loaf again soon?"

The best band you’ve never heard about.
_The Residents_ are an _American_ art collective best known for their avant-garde music and multimedia works. Since their first official release, Meet the Residents, the group has released over sixty albums, numerous _music_ videos and short films, three CD-ROM projects, and ten DVDs. Throughout the group's existence, the individual members have ostensibly attempted to operate under anonymity, preferring instead to have attention focused on their art _output_. Much outside speculation and rumor has focused on this aspect of the group. In public, the group appears silent and costumed, often wearing _eyeball_ helmets, top hats and tails—a long-lasting costume now recognized as its signature iconography. 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.

“There are a lotta cats that just want to get in there and they roll with the homies. And they really don’t want to be a part of nuthin’. They ain’t from no neighborhood. They might be in there for meth or crack, bogus credit cards or checks or whatever. They just want to fly under the radar. They are just gonna be considered Resident South Siders.”

A video game series started by Capcom in 1996. The first game took place in a ficticious place called Raccoon City where reports of canibalistic murders were taking place in the mountain area. The police search and rescue sqaud, S.T.A.R.S. is sent in to investigate these murders, but stumbles upon an estate out in the woods that holds a deadly secret. The city's biggest corperation, UMBRELLA, had been producing bioweapons. A leak occured when the founder of the progenitor virus, Dr. Marcus, had been ressurected by his leach-like test subjects and set forth to have his revenge on UMBRELLA and Spencer for his assasination. In the first game, you play as either Chris Redfield or Jill Valentine of the S.T.A.R.S. and set out to expose UMBRELLA, while attempting to survive the zombies at the same time.
There were many sequals to follow the game's success:
Resident Evil 0 (Playing as Rebecca Chambers and Billy Coen)
Resident Evil: REmake (Playing as Chris Redfield or Jill Valentine)
Resident Evil 2 (Playing as Claire Redfield or Leon Kennedy)
Resident Evil 3: Nemesis (Playing as Jill Valentine)
Resident Evil: Code Veronica (Playing as Claire and Chris Redfield)
Resident Evil 4 (Playing as Leon Kennedy)
There have also been many spin offs to the series, such as the Gun Survivor series and Dead Aim, Resident Evil Gaiden and Resident Evil: Outbreak (or RE: Online).
Although the game took a decline after the REmake, being unable to compete with other survival horror games such as the Silent Hill franchise, the game has recently re-invented itself with the 4th installment of the series; Resident Evil 4 for the Gamecube and PS2.
There has also been a teaser for the 5th game leaked on the internet, which shows the return of Chris Redfield to the series.
