Q: Are We Not Men? A: We Are DEVO. is an excellent album.
It's in my top 5 ever
Don't wake the baby up🙏
What most people miss is the irony between the lyrics "I have an uncontrollable urge" and the stage movements and the deliberate lack thereof. Also the use of "random" in it's original meaning, as something lacking a definite plan, purpose, or pattern is completely wrong as this performance is planned down to the second. The recent modern use of random, meaning something that is unexpected or not understood only applies to the young.
It needs to be reiterated a million times that this was performed LIVE. That's unreal.... at one point they're so still, you'd think it was lip-synced. One of the best musical performances and TV ever imo
Devolution
Spud rock! Nice to see that Devo retains their appeal forty years on. Their first four albums were mind blowing back in the late seventies early eighties. Far out stuff! DEVO pairs well with The B-52s, that is, "Rock Lobster" goes well with "Uncontrollable Urge". And another couple of songs from back then that also pair well with DEVO are are Gary Numan "Cars" and Kraftwerk "The Model". But if you want to know what Devo's message is check out "Jocko Homo" and "Mongoloid" from their first album, or "Smart Patrol"/"Mr. DNA" from their second album. Otherwise, check out some of their more popular songs - "Beautiful World", "Whip It", "Girl U Want", "[I Can't Get No] Satisfaction", "Freedom of Choice", "Through Being Cool", and "Working In a Coalmine" among them.
I'd throw just about anything by Oingo Boingo into that list as well.
This is new wave punk. You can also pogo to it, Brad! lol Good job on your dance moves, same as the band.
Devo is late '70s, '80s and early '90s. Check out "Gut Feeling" or "Freedom of Choice" (music video with skaters) next! Also videos for "Turnaround" (Nirvana covered this) , "Through Being Cool", "That's Good" , "Mongoloid", "Girl U Want", "Post-Post Modern Man", "Dr Detroit" (for that movie), etc. Rock N Roll hall of Famers.
Lex loved "Whip It" from them awhile ago, yall should watch the music video for it, , it is funny.
Devo is upbeat, fun, funny, quirky new wave punk like B-52s.
BTW, just seen the thumbnail, with Brads face on 2 of the Devo band members. hilarious lol!
I second Gut Feeling/Slap Your Mammy!
Also check out their latest albums Something For Everybody and Something Else For Everybody! Great return to form!
Fridays was a second rate Saturday Night Live, but they had some fantastic musical guests!
Q Are we not men
A We are Devo
Brilliant album. Fantaticly fun album.
Do you realize how tight these guys were? People didn’t get it at first, as we were coming out of the Eagles, Fleetwood Mac, Doobie Brothers era of laid- back rock.
I was 7 years old when MTV started. I loved it and couldn't turn it off. Of course at that age I didn't delve into bands, I just had fun and I love music. This Devo song is new for me. I really dig it. Thanks Brad, for diving in. We're all learning cool music. 🙂
The launch of MTV is closer in time to the bombing of Pearl Harbor than to today.
@@ChristopherCurtis Wow, mind blowing to think about, interesting. We are gettin old . Yikes! lol
💃💃💃 wiggle wiggle✨✨✨👏👏👏💃😂
PS. That clip is from a late night tv show called Fridays that ran on ABC on Fridays. It was a knock off of Saturday Night Live and it often took risks with the musical artists it hosted. There is some great footage from that show of The Clash bouncing around UA-cam. They let The Clash play three or four songs, iirc. I was just old enough back then that my parents would let me stay up late to watch the show.
Just when Fridays was getting really solid they canned it. The musical acts were top notch.
Plasmatics were another.
You nailed the dancing.... Devo definitely has a frenetic energy to it . I can see me and my Buds moving just like that to it in '79. You should listen to Gates of Steel from Freedom of Choice album. Same high energy Devo tune. Good review.
Let's Pogo.
This song kicks ass! Total punk! Great dance moves! I fucking love the shoes!!
The theme song to Ridiculousness!
Love that song. You might look for the version from Urgh a Music War. They do a lot more of those quirky dance steps.
The 70's was weird. There was lots of really mellow and patriotic type music on the radio. And bombastic stadium rock. That's why punk needed to happen. Which Devo gets lumped into but their concept goes back before punk to like 1971
DEVO is perhaps one of the most creative and underrated bands ever!
this is a video aliens will study after we're all devo'd back into oblivion
Welcome to DEVO-LUTION!
Brad, you understand, that makes you cool,😂 seriously this band DEVO were/ are unique...so much fun😢
You’re right there! 1979! I’ve been a DEVO fan for about 45 years! They have no peers. Check out their other stuff. Cheers from Bridgeport, Connecticut.
