Short lived okay, but one hit wonder generally means a
band that only had one hit song and they had many.  I
had at least 3 of their vinyl albums and I didn't consider
myself much of a fan.

The animated movie "Heavy Metal" featured Devo.  Not
B5 but it was SF.

If their devo-lution theory was correct by the time of the
B5 universe all music from Earth would be one note and
one rthym with no melody ...
