If you’ve never heard the song “Whip It,” I’m afraid you might be dead (unless you’ve seen a Swiffer commercial recently). Devo – that funny band of robotic nerds in matching plastic hats and space suits – have been around since the late 1970s. The aforementioned best-known hit was released in 1980 on their third album, Freedom of Choice. Also on this Greatest Hits compilation are other priceless gems like “Girl U Want,” “Jocko Homo,” and their cover of the Rolling Stones’ “(I Can’t Get No) Satisfaction.” Devo’s quirky new-wave sound holds up well decade after decade, making this $5 MP3 deal a sound investment in your future fun.
