If you look up the Hawaiian Punch commercial from 1987 that mark from Devo made the song for. The bass is almost the exact same. They are both also from the same state and someone said they both shared the same drummer for a while!
It starts so intense with that beat and then that absolute *shit* CMI guitar sample comes in, and it’s suddenly a fantastic musical prank. Live forever, Devo.
Absolutely amazing. As an early 80s punk/alternative fan I can't believe a Black Mirror episode with Miley C. led me to this Devo cover I had no idea existed. Full circle. Hell Ya!!!!!!
While I'd been a fan since the college kids down the street in the 70's turned me on to them, I finally went and saw them at the University of Utah student union "Union Ballroom" with no expectations out of them live more than any other band. I was blown away! I've still never seen a live band that rocked harder. People who don't know sell them short, but they are an A list musical talent. FWIW.
I was going to say something mean about Miley, but after growing up in Tennessee and the entertainment Industry, I'd bet she's had a full view of De-evolution, so respect to her.
@@suburbanindie the problem with Miley is she was actively encouraged to be weird by her handlers or whatever you want to call them. A&R? I dunno. But trainwrecks get attention.
I always felt that the original was similar in feel to Devo tunes like Peek-A-Boo and Girl U Want. This isn't a slam, just meant to say that Devo was influential.
Man this cover is so much fun, very Devo and the unique instrument choices in some places genuinely makes the instrumental sound like it could've come out of the original System Shock alongside Energy Systems.

Really great. Its cool because NiN like Ministry before them exist because of the synth pop pioneers luke DEVO, Kraftwerk, Gary Numan, and Joy Division. Ministry actually having been aroind for the synth pop era and then being the first relevant industrial metal band maybe skinny puppy as well. Like the DEVO Girl You want cover BY soundgarden.
I used to love this cover when I was younger. I actually preferred this over the original. But as I got older, and got into industrial music, I'm not as fond of this cover as much but I still enjoy it for what it is

I heard a little soundbite on Lithium on Sirius. I had to check it out. The rhythm is just like the original. This version definitely has the Devo touch.
+okko kook Devo. is definitely better if compared to Butt Hole Surfers. One is a Pioneer of alternative music. the other is a band that came along after it was safe to be different, and not the typical, hard rock, metal God wannabe , same Ole tired music the big record companies seemed to feel safe signing to big record deals in those days

I know Devo has the right to cover anything they please. But it's just tht we're so used to listening them in synths and new wave that this kind of alienates us. But then again, great job. They might do well in the trash metal scene.
Devo had a guitar and a bass since day one, plus they played fucking punk. I dont see the alienation in covering, specifically, a rather synthethic song from a rather synthethic band. If anything, it makes sense that Devo gives respect to people they actually influenced.
Yes, i agree with your point my friend. In fact, i consider them as a punk band myself. But i have to inform you though that Devo, according to G. Casale, never wanted to call themselves punk or rock n roll. So i guess that why they tried pushing their songs into pop industrial somewhat synthetic (that's your term) sounds to distinguished themselves from punk. They once said that guitars would become obsolete in the music industry because of electronics. But yes, i totally agree with you. I'm only requesting you respect my opinion on my alienation with Devo in this song (and with this song only) and i'm not saying like it's a bad thing. So please, peace!
Plus, i like how you describe NIN to being synthetic. It sounds weird but funny at the same time. Hehehe.. I always thought the right term was industrial. Hahaha... Synthetic. Thanks for making my day. :)
Jabby Napigkit im using synthethic as am adjective rather than a label because of how we were speaking about both bands choice of instruments. The point in calling Devo punk is how they did whatever they wanted , with the means they had, in the way they wanted. It doesnt get punker than that. Ironically the most punk thing was not be a punk, if that makes sense. NIN on the other hand were just repeating a winning fórmula. While I love their first récords, theyre not innovators per se. And me , personally and particularly, reject the use of "industrial" for rock bands with electronic elements. NIN is not like Throbbing Gristle and the likes.

NIN now for the future
Super underrated comment lmao
Picture a nine inch nail through a potato.
You are at 420 likes so i didn't like to be kewl
I can't believe I haven't seen this. This is by far the best version of this song I have ever heard. Are we not men? We are DEVO!
I love both Devo and NIN. How the hell did this slip by me???
therealmanos rite?!? fuckin ditto!!!
therealmanos Obviously Because you didn't buy the Devo anthology which came out 15 years ago
Because nobody but me bought the Super Cop soundtrack but me... lol
both bands have origins in Ohio!
Right???? OMFG
I was a raving Devo fan in the earliest part of their career. I had NO idea they did this and I'm blown away.

