Subject: Are Devo cheesy?

Written By: Full_House_Fan on 02/12/05 at 12:43 am

I pick "In Some Ways".  Devo are cheesy sounding but really have genius behind them.  They're like the Beatles or Nirvana of New Wave in my opinion.

Is 1982's Oh No!  It's Devo! any good/was it popular?  I'd heard samples of the songs and they sound great!

What's their best in your opinion, JamieMcBain?  I'd buy Freedom of Choice first if I ever buy their albums.

I don't own any albums of theirs, I've heard a lot of their songs on Launchcast though (i don't burn music).  I would suggest Freedom of Choice though.  It sounds like their best work, although the critics rave over Are We Not Men?  I'm more of a synth than punk guy though.

You're welcome, man!  Did Devo play on the Canadian airwaves in the eighties?
