Before scoring a record deal in 1978, Devo had already helped shape what would eventually become the major source of promotion for music in the 1980s: the music video. Devo’s initial work in film was a reflection on their creative virtuosity. They were less musicians and more all-around art students that experimented in print-art, films and even built their own instruments for several of their early recordings. 

Here’s a list of Devo’s five best music videos:

1. Jocko Homo
This is where it all began. The Jocko Homo video was actually the second segment of their 1976 film “In the beginning was the end: The truth about de-evolution.” This song is the Devo anthem. It lays out the driving philosophy behind the band—the human race is no longer evolving, it is de-evolving. Like most of Devo’s early work, the video sets a weird post-apocalyptic tone that rides line between creepy and fun.
