Death Cab For Cutie Does Devo

[mainstream1402]

DEVO influenced many bands and changed music for many people.

like Nirvana covered DEVO's Turnaround and it was awesome in my opion.

DEVO rocks

[awellstead]

To anyone saying how terrible Death Cab is and how great Devo is: let's just wait 20 years and see who has the word of wisdom. Both are good bands.

My only plus to Death Cab is that they are at least training some of the best musicians out there, so let's not be too quick to shoot down the 'flash in the pan' of Death Cab

[jimothy60]

this is DEVO's worst song

[TheRevisionist]

@jimothy60 Have you ever heard Shout? That album's a complete shitstorm from front to back.

[junkyturd]

@TheRevisionist Sorry i disagree, Here to go is awesome!!!

[oiyabastard]

pick the most popular devo song ... stupid 

[RZAODBGZA]

step on a creck

[s3lf15h]

they really don't have he choreography happening at all, and to pick whip it is a pretty terrible choice.

maybe it's them telling the crowd to whip it and get the hell out of there?

[bacofishtaco]

@awellstead

Yes, DEVO are disgraces to themselves...

DEVO are geniuses, comedians, musicians, philosophers, businessmen, etc.

We are all DEVO.

[DaBomb3434]

ask fucking anyone, devo is only fucking know for whip it. All you stuck up fans can't even respect what is an obvious tribute. you can go fuck yourself cause the death cab is a great band and devo fans who are talking shit about them obviously have never listened

[BlueCollarTweeker]

@DaBomb3434

Stupid statements, you make them.

[eatatmargos]

What I think is AMAZING... NONE of the DEVO covers I have heard have changed a LICK of the MUSIC, they only stress different words they are singing... the MUSIC REMAINS the same BECAUSE, you can't improve PERFECTION. I took A LOT of heat in high school in the late 70's early 80's for being a DEVO fan but NOW it is PAYING OFF!

[Akyho]

@eatatmargos i am a devo fan in my 22nd years of life and i am getting stick for devo and thats after all the influence they have in the last 40 years.

[bacofishtaco]

I just gained so much respect for Death Cab.

[fjossette]

this is disgusting

[Shattersmith]

..

Who knew such a suck-band liked Devo.

They got through the songs effectively. Bonus points for the suck-band.

..

[Gilbavel]

Uch, that was awful. They evidently didn't rehearse it much.

[evelau]

Those covers aren't bad. Much better than their own songs.

Devo rules.

[MoonCrashed]

Wonder how many of the kids in that crowd actually knew what exactly was going on.

[MystikWolf83]

Oh I see ... it was Halloween. LoL

[Lollarcoaster]

They only with they were HALF as good as Devo. Kind of cool to get all dressed up as a tribute though. They get points in that regard. :p

[DragoonNoR]

The guitar player made mistakes all through the song. *Sigh.*

[dirtfoot]

gross

[reebs2004]

HaHa! Awesome! I like Death Cab and also appreciate DEVO. Wish I was there!

[greenjeansmjr]

This is pretty good !

[weihoozie]

Hahaha. This is fucking amazing.

[deyoungparker]

The entire front row has absolutely no clue what they're watching/listening to. Only the old fucks like me in the back get what's going on.

[BucketOfBunnies]

The back row/people who know Devo are the parents of the front row.

[pcsbyte]

DEVO is Classic Punk Rock..

[roundhouse87]

I think they should only do devo songs and maybe they would be a good band!! haha

[eggsammichz]

I don't know whether I love this or I hate this. On one hand, I don't like Death Cab For Cutie or their emo fans, and on the other I think it is EXTREMELY cool that they're into DEVO and I am also a big DEVO fan.

[GottiDaGoodfella]

You have to think....alot of the Death Cab fans have never heard Devo songs except for maybe on a TV commercial, they probably didnt get what was going on. Just thought Death Cab was being different.

[TobyDurkin]

Shame about the sound quality but they seem to be doing a pretty faithfull cover.

[theginny]

hahaha i was there.

i dove for chris walla's hat. it's still in my room.

[djmikedee]

Its not that bad of a cover actually, just bizzare for death cab! I mean covering Devo?? Odd for thier part.

[Microwavish]

Death Cab sucks but Devo is rad

[jewggers]

ARE WE NOT PINS?

[leefypk]

WE ARE DEVO.

[Christianzurkowski]

Deth KaB is ghey

[Christianzurkowski]

gheyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy­

[inthefade]

too bad they only covered the obvious (and in my opinion worst) songs. Well done though.

[bgdcfc]

These guys are paying respect to Devo, and they're a damn good band. How is it disgraceful to pay homage to someone you respect?

[flat193val]

death cabs awesome u douchebags.bands will be covering their songs in 30 years, no doubt.

[didyouseethatlight]

I wish all these people would quit being hateful to each other in disagreement over Devo. They were a great band, and yes they're iconic and represent an entire era. But they also are men with senses of humor. I'm sure, knowing Gibbard & Co. and Mark Mothersbaugh, that there's a mutual respect there. DCFC did a fine job, and I think it was done in respect. Obviously the audience loved it. Lay off each other.

[VinnyVoom444]

Hey Awellstead, if Death Cab is still relevant and touring 30 years later, bands are covering their songs, and their music/stage apparel is iconic to an era like DEVO, I'll be first in line to kiss your ass. Until then you can kiss mine!

[awellstead]

Haha!

I can see Ben Gibbard doing touring in 30 years, but I don't know about the full band. Death Cab has a cult following, as did Devo, and I presume they will still have quite a following in time to come. But unfortunately you're setting to high of limitations; as I hope to have forgotten all about this in less than 30 days!

[fftlguy]

hey dick fuck,..i mean..awellstea(asshole) umm..u no shit about devo..obviously...they revolutionized all rock music as we no it..almost everything played on kroq has, in a way, evolved from bands suck as devo,sex pistols, etc..i love death cab also..but they have evolved..well,de-volved from devo..just except that..ok? if death cab can make a bigger impact than devo and continue 2 love playing when there 50 and 51 and show no signes of stopping,then u have room 2 brag

[Lyght55]

Hahahahaha. You know nothing of Devo. Name two songs that aren't "Whip It" or "Girl U Want". At least Devo has a place in music history.

[Lyght55]

What a disgrace to Devo.

[brendansocialscene]

your a disgrace...

[Christianzurkowski]

If you wish to support your argument with any bit of integrity, it is "you're a disgrace..." not "your a disgrace," you dunce.

[brendansocialscene]

okay zurkowski..? your awesome

[brendansocialscene]

whatever... it was a great show none the less

[mthib13]

woohoo!

[losingluster]

i think i love you for this

[tottallyoff]

shouldnt you love devo instead?

[losingluster]

touche salesman :)

indeed.

[awellstead]

Thanks Grenke... That's all I ask for... Awesomeness is what I aim for.

[JordanGrenke]

Not only is this Video AMAZING, . .Alex Wellstead is the EFFIN man for putting it up!!
