Intermission: Extraneous Music From The Residents' Mole Show
Intermission: Extraneous Music from the Residents' Mole Show is an EP by The Residents, released in 1982. It featured music from the opening, closing and intermission portions of the Mole Show. It was the first in a line of albums that would bear the warning that it was not part three of the Mole Trilogy. The infant on the cover is Jana Flynn, daughter of The Residents' spokesperson and manager Homer Flynn.
All the songs from this EP were issued as bonus tracks on the original 1987 CD release of Mark of the Mole.
Punk band NoMeansNo covered "Would We Be Alive?" twice: once on an EP of the same name, then again on their In the Fishtank EP.

Famous quotes containing the words extraneous, music, mole and/or show:
“In contrast to the flux and muddle of life, art is clarity and enduring presence. In the stream of life, few things are perceived clearly because few things stay put. Every mood or emotion is mixed or diluted by contrary and extraneous elements. The clarity of art—the precise evocation of mood in the novel, or of summer twilight in a painting—is like waking to a bright landscape after a long fitful slumber, or the fragrance of chicken soup after a week of head cold.”
—Yi-Fu Tuan (b. 1930)
“The manner in which Americans “consume” music has a lot to do with leaving it on their coffee tables, or using it as wallpaper for their lifestyles, like the score of a movie—it’s consumed that way without any regard for how and why it’s made.”
—Frank Zappa (1940–1994)
“For like a mole I journey in the dark,
A-travelling along the underground”
—John Davidson (1857–1909)
“In law, what plea so tainted and corrupt
But, being seasoned with a gracious voice,
Obscures the show of evil?”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
