De-evolution has finally arrived and who better to guide us through the mess than Devo.I've always kinda hated the band, but it's hard to argue with that. :')
Oh, thanks a lot sushiman. /sarc I was in my blissful ignorance about Devo being Zerobama supporters. Now, I guess I’ll have to stop listening to them, along with John Cougar Mellencamp, Bruce Springsteen, Bruce Hornsby, Don Henley, and Pearl Jam. I wish these artists would just shut up and SING.
I’ve been deleting friends from my MYSPACE page left and right : Devo ; B-52s ; Portishead ; Bob Dylan ; and a host of others . They don’t need to advertise their preference ; like you saod - just sing and shut up !
To my knowledge, they didn't concoct any multimedia Obama adverts.

Ummm... I wasn't referring to your belly button. ;-)
Check out the music credits for the Rugrats cartoon. It's almost all written and performed by Mothersbough.
“Autobahn”, the nihilist band from the movie, is supposed to be a parody of Kraftwerk, I think.
Abide
Donny: Are these the Nazis, Walter?
Walter Sobchak: No, Donny, these men are nihilists, there's nothing to be afraid of.
and . . .
Walter Sobchak: Nihilists! F*** me. I mean, say what you like about the tenets of National Socialism, Dude, at least it's an ethos.

Interesting. I don’t know. If it is, I wonder how many on the left have condemned him for his racist depiction?
