More from Devo

  1. (On performing) We do this because we have to. Do we look like we're having fun?
  2. We were taking our inspiration from the high and the low; the biggest ideas, and the dumbest ideas.
  3. We're sucking the gooey cellulite from modern music. Reductive synthesis. We do it all for you.
  4. Being in a band is really great when you're 20. When you're 30, it's kind of 'Spinal Tap,' and when you're 40, it's just pathetic.
  5. People accuse us of trying to be glamorous! We don't wear these because we like them. We have to! They're protective gear.
  6. We've been called a 'no-hit wonder.' We don't care.
  7. Like the Bible, devolution is basically an extended joke. One man's doughnut is another man's death.
  8. We denounce this as impostors playing with fire.
