NEW YORK (AP) \u2014 You know the band Devo, right? The guys with the funny red plastic hats and jumpsuits? The New Wave<\/a> musicians behind the silly \u201cWhip It\u201d video?<\/a> They had that odd, spiky ’80s vibe? Well, it turns out you may not know as much as you think.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The new Netflix documentary \u201cDevo\u201d is an eye-opening examination of an Ohio-born art-rock band that argues they were perhaps the most misunderstood band on the face of the planet. It debuts on the streaming service<\/a> Tuesday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe were trivialized and pigeonholed,\u201d co-founder Gerald Casale tells The Associated Press. \u201cThis documentary allows us to talk about what we were thinking and what we are motivated by to create what we created.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
