Default Devo - the worst band from new wave/post punk scene?
What you think about this band?

I listened many new wave/post-punk bands and I think Devo suck. I can't stand their robotic sound without a melody.

I think Devo are great. Here's one of their more underrated songs. In this live version, the guitar is pretty prominent, so maybe you can notice the melody more.

saying Devo has no melody is like saying, I dunno, something else that is false

Devo defines pure new wave.

They are no longer subject to criticism. They are among the unassailable.

I feel like you're the kind of person who hates metal music because "it has no melody."
