Foreign Friday - Does It Offend You, Yeah?


"Spend an hour in the company of Does It Offend You, Yeah? and a couple of dozen pints and you’ll find yourself on the receiving end of a brilliantly bilious torrent of hatred and disgust aimed at the mass music media, major record labels, sell-out ‘underground’ acts...You’ll find yourself, essentially, in the company of the most uncompromising, un-corporate-cock-swallowing, angry, passionate and dedicated-to-the-cause band in the UK right now. And one who knows the pitfalls of having a gorge-like gob: “Everyone who has a strong opinion gets shot down for it. But we’re fighting the good fight.”
The passionate Brits just released their new album, Don't Say We Didn't Warn You. I loved their last album, so I had high hopes for this one. It sounds a little different then I expected, but I think I love it more for that. It has edgy electronic punk tracks, 80's like dance tracks, a little bit of pop, and a lot of Brit heart. Whatever it is in the UK that makes people make great music should be bottled and sold. You can listen to the whole album here for a limited time.
