The best song they have recorded in the last 20 years was Huboon Stomp from the South Park Chef Aid disc - but that was an old song, written in the mid-70s. And it is really mad. These new songs are quite sedate in comparison. They try to make them as exciting as possible by polishing them to perfection, but it's the lacklustre songwriting that causes them to fall short.

Still like them though.

Ugh. Auto-tuned DEVO is not what I was hoping for. I'm doing the study now and so far I've heard one song I like out of sixteen.

My favorite was Sumthin, but there were at least ten I honestly felt good voting for. And then another two that would be my preferred filler.

I'm a big fan, but this is an over-produced post-Shout parody of themselves. Bummer.

Fresh was my favorite. Sumthin starts with the Whip It beat :(

I'm a big fan too, but I guess I'm too generous.

Auto-tuned DEVO

I think these may be the worst words in the English language (and also why I am not going to hit "play")

Sorry to be a spoiler Spacecadet. It's not criminal over-use of auto-tuner. But it is there...
