DEVO marks half a century with 50 YEARS OF DE-EVOLUTION: 1973 – 2023, a new career-spanning boxed set that encompasses all of Devo’s hits and a selection of rarities.
The collection stands as a testament to the band’s legacy, compiling key tracks from all nine of Devo’s studio albums, as well as rarities like the 1974 demo for “I’m A Potato” and single mixes for “Come Back Jonee,” “Snowball,” and “What We Do.”
This deluxe version comes in a slipcase with a 28-page book, a Devo air freshener, and a foldable paper hat that resembles the band’s iconic red energy domes. Additionally, a lithograph of the album artwork is included.
The first 150 who placed an order received a pink card with their box set announcing their lithograph has been autographed by the three original band members.
Issued in matte-finish pocket box with Energy Dome Hat (on cover), DEVO (on spine), and numbering (on rear) in gold foil. Bottom of box is an oversized barcode, also in gold foil. And on box rear, the artist, title, and track listing are in spot varnish.
Each 2LP gatefold cover features spot varnish for artist name, dome hat, goggles, and jumpsuit. And spot varnish inside for the slide photos. Records in black, die-cut, anti-static sleeves.
Book contains a seven-piece sticker sheet, liner notes, track credits, U.S. Billboard chart positions, and track commentary with Gerald Casale and Mark Mothersbaugh from 1983 through 2023.
Track G2 titled "Theme From Doctor Detroit (Dance Mix)" on LP sleeve and record label.
