DEVO Album Cover Trivia


While bands like The Ramones and The Sex Pistols ignited the filth and the fury of the late 70's punk rock scene, DEVO was part of the art school set. They fit in with the likes of Talking Heads, The B-52's, Oingo Boingo, The Residents, Lene Lovich, Laurie Anderson, Yello, and many other similar artists who saw writing songs and recording records as simply one element of a larger presentation. Like the other artists mentioned above, DEVO also explored film, video, theatrics, electronics, and even alter egos. But if you went to a punk rock party in 1980, you'd probably hear all these bands played together right alongside some Buzzcocks, Clash, and Generation X.

Anyways, some DEVO trivia is in order: Which DEVO album cover shows the heads of the band members mounted on top of potatoes?

Bonus Question: Back in the 80's, when DEVO went on tour, they'd sometimes appear incognito as their own opening band. What did they call themselves when they performed the opening set pretending to be a Christian soft-rock group?
