Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Use mdy dates Шаблон:Infobox artist discography The discography of Devo, an American new wave band formed in 1973, consists of 25 singles and 9 studio albums. Devo was founded by Gerald Casale, Bob Lewis and Mark Mothersbaugh. Devo currently consists of brothers Mark Mothersbaugh (synthesizers, guitar, lead vocals) and Bob Mothersbaugh (lead guitar, lead and backing vocals), Gerald Casale (bass guitar, keyboards, lead and backing vocals), Josh Hager (rhythm guitar, keyboards) and Josh Freese (drums). The band rose to prominence in the US during the new wave era with their single "Whip It". The band have released nine studio albums, ten extended plays, fourteen compilation albums, ten live albums, one soundtrack album and twenty-five singles.

Before signing a record contract with Warner Bros. in the US, the band released several singles on the independent Stiff Records label that charted in the UK. Devo followed up with their debut full-length album Q: Are We Not Men? A: We Are Devo! in July 1978. The album reached No. 12 in the UK and No. 78 in the US. In 1980, Devo released Freedom of Choice, which went Platinum in the US and Gold in Canada, making it their highest selling album. Their 1981 follow-up, New Traditionalists, peaked at No. 23 on the American charts and was their final album to chart in the UK. Devo's chart success slowly fell throughout the decade until they released their apparently final studio album, Smooth Noodle Maps, in 1990; it failed to chart in either the US or the UK.

In 1996, Devo released a multimedia CD-ROM adventure game, Devo Presents Adventures of the Smart Patrol, through Inscape. Members of Devo also began recording together under different aliases, including the surf rock-influenced the Wipeouters and Jihad Jerry & the Evildoers. From 1990 through 2009, no new albums under the Devo name were released. However, a new single, "Watch Us Work It", was released as a digital download in 2007 and as part of a 12-inch EP in 2008. A new studio album, Something for Everybody, was released on June 15, 2010.

A tribute album to Devo, entitled We Are Not Devo, was released by Centipede Records in 1997 and featured various artists—including the Aquabats, Voodoo Glow Skulls and the Vandals—covering some of the band's songs.[1]
