    Given the theory of de-evolution these Ohio brainiacs began expounding more than 30 years ago, it makes a sad kind of sense that Devo's first album since 1990's Smooth Noodle Maps offers such a charmless, base-level version of the band's synth-addled new wave.

    None of this would matter if the music had genuine quirk, but Something... is stuck in an eternally wacky MTV 1982 of the soul. [Sep 2010, p.91]
