Devo
Akron art-rock provocateurs of “de-evolution,” synths + jerky rhythms, red “energy dome” headgear, “Whip It.”
The B-52s
Athens, GA party band—surf guitars, Farfisa keys, camp vocals from Fred, Kate, and Cindy—“Rock Lobster,” “Love Shack.”
The Ramones
Queens punk minimalists—leather jackets, downstrokes, “1-2-3-4!”—Joey (vocals), Johnny (guitar), Dee Dee (bass), Tommy (drums).
The Cars
Boston new wave sleekness—Ric Ocasek & Benjamin Orr trading vocals, hooks plus synth sheen—“Just What I Needed,” “Drive.”
The Plasmatics
Wendy O. Williams’ shock-rock mayhem—punk meets metal—TVs, cars, and guitars sacrificed on stage.
