You can watch Devo Live in the Land of the Rising Sun (2004) for free on Fawesome.

New wave geniuses who helped define an era with their quirky, futuristic, and revolutionary style are back, entertaining the Japanese crowds who love them as much today as they did 25 years ago. Devo have been through a lot over the years, developing their parody of humankind's plight of conformity in their theory of devolution after member Gerald Casale witnessed the Kent State killings of student protesters in 1970, but they haven't wavered in their innovative sounds and pioneering visuals.

Mark Mothersbaugh and the band fight to maintain their frantic, mechanical energy while performing for a Japanese audience that still worships their brand of calculated absurdity. This concert captures the group at their most visually striking, proving their satire of human conformity remains as sharp and neon as ever.
