Devo Album: “Post Post-Modern Man”

I bought this just because I'm trying to collect all of Devo on CD. This is not really one of my favorite Devo songs, but it's decent enough. This CD has the album version of the song, an instrumental version of it, and 5 remixes. Listening to it all in one sitting doesn't really get tiring. It all flows pretty well, and the song is catchy enough that you don't mind hearing the hook a bunch of times throughout the disc. The beats are nothing special by today's standards, but if you like early 90s techno, it's not bad.

For a limited edition CD released in 1990, there seem to be quite a few new copies still around. That's not surprising, really. Many spuds had tuned out by the time this was released. Lucky for those of us who are only recently collecting this stuff, though.

Flagship song from the obscure 1990 album Smooth Nooddle Maps in seven different versions. Of some relevance, the forth track, (Macro Post-Modern Mix) is the same version whose audio can be heard the 1993 video compilation The Complete Truth About Devolution. Also, sixth and seventh tracks (Neo Post-Modern Mix and Ultra Post-Modern Dub) contain samples from the electronic pioneer Kraftwerk' song It's More Fun To Compute.
