[edit] Overview
The Hardcore Devo albums are a collection of 4-track basement demos recorded by the band between 1974-1977. Many tracks are earlier versions of some of Devo's best known tracks would later be re-recorded and used on subsequent Devo records on Booji Boy records [eg. 'Jocko Homo', 'Mongoloid'] but a majority of the tracks on the two albums are demos which were never re-used and remained unreleased until the Hardcore Devo compilations.
Volume Two has been described as even more 'Hardcore' than the Volume One with more 'experimental' tracks, but not without its share of 'Classic Devo', with their trademark sound already showing.
