We?re pinheads now
We are not whole
We?re pinheads all

[code:292d4]Devo co-founder Mark Mothersbaugh: "Jocko Homo was one of the first songs I wrote for the band. The whole song was meant to be a theme song for the theory of de-evolution and for Devo, what we were about. It was meant to lay out the story right there. It was a collection of discussions we had where we sat around in Kent after students had been shot, and decided that what we were seeing happening on the planet, when we looked at the news and read the paper, was not evolution but was more appropriately described as de-evolution."[/code:292d4]


lots of awesome history and ideas behind devo ... more than just a group of people playing instruments.
