Does It Offend You, Yeah? are a British electro-rock band from Reading. The band
is made up of four members: Morgan Quaintance (vocals, synths, guitar), James
Rushent (bass, vocals), Dan Coop (synths) and Rob Bloomfield (drums).
Does It Offend You, Yeah? are often compared to dance-oriented acts like Daft
Punk, Justice and Digitalism. However, NME has also compared them to bands like
Muse and !!! due to their heavier, more 'live' sound. The group are known for
their raucous live shows, which often end in stage diving and broken
instruments.
They have remixed songs for major acts such as Muse and Bloc Party. They
supported The Cribs on the NME Awards Tour, which took place at venues across
the UK and Ireland at the start of 2008.
The band revealed the origins of their name as being from British sitcom 'The
Office'. In an interview with NME.com, synth player Dan Coop explained:
"Everybody thinks the name is some kind of statement but it's a quote from David
Brent in an episode of 'The Office'. "When me and James Rushent first started
writing music together we decided to put it up on MySpace. We needed a name to
put as our profile name so just put what was the first thing that was said on
TV, we switched it on and Ricky Gervais said 'Does it offend you, yeah? My
drinking?' so we just went with that. No thought went into it whatsoever."
