We Are DEVO! And they made us all FEEL as though we were, creatively having the long line of awaiting press wear the iconic red construction hats the band is known for before Mark Mothersbaugh, Gerald Casale, and Bob Mothersbaugh (DEVO) made their way in, for the premiere of their documentary at Sundance last night. 

Acclaimed filmmaker Chris Smith (American Movie, Wham!) takes us through the amazing 50-year career with never-before-seen archival footage and interviews of this legendary band, which perfectly captures the gloriously radical spirit that is DEVO, with high-energy montages, lo-fi video, and a charging rhythm that leaves you mesmerized by their wild rise. Band members are honest and open with their memories and archives—finally sharing their full story. They are a rare band founded by a philosophy—a Dada experiment of high art meets low, hellbent on infiltrating American popular culture, and they relish every freakish moment of their story. It's a must-see.
