jocko homo

good song

correct

man the r u experienced video is fucing crazy. ive never sen that, thanks.

Heard an interview w/ Mark on NPR the other day. When asked what music he listened to, he said he listened to a lot, but only specifically referenced Aphex.

You churrens should get the Devo Live 1980 DVD/CD (2x sided) -- it's quite awesome. Swelling Itching Brain.

Mechanical Man, Jocko Homo are great tunes. Devo is the shit yo

The official band of the Church of the Subgenius

FUCK YEAH! I FOUND A DEVO THREAD!

When I was a really little kid (in the very early 80s), my older cousin was OBSESSED with Devo. On holidays, he would sit the whole family down around the TV and make us watch those old Devo films from the 70s. That planted a seed that would later grow in my brain.

They are the best.

They just are.

My favorite shit is from the "Hardcore Vol 1" sessions. Fucking sublime.

<- Amazing song!

massive bump

bump seconded

did anybody listen to DEV2.0? I can't tell if it's funny or lame. they changed all the lyrics so now 'uncontrollable urge' is about eating snacks between meals instead of touching yourself. funny gag or money grab?

that song about your turd

My mom and aunt got to see them play at their highschool in the 80's... I've loved Devo since I was little... such a fun/talented band.

Epic Chewn.

*edit* this thread may need to be moved, btw

Devo are fucking sick. In this house, we recently got the Now It Can Be Told live album on vinyl and I'm astounded at what a tight, polished live band they were.

Also, Devo are sick and girls love it when you put them on a compilation CD.

I can't believe I traded my vinyl copies of Hardcore Devo.

I also enjoy Mark Mothersbaugh's drawing lessons.

No. Similar in ways, but very different overall.

I woke up today to Whip It playing on the radio and its been in my head pretty much since.

One of my life's regrets is not going to that Q/A show in NYC.

What was I thinking?
