"Mongoloid" is the first single released by American new wave band Devo in 1977, on the Booji Boy Records label.

Over this, a swooping overdubbed synthesizer line featuring frequent pitch bend is played on Minimoog.

The doubled vocals are sung simultaneously by both Gerald V. Casale and Robert "Bob 1" Mothersbaugh.

Insightful editing techniques reveal the dreams, ideals and problems that face a large segment of the American male population.

The inside of the gatefold displayed the lyrics of the two songs in either blue or black ink depending on the pressing.

As Devo gained fame, Stiff Records in the UK agreed to release the single on their label.

In 2002, Devo performed a techno version of "Mongoloid" at a special show for the writers and producers of the cartoon Rugrats (for which Mark Mothersbaugh composed the theme song).

In 2007, Gerald Casale played an acoustic version of "Mongoloid" accompanied on the piano by Re/Search co-founder V. Vale at a re-release party for Industrial Culture Handbook.
