...Firmly rooted in their eponymous theories of musical "de-evolution," Devo burst onto the musical scene in the late '70s with the memorable "Jocko Homo" and "Mongoloid," and continued producing songs like the oft-covered "Girl U Want" and, yes, "Whip It." The band carved its own niche through minimal instrumentation, precise rhythms and sing-songy atonality; it became known for its cover versions, which "de-evolved" classics like the Rolling Stones' "(I Can't Get No) Satisfaction" into their bare structural elements.

House Republican whip Tom DeLay (R-Tex.) has called the raid a "frightening event." What is truly frightening is that, for five months, the rule of law was replaced by the rule of the mob.
