Gerald Casale and Mark Mothersbaugh wrote "Fresh" for Something for Everybody, the 2010 album that ended a two-decade wait: Devo hadn't put out a studio record since Smooth Noodle Maps in 1990, and this one brought them home to Warner Bros., their original label.
The song carries a three-way production credit, John Hill, Greg Kurstin and Santi White, while Bob Casale and Van Coppock handled the recording. The album was pieced together between July 2007 and mid-2009 at Mutato Muzika in West Hollywood, and it proved to be the last Devo record with Bob Casale, who died in 2014.
