Free Music Notes for Oh, No! It's Devo

Free Music Review: One of my favorite DEVO releases
Hit: 5 Stars

Even though this album continues the mostly guitarless electronic new wave that started with Freedom Of Choice and went full circuit with New Traditionalists, but unlike NT this album is extremely varied in sound and atmosphere. In my review of NT I called a number of its tracks 'filler', but this album is all very strong, lyrically and musically.

The music is often pretty quirky (Speed Racer, Time Out For Fun, That's Good) while others are much more serious (Explosions, Patterns); overall the album is less a recap of everything they've done before but more an electronic progression of such things. This album also has some of the catchiness tunes they've ever made, at least in my opinion; with NT I feel a lot of tracks really fall short of melody and any strong musical structure, but every track in Oh No! is cleverly written, with intelligent usage of percussion and keyboards/synths and samples, and some of the most memorable vocals in the DEVO catalogue (Peek A Boo, Speed Racer, Time Out For Fun, which has an interesting intro to the song/album).

Lyrically, as I said, it goes from quirky to serious, in between those extremes and simultaneously. From the first track you can tell DEVO was more interested in doing something fun, but this lighter side of DEVO still retains the satirical DEVO mentality. The whole thing is sort of 'We still aren't happy with the world, but we can make fun of it and no one's the wiser'.

This is probably the one DEVO album that I have no problems listening all the way through in one sitting, without skipping a track.
