Any other DEVO fans out there?

For anyone who hasn't heard of DEVO, Devolution, or Mark Mothersbaugh...check it out. Everyone on here has heard multiple things written/composed by Mark Mothersbaugh.

Disclaimer: You must have an odd sense of humor, like art, or be stoned to really enjoy all the DEVO stuff....

Uncontrollable Urge is one of the best songs of all time. You've all heard it...you probably just don't know it.

I bet you don't even know what song I'm talking about, yet you commented anyways.
Is it just another case of Stupid European? Or a case of Devolution? Hmmmm....

No, i dind't know what song you were talking about, so i went onto youtube, and as i thought, i didn't know it.

That's 2 assumptions you've incorrectly made now. First you tell me i've heard it, now you tell me i'm commenting without knowing what i am commenting on. Great work sir! And now i'm a s

Maybe you should think twice before calling someone stupid :lol:

You seem to be very angry about the fact that someone doesn't know a song you like..

Your statement indicates that i didn't know what song you were talking about and then posted whilst still ignorant of the song. When i posted i was fully aware about what you were talking about, hence why i posted. My second post was in realtion to my first, i youtubed the song prior to posting the first post, hence how i was able to know that i didn't know the song despite your belief that everyone knows it.

Congratulations on being a jackass.

I'm still just curious as to why me correcting you on the assumption that we must all know that song has gotten you so mad. Quite bizarre.

I started a thread about DEVO. You then stuck your ignorant nose into the conversation.

Don't be mad because devolution exists...be mad that it's happening to YOU. LOL!

I stuck my ignorant nose into the conversation to just point out that you are talking out of your arse :) Not everyone knows your precious Devo songs however much you would love it to be true. If devolution means not knowing about a band, then i am perfectly happy to be put in that catagory :) I find it amusing that you talk of ignorance yet create a thread and start making statements based on pure ignorance on behalf of people you know nothing about.

It's a band, and despite your prior belief that everyone knows one of their songs, i don't. Relax..

I listened to Devo a lot when I was a teeneager and 20 something!

I like "Oh No, It's Devo" the best!

My favorite is "Q: Are We Not Men? A: We Are Devo!"

Interesting fact: The picture on that album is a morphed picture of John Kennedy, Richard Nixon, Gerald Ford, Lyndon Johnson, and "Chi Chi" Rodriguez.

WHen devo came out with 'smooth noodle maps'.....I lost touch with their music

Yeah, 'Shout' was their last really good album, IMO. Not that they put a whole lot out after that.

Probably a combination of age and a lowering of their drug intake...

At the time, fractals were still new. These guys got really into it! Devo went on to make music for commercials for many yrs after this, tho

It was strange to hear them in so many commercials! LOL!

I just saw a new album came out in 2010 called 'something for everybody'


:)

I'm liking this track right now!

Here's a track off of 'something for everybody' that's pretty good!

They have grown up, again! Some of their music is spiritual, believe or not!

I still hear them around in commercials now and then.

I'm sure that you know this(most don't), Mark Mothersbaugh composes original music for a lot of movies. He has also done the music for many cartoons. Not cheap cheesy music, but full orchestras. I love it when people say they hate everything associated with Devo. I then show them all the great music that Mark M. has made and they start taking another look at Devo.
