I take it all back, American's can be subtle, as demonstrated by Devo, classic new-wave-art-rock, popular in the charts in the 80's but well aware of themseles in the continuum from krautrock, Zappa and Captain Beefheart

Synth-pop is now having a massive come back, as is all things 80's (or is that over already), which explains why Devo have reunited and are on the road again after 35 years since their first gig.
