There's a fully authorised Devo documentary on the way
Devo have a self-titled full-length documentary in the works, which is being directed by Chris Smith (Fyre, Tiger King).
Devo will mark the first fully authorised film about the band, and Pitchfork reports that it'll include a variety of archival footage and interviews, and will cover the band's career from forming in the wake of the Kent State shootings, their breakout moment with "Whip It", and more
Director Smith said of the project, "Devo was a huge influence on me. Their approach to music, film, video, and art was something I had never seen before and was one of the truly formative artistic influences that showed me there were entirely new ways to look at things."
Devo's Devo documentary is yet to get a release date. They'll play some festivals this summer including Øya, Flow Festival and more.
