Oh, No! It's Devo

Oh, No! It's Devo is the 5th studio album by Devo. By the time of its 1982 release, Devo were a fully-fledged synth-pop act. Most of the music on Oh, No!.. was created by electronic means which gave it a much different sound to, for example, their 1978 debut Q: Are We Not Men? A:We Are Devo!, which relied more on guitars than synthesizers. This alienated some fans despite the band stating since at least 1978 that their goal was to "de-emphasize" guitars. The song I Desire brought the band controversy because the lyrics were taken from a poem written by John Hinckley Jr (the man who attempted to assassinate President Ronald Reagan in a bid to impress actress Jodie Foster).