One thing you don't have to worry about is Devo covering a song and it sounding exactly like the original...
Too right they go out of their way to sound different from everyone else...that's what makes them devo...
So right ur how they can cover another bands song and make sound new and original is part of the mystique that was DEVO
It's all there though
@@ernestinemaloy6752
DEVO will always be around us
D E V O!
It starts so intense with that beat and then that absolute *shit* CMI guitar sample comes in, and it’s suddenly a fantastic musical prank. Live forever, Devo.
Great point!
I do like the poor guitar sound there by itself, too; I think it makes the track sound more dastardly wicked!
They should do a whole album of NIN covers.
Closer would be very interesting.....
@@malcolmkerr9781 I was just thinking the same thing LOL
Ruiner...
Lyrically 'Closer' actually is already halfway a Devo song tbh.
@@malcolmkerr9781 i wana pet you like an animal 😅
You thought it was NIN, but it was me, DEVO!
KONO DEVO DA!!!!
I first heard this while driving and the helium voices almost made me go off the road laughing. And the accentuated "no"!
I know these guys are hilarious and more serious than any other artist
That is what I thought, too. Who sped this up? Nope. It is a very funny but good cover by Devo. The band made it sound like they wrote it.
For me, it was the "GOT MONEY!!!" that totally won me over for the cover... :D
@@zbearxtube yeah the " God - *MONEY!* " part was funny!
Also the way they say "die" and "bow down" :P
Reznor should cover one of their songs.
Matt R. Heck, yes, he should. Both bands sound so similar. Please, Mr. Reznor.
Nine Inch Nails should cover Mongoloid
My vote is “Beautiful World” since Trent singing an anthem of post-modern irony is about as on-brand as the man gets.
Gotta go with "Jerkin Back And Forth" for NIN tô cover.
Gates of Steel
I love that for a while, both bands shared the same drummer... lol
I love this comment and that most people that will see it are going to have to Google this now.
Josh Freese was damn incredible with NIN
Is that Booji Boy saying “Money!”? Dude. Every cover DEVO does is fantastic!??
Well this was highly unexpected; Devo once again amazing as always.
Ok im on a head like a hole spree, this is the best sounding cover ive heard so far.
You hear the miley cyrus cover?
This is one of the best covers of any song I have ever heard.
Absolutely amazing. As an early 80s punk/alternative fan I can't believe a Black Mirror episode with Miley C. led me to this Devo cover I had no idea existed. Full circle. Hell Ya!!!!!!
At 3:09, amid the sardonic children's laughter, there's a sample of a voice that sounds like it says, "Whip it."
DEVO. The coolest nerdiest band ever..
While I'd been a fan since the college kids down the street in the 70's turned me on to them, I finally went and saw them at the University of Utah student union "Union Ballroom" with no expectations out of them live more than any other band. I was blown away! I've still never seen a live band that rocked harder. People who don't know sell them short, but they are an A list musical talent. FWIW.
I thought Weezer won that title
I got to see them here in Colorado a few years back. The opening band was Octopus Project. Total enjoyment.
one of my all time favorite covers. devo wanting to do somebody's song is the ultimate attaboy kid.
Devo covering NIN, fugg'n awesome!
Legends have a knack for covering NIN
never meant to cause you any sorrow
never meant to cause you any pain
That snes sound on the bass line is perf
Accidental Sounds that is exactly what I thought! What do these bands share? Awesome.
It's a MIDI sample, the Commodore Amiga demo scene used it way before the SNES.
Bizarrely, this now means Devo and Miley Cyrus have something in common.
I was going to say something mean about Miley, but after growing up in Tennessee and the entertainment Industry, I'd bet she's had a full view of De-evolution, so respect to her.
I'm pretty sure DEVO did it first y'all
@@ginastarke2 I'm a big music snob but Miley Cyrus is actually legit talented.
AFI covered it, too.
@@suburbanindie the problem with Miley is she was actively encouraged to be weird by her handlers or whatever you want to call them. A&R? I dunno. But trainwrecks get attention.
This is so friggin' good! If you're going to do a cover, put your own spin on it. They made it sound exactly like a Devo song
Tim Tucker Yes, they did! Good job, guys.
Holy fucking sh!t no way two of my favorite music groups collide. Had no idea this existed this is freakin legit
This makes Devo sound like Front 242.
LOVE front 242 but I don’t see that.
Maybe Nitzer Ebb
@@aljourgenson that may be a little more accurate.
I just found out about this.i saw frontlind assessmbly live year ..it's like those bands..kinda.
Wow, first time I've heard this. I have one NIN album but have loved Devo since they started and I totally love this! What a great version!
I always felt that the original was similar in feel to Devo tunes like Peek-A-Boo and Girl U Want. This isn't a slam, just meant to say that Devo was influential.
Hi Kevin 😂
Another powerful song is no longer blocked.
*I would LOVE to see Devo literally doing a Cover of "True Faith..." by New Order.*
I don't know where this track has been hiding, but it's something fantastic.
Man this cover is so much fun, very Devo and the unique instrument choices in some places genuinely makes the instrumental sound like it could've come out of the original System Shock alongside Energy Systems.
I want to hear them do a cover of,"Big Man With A Big Gun". ;)

Who cares who did it first. Devo owned it! NIN is awesome but Devo are masters of this kind of stuff!
Micah Evans I know. Devo are cover masters. But covering NIN, that is so neat.
Who did it first? th-cam.com/video/SIfh0XMrg6w/w-d-xo.html
Whoa, Devo should have said f u to the corporate overlords and just gotten heavier like this. This is sick.
ikr? They should have gotten heavy instead of just playing their old hits
Those pitch altered voice samples KILLED me.
Is there anything on the entire planet more weird than Devo? If so, I haven't found it yet and I've been on the internet for a long, long time.
DEVO is a special thing that came along at the right time. Weird? No weirder than something like a Beyonce' or a Lady Gaga....just sayin
The Residents

Nothing beats the original, but a worthy cover nonetheless.

Its better than the original
Great music vibe

well it's cool that they didn't try to imitate NIN, and kept it to their style. It can't beat the original, but it's still pretty catchy.
nice work there devo , wish I'd known of it sooner . now they just need to cover ,closer and perfect drug .
They should cover the whole Broken and the whole Fixed albums....that would be fking awesome!!
dandel351 if they did would be better songs
I think a cover of Down In It would suit them well, or Sin.

It's a shame to think kids these days have never heard this version and only know the NIN cover from "Rock Hero V".
+m3tafunj stop trolling
i feel the same way about the song Hurt..
Nin did the original you idiot
Way to be totally wrong NIN wrote this song it's the first song off their debut album DEVO covered it because they are fans of Trent Reznor.

leave it to DEVO to spud it up again