Opening song to every episode of Ridiculousness on MTV. Rob is from the same hometown as DEVO!
I liked your dance moves Brad!!
DEVO was a thinking man’s rebellion to the garbage popular music circa 1980. Imagine how novel is was at the time. It’s similar in that sense to the original raw punk that came out in the late 70s.
Don't fear the weird or you're missing out.
Still one of the greatest I've bands I've seen. Brilliant, exciting, great tunes.
He did a play in Ohio state witch had all music you heard and turned it a music great live music I saw Rolling Stones they did a lot live dates
I saw this shit live and I was sold on DEVO for life
I know exactly what you're talking about, Brad. There are certain 80's bands that make me want to do this weird zombie-twitch dance, that's the energy they give off. Devo is one of the main ones.
Brad keeps all the great tunes to himself, come on man share with lex. I remember seeing Devo in Glasgow 1978. Yep, in their yellow boiler suits, amazing show. First album is still brilliant.
Tons of great Devo songs...theyre an excellent live band!!!!!!!!
Devolution is real!
It certainly is here in Scotland! 😼
This is my favorite video of yours so far.
This is one of the greatest song ever... You need to redo this one with your lovely wife! I already know she will love it! ❤
Pure Genius. Love the move's Brad.
Ever join the live streams? Kind minded people like your self with good taste in music are great additions 😁
Greatness
This Song SLAPS and Devo is F*kn Genius! Still are JUST saw them a few mos ago :-D
YES! Devo
Dude, your dance was awesome....and I love that shirt
this performance is from the old abc "fridays" show.
it was a late night comedy sketch show with weekly musical guests, similar to saturday night live.
The guy that played Cramer on Seinfeld was on Friday's as well with a recurring character named Battleboy. The things we remember 40 or so years later.
Brad, since you really get the intent of Devo, I recommend you to check out Polysics, they're their Japanese spiritual children, as quirky and inventive. And their discography is full of bangers : Electric surfing go-go, I my me mine, Mega overdrive... and like Devo they are even better live.
The Band-Maid/Fan-Base is a happening nothing like it sense The Beatles. It's underground! Metallica got no radio play in the mid 80s it was underground before it blew up! It's the old school rockers that are doing this for Band-Maid those girls are pure joy, and love and impossibly hard rocking Maids!
Start with BLOOMING
DEVO hit us with the truth so early on, but the world recoiled.
This is crazy old for them, they are still writing and touring.
Check out, "don't shoot I'm a man" of one of the newer albums
Dude you want to really launch this thing? Do Band-Maid videos, at least 10 official videos before you form an opinion. The fan base is mostly grown American men read their comments follow their leads you will be pleasantly surprised! Kiss Lexi
We got to see them several times both before and after they had radio hits. They were so fun! Front row at Asbury Park concert hall.... what a great show!
NAILED IT, Brad! Quirky Greatness, personified.... with an undeniable hooks and absolutely fascinating to watch.
It was seeing Devo on SNL in the late 70s that *totally* changed everything musically for me.
Same - My/The World was Never the Same after that!
Devo is Legendary!
Never ever imagine this is who you are. You are open-minded hilarious and interesting and if you two boots you offer any reason we're all going to follow you to Vimeo
I LOVE Devo. The genius is 1 MILLON% underrated.
Fave Devo song. If you catch a requests for the Plasmatics I think they had a killer performance on Fridays as well.
I saw them live, back in the day... Great show!
Every one of their songs is so much fun, and yet is bewildering at the same time. They were so artsy, in their being anti-art, anti-rock star, anti-conventional music, all of that. Never take yourself too seriously, is the lesson I took away from Devo. Never worry about what other people think - They will think what they want to anyway, no matter what you do. It actually frees you.
I would love to visit Devo's home planet. I bet it is very unique.
Oh yeah all us kids loved anything but normal boring rock music that was on its way out at the time
ya got the DEVO urge!
Miss you guys 😢
The main riff is obviously lifted from Led Zeppelin's Misty Mountain Hop, New Wave?
Or the Banana Splits theme, la la la - la la la la. They were never new wave or punk. They were a style unto themselves.
The first real grandfather of alternative
They got rid of all the r&b and country styles
The rules of the mechanical on the first two albums
The guys in the band tied up Allen's left hand to his side and he had to use one hand to do the beats in the first few practices and he actually understood what it was they wanted after that.
Drummer Alan listened to a lot of
Arena rock type music so he
In the early days would throw in these really intricate hard beats.
As they asked him to play with the wanted him to do is keep the beat
He's one of the best.
Is beats are steady in the pocket and original
