DEVO

new wave, post-punk
Formed in Akron, Ohio, Devo became iconic figures of the new wave movement with their theory of "de-evolution" and distinctive, robotic sound. Their 1980 hit "Whip It," accompanied by a memorable music video, catapulted them to mainstream success. Known for their satirical social commentary and unique stage presence, including their signature energy dome hats, they've left a lasting impact on music and visual culture.
