Title: Devo – Q: Are We Not Men? A: We Are Devo!
Year/Genre/Sub-Genre/City: 1978, Rock, New Wave, Akron, Ohio
Condition: New

Cultural Facts:

  1. Studio Lore: Produced by Brian Eno, whose “accidents welcome” approach clashed with Devo’s control instincts, creating tension that shaped the final edits.

  2. Media Narrative: Their satire got misread as stupidity by critics; the band leaned into being the punchline to expose how easily media frames win.

  3. Personal Struggle: Their worldview was scarred by the Kent State shootings nearby; that trauma turned into a lifelong obsession with fear, conformity, and collapse.
