This sumptuously illustrated two volume set comes in a special clamshell box which also contains a large, exclusive print of a collaborative work of art by Mark and Jerry. DEVO: The Brand is illustrated throughout with classic DEVO iconography and music press interviews with major British and US publications, giving a total overview of how the DEVO public identity was constructed. DEVO: Unmasked is packed with rare and unseen photos of the band as children, Mark and Jerry at Kent State University, and every stage of Devo’s career from the early 1970s to the present day.

Commentary on the photos, and Devo history is provided by Jerry and Mark in first-person testimony throughout both DEVO: The Brand and DEVO: Unmasked.

Presented in a specially made, rubberised clamshell box, this two-book set is limited to 500 copies, and is signed by DEVO.

Press reviews

Devo: The Brand offers the visual history of a band so intrinsically tied to its aesthetic, it doubled as a philosophy. An exhaustive archive, the book collects glossy prints of rare photos, old fliers, news clippings, record artwork, and various odds and ends. Turn the book over and there’s Devo: Unmasked, a more conventional origin story featuring old photos and early art projects from the Casale and Mothersbaugh brothers. With its rubber covers and mountain of artwork and hilarious stories about pissing off record company employees, this two-sided book is crucial for Devo diehards.
