Ahhh ... there's a place for everything, I guess.
Can't get too worked up about this. This music ain't designed for me, so I'm
not sure it's worth freaking out over.
And DEVO 2.0 just cracks me up. Kids need a safe harbor, and if this is the
training wheels stuff that introduces them to pop music, then let 'em have
at it.
