Album Review: Does it Offend You Yeah? - You Have No Idea What You're Getting Yourself Into

Does it Offend You Yeah? is a band that crosses the french techno sound, like those on the Ed Banger label, with the driven guitar sounds of indie rock. Their album is pretty much split down the middle between these two genres and some songs even encompassing both. The raucous french techno sound can get a little too much at times, however, there are quite a few songs that are worth the listen. This band measures on the brink of self parody, with song names like "Attack of the 60 Ft Lesbian Octopus" and "Epic Last Song" as the last song on the CD. It is definitely worth the listen.
TOP TUNES: We Are Rockstars, Dawn of the Dead, Doomed Now
