Does It Offend You, Yeah? (DIOYY) – “You Have No Idea What You’re Getting Yourself Into”
Track Review By: Miss Raquel
DIOYY is the abbreviation for the band, Does It Offend You, Yeah?
DIOYY are often compared to Daft Punk, Justice, Muse, The Prodigy and Digitalism.
These are guys are known for stage diving and breaking instruments during their live shows, and here I thought this kind of behaviour was left in the 90s, I guess not.
How did they get the name, Does If Offend You, Yeah? They decided the first thing they heard when they turned on the TV was going to be their band name.
They switched on the TV and a show called, “The Office” was on and the character, Ricky Gervais said, “Does it offend you, yeah? My drinking? That’s how they got their name, Does It Offend You, Yeah?
DIOYY was nominated for Best Breakthrough Band at the DJ Magazine Awards.
For their track, “Lets Make Out” They pulled an all-nighter and used some broken gear and turned out this dirtiest clean dancefloor track.
Tracks, “We Are Rock Stars” & “Feels Good Being Bad” deliver huge choruses that incite moshpits, screaming and stage smashing; yup this is UK lingo for destroying property.
DOIYY are not your typical skinny, subway tanned Scenesters but regular kids interested in kicking butt with synth and Marshall Stacks.
I give DOIYY 2/4 beats.
