I am on the biggest D.I.O.Y,Y? Kick at the moment!
Does It Offend You, Yeah? are described as a "british electro band" despite the fact that their sound is distinctly heavier and I find most of their tracks don't really sound anything like electro but are definitely very remix-able.

I don't want to describe them in comparison to other artists but I guess its a curse any band has to tolerate when attempting to come up with a "fresh" sound. I don't think they are by any means original. I'd be more inclined to say they have made an attempt to ripoff Death From Above 1979 and it hasn't been a complete failure. Plus they have simultaneously lovingly embraced the electro scene with their hypemachine successful remixes. (DFA1979 are still irreplaceable)

Maybe one day they will remix their own album like death from above/mstrkrft kind of did.


Or like when Van She remixed their own new release.
