Hardcore Devo: Volume Two
Hardcore Devo: Volume Two is the last of two collections of demos by the American new wave band Devo, released on August 23, 1991, by Rykodisc.
The Hardcore Devo albums are collections of 4-track basement demos recorded by the band between April 1974 and December 1977. The early recordings were made using a TEAC 4-track recorder and incorporated guitars, Minimoog, bass guitar and homemade electronic drums, the latter built and performed by Jim Mothersbaugh.
Some tracks are early versions of songs that Devo would later rerecord for their studio albums, including a few that became some of their best known (e.g. "Be Stiff"). However, the majority of the tracks were never revisited and remained unreleased until the Hardcore Devo compilations.
Hardcore Devo: Volume Two was out of print for years; however, it was re-issued by Superior Viaduct in 2013, both as a vinyl release (May 2013) and a CD containing both volumes and bonus tracks (July 2013).
