Performer: Devo
Distributor: MSI Music Distribution Notes: This single-CD double release combines Devo's 1979 debut album with the later release DEVO LIVE, featuring live versions of "Whip It," "Be Stiff," and many more. Q: Are We Not Men? A: We Are Devo/Devo Live combines the group's first album plus their 1981 concert album on one compact disc, making it a good bargain for serious fans. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine
They'll forever be known for their infamous flowerpot hats, but more importantly, Devo was one of the architects of American new wave in the late 1970s and early '80s, whether spastically deconstructing the Stones' "Satisfaction" or churning out irresistible synth hooks. Their social satire added a valuable element of irony missing from many other groups of the era. Devo paved the way for both synth-pop and geek-rock. Singer Mark Mothersbaugh went on to become a successful film composer, but the group engaged in periodic reunions over the years.
