looking at DEVO music for the first time and. what the fuck are the lyrics. why does he think he's only a spudboy? wash my hands three times a day? "god made man, but a monkey supplied the glue" is a pretty good one though ngl. but how does a sober person come up with these lyrics in 1978. i dunno, maybe my not-age is showing here

I can’t believe they disturbed Spudboy! He was so comfy underground, all tucked in and curled up in the foetal position...

Listen to DEVO cover Nine Inch Nails' "Head Like a Hole"

Listen to DEVO cover Nine Inch Nails’ “Head Like a Hole”

https://boingboing.net/2021/06/23/listen-to-devo-cover-nine-inch-nails-head-like-a-hole.htmlDavid PescovitzBoing Boing I consider myself a strong-rooted spudboy and yet somehow I missed DEVO’s fantastic 1996 cover of Nine Inch Nails’ electronic industrial anthem "Head Like a Hole." Of course, "Head Like a Hole" was the second single off NIN’s 1990 debut LP "Pretty Hate Machine" and became quite…

The Vinyl of the Day is ‘New Traditionalists’ by DEVO, 1981. The album’s sound continued in the vein of their previous studio album ‘Freedom of Choice’, with synthesizers moved even further to the forefront and the guitars became more subdued. Some of the tracks featured drum machines for the first time on a Devo album. In addition, the lyrics are frequently dark and vitriolic. With the success of “Whip It” and the album ‘Freedom of Choice”, Devo had attracted a new, more pop-oriented audience that was less interested in the band’s artistic theories and intelligent lyrics. In response, ‘New Traditionalists’ was intended to be a much darker, deeper and serious album. The lead-in track, “Through Being Cool,” was a direct attack on new fans who didn’t understand Devo’s message, and most of the songs on the album are darker and more direct than on previous Devo albums. The exception to this is “Beautiful World,” whose message seems optimistic at first but changes as the song progresses to pretty pure nihilism. 

It really surprises me that many fans and critics dislike this album - in my opinion “New Traditionalist” stands out as a record that not only perfectly defines the sound of the pop revolution of the early 80s, but it brings out all of Devo’s qualities like no other Devo record. No other Devo record has as much emotional impact, but it can still be heard for sheer musical pleasure - and that’s a good combo.

The synth-bass sound is warm and full, the keyboards are lush, cool, sometimes dramatic, the guitars stand out with warmth, and the singing and the voice effects are on the spot/spud. The songs themselves are perfect, fat-free pop compositions that still simply rock. Not only were the spudboys utterly unique for the time, they’ve kept that quality until today, becoming one of the most groundbreaking groups of rock history.

AllMusic Review by Steve Huey

Devo followed up their platinum-selling pop breakthrough in typically perverse fashion: New Traditionalists presents a band seemingly aghast at being pegged as a novelty act by some of their own satirical targets. Apparently deciding – admittedly, not without reason – that America’s comprehension of irony was sorely lacking, Devo largely abandons its sense of absurdity on New Traditionalists, explicitly stating their cultural views and at times calling attention (as with the otherwise terrific single “Beautiful World”) to their already obvious sarcasm, in case anyone missed the point. The problem was, Devo’s cult wasn’t missing the point, and with all their quirky trappings, the band was hardly likely to reach most of their newfound pop audience by making their message more straightforward. The opener “Through Being Cool” actually benefits from the new outlook, making for a clear and effective statement of purpose. It sets the stage for some of Devo’s angriest, most embittered songs, which often function as connections between new wave and the punk attitudes that were so crucial in its creation.
