Music videos for bands these days are so bland! The videos Devo made were as entertaining as their songs not the usual bog standard template music videos we get nowadays. This dvd is a must for any fan just for the dvd with the music videos on alone! Unfortunately the second dvd which is them live isn't so good, mainly 'cause I object to a great band like Devo opening for covers band Metallica. I'm sure it was a great performance if you were there but the audience weren't too enthusiastic, just the wrong crowd so it just doesn't make the dvd worth watching more than once. The packaging is very basic although the design is very fitting as it's the DEVO logo but compared with or music dvds the cover is nothing special. The video for Whip It has to be one of the greatest music videos ever made, cowboys, and a blind shooter, weird but adorable. fantastic videos for Come Back Jonee and Girl U Want and the rest are a fine collection of oddity. The picture quality isn't too brilliant but that's mainly because the music videos weren't big budget and are somewhat aged. But this is essential buying for any DEVO fan for the first disk alone. Devo are a one of a kind band, not quite fitting into any genre but if it had to go anywhere it would be new-wave. Highly poppy but in a weird electro punk way. Just like the band the videos were fantastic, cutting edge and totally weird.
