What do you think of their latest singles, assuming that it really is DEVO being as anti-DEVO as possible? This stumped me. If it really is DEVO, then this is absolutely genius because it’s almost like they’re aware that people don’t listen to DEVO or their messages, so they don’t want to be DEVO.

      It has historically been a way of stealing Spotify royalties but targetting big artists is more d difficult these days. It’s also a means of hijacking an artist’s audience, if only temporarily. Sometimes also used to fraudulently get things into DMCA databases. Happens to smaller artists like Lemon Demon all the time.
