Product Information
DEVO's Hardcore documents the group's beginning as pre-punk
outcasts in the fertile Akron, Ohio, underground rock scene.
Spawned at the nearby college of Kent State, site of the infamous
May 4 Massacre, DEVO formed as a conceptual art project armed
with the radical philosophy of de-evolution. Brothers
Mothersbaugh (Mark, Bob and Jim) and Brothers Casale (Jerry and
Bob) along with drummer Alan Myers soon whipped up an
otherworldly brand of "devolved blues" that could hold its own
alongside the beatnik groove of 15-60-75 (a. k.a. The Numbers
Band) or the primal rock poetry of The Bizarros.
From Henry Rollins's liner notes to the CD version: "Hardcore is not some
barrel-bottom scrape in a desperate attempt to pilfer your billfold!
This is pure DEVO-the sweetest crude, straight from the source!"
