 ***Meet The Third Reich*** is a two-disc bootleg CD-R compilation containing unreleased material by The Residents, consisting entirely of outtakes and unfinished mixes from the *Meet The Residents* and *Third Reich 'n Roll* sessions, recorded between 1973 and 1975. It is notable for containing instrumentals of many tracks from *Meet The Residents*, as well as the otherwise unheard mixes of *The Third Reich 'n Roll* cover tracks, featuring the original versions of the songs remaining in the mix.

A single CD-R compilation titled ***Meet The Residents*** ***Studio Outtakes*** (featuring the *Meet The Residents* tracks with additional tracks from the group's soundtrack to the TV series *Pee-wee's Playhouse*) began circulating in 2015. A selection of (mostly) the *Third Reich 'n Roll* tracks have also circulated on the internet under the title ***Third Reich Sessions***; this version of the bootleg appears to be derived from the earlier CD-R compilation. Another version of the *Third Reich Sessions* has circulated with shorter edits of "Nothin' Yet" and "Boots".

Around 2019, Cherry Red Records product manager Richard Anderson discussed *Meet The Third Reich* with The Residents, who were "of the opinion" that much of the material had been faked and was not actually the group's work, noting "huge variations in record quality, etc."; however the bootlegs do contain previously unheard material (such as the outtake "Inka Don't Dry") which would later be released officially on the 2018 pREServed edition of *Meet The Residents*.
