Description
Gerald Casale is the co-founder of the iconic rock band DEVO. In Part 1, “Are we not men?” Gerald tells how he was caught in the crossfire of the May 4 Massacre at Kent State University, a personally shattering event that gave birth to one of the most intense punk bands of the 1970s, DEVO. Gerald offers his take on current events and warns kids today that they’re threatened with the same shattering lesson he suffered in the Kent State shootings. He discusses the origins of DEVO as an art movement intended on making music video laser discs, not LP records and in the process pioneered the music video. DEVO’s unique sound was so new that they were widely criticized and even physically assaulted by NY punk bands for being “different.”
