Does It Offend You, Yeah?
29 May 2006 :: posted by TravisDoes It Offend You, Yeah? is the Myspace band du jour. Delivering some twisted robot rock, DIOYY’s music is a total assault on your eardrums. Unsigned and without a record release, the popularity of DIOYY seems to be spreading like wildfire solely on their Myspace, word of mouth and the trading of a few mp3s. This is viral… Marketing’s wet dream.
With only four tracks up on their Myspace… it’s surprisingly difficult to choose what to write about. All their tracks sound like Daft Punk totally mutilated. Like, the robots are malfunctioning and throwing sparks. Influenced by Justice, Daft Punk, Mr Oizo, Alter Ego… they never seem like an imitation, but rather like they should be filed along side. Glitchy synth, ripped apart, Does It Offend You, Yeah? won’t stay unsigned for long. In 2007, you’ll be saying you knew them when.

[...] Côté électronique aux machines déglingués et crachotantes, le titre We are Rockstars du groupe Does It Offend You, Yeah? est une bonne découverte. Là encore, ca décape et ca s’écoute sans arrêt. Les deux créateurs Sideshow et James sont anglais, de Reading, et apparemment ne sont pas encore distribués, mais ca ne devrait pas durer. A noter, le groupe semble avoir un intérêt pour le Japon, d’où ce titre Battle Royale avec des paroles du dit film et ce voyage d’un des deux membres du groupe au Fuji Rock Festival. [...]
