Does It Offend You, Yeah? Bring Chaos to the Interface

Does It Offend You, Yeah? never intended to be an actual band. Nor was their name chosen on purpose. "We just did the tracks and decided to setup this MySpace account so we could just send a link and then people could have a listen," singer James Rushent told Spinner when they stopped by the Interface. "Then we switched on the TV and Ricky Gervais was on there and he said, 'Does it offend you, yeah?' If we'd known that we were going to end up doing this, we probably would have picked a better name."

The band, thanks to a slew of blistering shows at this year's SXSW and a forthcoming opening slot on Nine Inch Nails' summer tour, have garnered a bevy of attention from music fiends this side of the pond. Their bass-heavy tunes move massive crowds -- almost involuntarily -- and their shows often result in injury and broken gear. Their stop at the Interface was no exception.
