Devo updated their sound for the 90's with this garish, joyish and generally uninspired collection of synth pop
songs. The single was the rather lame "Post Post Modern Man" and there's also a cover of "Modern Dew" on here as
well. "When We Do It" is your typically Devo song about sex. With as many songs as they write about that topic,
you'd really have to wonder whether these guys were getting any! The song "Jimmy", about a hateful man who winds
up in a wheelchair, is mildly amusing, but beyond that song it's pretty a pretty bleak record. If this was the
only album I owned, I still wouldn't want listen to it again. It's no wonder they cancelled their tour and
disbanded after this one.
