Does It Offend You, Yeah?

Does It Offend You, Yeah? é uma banda britânica de música electrónica/rock. Além dos seus próprios projectos também realizaram remixes para vários artistas como Bloc Party, The Faint, The White Stripes, entre outros. A banda lançou seu primeiro disco, You Have No Idea What You're Getting Yourself Into em 2008.
Recentemente lançaram um novo album chamado "Don't Say We Didn't Warn You". Confesso estar morta por o ouvir. Recomendo que ouçam o primeiro album, o som é incrível. É capaz de despertar uma fúria dentro de nós, despertar paixão e coragem.

“Natural talent should be rising to the top,” argues James Rushent, vehemently, “but it doesn’t anymore. The shit’s rising to the top… a lot of this album is two fingers up to a lot of people, the people that think that to be a successful band you’ve got to write soul music, which I think is fucking bollocks, you don’t have to do that… At the minute, if you conform and be really boring and obvious, you get rewarded. Do you need a heart anymore to listen to the radio? I don’t think so… It’s all the same, why are we giving awards out?... Talented artists are starting to go to the dark side. I said it to Plan B, I said ‘you’re first record wasn’t a massive hit but it was quite interesting, what are you doing now?’ He got really offended by that. I went ‘why are you getting offended by that? Is it because I’m right?’”
