Something for Everybody

More than three decades after the release of its visionary debut, Q: Are We Not Men? A: We Are Devo, and a full twenty years since its last studio album, Devo is back with the aptly titled Something for Everybody. The long rumored, wildly anticipated album features the band's classic line-up: Mark and Bob Mothersbaugh, Gerald and Bob Casale - joined by drummer Josh Freese (Nine Inch Nails, Guns n' Roses). The album also includes contributions from John Hill and Santi White (better known as rising hip-hop star Santigold), John King of the Dust Brothers, and the Teddybears. Though the songs recorded for Something for Everybody are built on Devo's signature mechanized swing, the recording and presentation of the album saw the band experimenting with an entirely new approach. A series of studies were conducted through the www.clubdevo.com site to help the band with its creative decisions, from color selection to song mixes.
