Devo

Devo is the definitive new wave band, the leader of the Big Four of the early bands (the others being Talking Heads, The B-52's, and Oingo Boingo). They have an enormous legacy, even insofar as having a child-oriented tribute band playing watered-down versions of Devo songs. Album Freedom of Choice went platinum with their debut album going gold. Single Whip It went platinum. They have been considered for the Hall before but not inducted.
