Free Music Notes for Q: Are We Not Men? A: We Are Devo!
Free Music Review: an explosive awakening
Hit: 5 Stars
I was 16 when this album was originally released. I was listening, and really "into" Elton, Wings, ELO, Pink Floyd, GFR, Kansas... et al.
I friend bought this record and hated it, so he gave it to me.
The first listen caused scatterbrain. Each subsequent listen got easier and easier to "digest".
Wow! What an awakening this brought me! Although I was still very much into the arena rock scene, within months I was digging deeply into Talking Heads, XTC, The Fools, Fingerprintz, The Slits.... and on and on...
To this day, this album ranks very high in my soul. I turned many a military roommate onto this stuff.
I also find this album to be an incredible mood lifter. Just plain fun!
Q: Are We Not Men? A: We Are Devo! Poster
When Devo's debut album came out in 1978, nobody knew what to make of the mutant new-wave quintet from Akron, Ohio. With Brian Eno's skillful production, Mark and Bob Mothersbaugh, Jerry and Bob Casale, and Alan Myers emerged fully formed and outrageous with their razor-sharp social commentary and exhibition of subversive media savvy. Beyond their industrial uniforms and pseudo-devolved demeanor, Devo also happened to be a rocking little band. Classic rave-outs like "Mongoloid," "Jocko Homo," and "Uncontrollable Urge" illustrate the band's perky-jerky intensity. On their inimitable cover of the Rolling Stones' youth anthem, "Satisfaction," Devo's avant-garde robot funk takes the song to a new level of alienation and discontent. While the band went on to greater fame, this was the only album they made that truly mattered. --Mitch MeyersAlternative Rock Music CDs
