There’s good news for Devo fans this morning as the new album titled ‘Something for Everybody‘ landed in our office and has been on repeat since. The classic 80s 4-piece have delivered another timeless pop record which once again will have you dancing and singing from first track Fresh. Other highlights on the album are Please Baby Please, Don’t Shoot, Mind Games, Human Rocket, Step Up, in fact there are many highlights on this 16 track return for the band that will always be in our top 10 of all time, so expect good times when it’s released on June 14th in the UK and June 15th in the US.
We will hopefully be meeting them for an interview in London when they visit in June, fingers crossed it all works out so we can bring you an inside scoop on ‘Something for Everybody’.
Matt Pritchard, Dykie and Leo Sharp have made it to Wales by foot as part of their 900 mile run from the top of Scotland for the Elodie Wilton appeal. Pritchard carried a Cardiff City flag into Monmouth this afternoon where he will meet fellow Dirty Sanchez and Death rider Lee Dainton who will take over on camera duties for the remainder of the trip- expect the usual mayhem.
Happy Birthday to Leo today who looks in pain from this tweeted pic this afternoon- only 250 miles of this to go mate! Get behind them with your support by donating here.
