Is there any question that de-evolution is real?
“Don’t be surprised to see us on tour in our iconic red “Energy Domes” as we careen toward another presidential election. Speaking truth to power is a never-ending battle. It’s what we do.” – Gerald V. Casale of DEVO

Bob Casale, one of the 5 essential gears in the original DEVO Fab 5, gets

Now for the Future” era helmet and protective pads circa 1979 and his

Army.

Recent interview with DEVO Assistant/Archivist Michael Pilmer on his life as Devo-Obsesso, the new DEVO book, upcoming DEVO projects, and more.
Check out the “Assault Of The 2-Headed Space Mules!” site for the full hour-long interview.
We kicked off the New Traditionalists tour in the Fall of 1981 there in St. Paul, MN. We were experimenting with press conferences as if we were a political activist group in order to re-frame our music and visuals beyond a trivializing Rock n’ Roll press mentality. It was gratifying to hear from the fans who would show up. They understood that life under President Reagan was stultifying. Reagan and his anti-diversity and inclusion policies were empowering the barrage of attacks on basic First Amendment freedoms from the Evangelical, religious right. Reagan was evoking the fantasy of 1950’s, Mom and Apple Pie, white bread America that defied the real forces of international discord and looming environmental disaster facing all people. Once again de-evolution seemed to win out over rational thought and forward looking ideas. We did what we could to humorously fight back. We posited New Traditions to replace the stale, punishing traditions holding people down. – Jerry Casale/DEVO
