Free Music Review: Enter the World of Devo.........if you dare!
Hit: 5 Stars
One of my top 10 favorite albums of the 70's. There is no other album anything like this one. Well, maybe perhaps Devo's 1st, but I still prefer this album. Almost a Theme album with each song having Devo's signature craziness stamped all over it. How much more insane does a song have to get than 'Pink Pussycat'. How nasty and irresistibly creepy is 'The Day my Baby Gave me a surprise', telling the tale of a hospital bound boy with horrific injuries being given the joy of a baby boy by his girlfriend who can't bear to look at him. 'Wahooo-ooooooo-oooooooh!' indeed. 'Secret Agent Man' is a great catchy remake whilst 'Smart-Patrol/Mr. DNA' is the best thing on this record. This track is Devo's very own unique creation and the sheer verve and excitement of it really draws you into their unique world. 'Red-Eye Express' shows you how to build a very simple record with just one fantastic hook, that hook being a helicopter like rotating beat that leads into a true New Wave Classic. Fantastic use of earlyish Synth technology it's a perfect mix of guitar's and electronic music. They were a highly innovative and influential band. This album was possibly 'Devo's' last hurrah as they never really made anything as good as this again, save a few singles and the obvious 'Whip It' single. This whole album tells a story completely unique to itself. Make no doubt about it 'Devo' were more revolutionary than most self-professed punk bands and between this and their 1st album they could do no wrong. Perhaps someone could explain to me how 'Devo' songs always seemed to end up on 'Heavy Metal' album compilations. This album I think would surprise a lot of people and shows what Devo were really all about. They lived and breathed their own world through their music and anyone who might have had a passing interest in Devo but never got past 'Whip It', well then you should really pick up this & their 1st album. I think you'd be amazed.
Duty Now for the Future Poster
Keyboards jumped to the fore as Devo continued their rise to pop power with this hit 1979 Warner Bros. album. Their unforgettable take on Secret Agent Man joins inspired originals like The Day My Baby Gave Me a Surprize; Smart Patrol/Mr. DNA , and the faux-fascist track that kicks off the record, Devo Corporate Anthem !Alternative Rock Music CDs
