Answer

New Wave, a genre characterized by its experimental and electronic sound, was the primary musical style of Devo. This genre emerged in the late 1970s and early 1980s, and Devo's unique blend of quirky lyrics, satirical themes, and innovative use of synthesizers and drum machines set them apart from other New Wave bands. Their music often explored themes of consumerism, technology, and the absurdity of modern life.
