An electronic-based rock four-piece from Reading and London, Does It Offend You, Yeah? made a mark with their raucous live shows and high-energy music that drew comparisons to !!!, LCD Soundsystem, and Digitalism. The band signed to Virgin and released its first album, You Have No Idea What You're Getting Yourself Into, in 2008. (The album included a free digital download for the Live at the Fez EP.) Members Rob Bloomfield (drums), Dan Coop (synth), Morgan Quaintance (vocals, synth, guitar), and James Rushent (bass) took their show on the road in early 2008, supporting the Cribs on the NME Awards Tour. ~ Chris True, All Music Guide

Does It Offend You, Yeah? have been compared to dance-oriented acts like Daft Punk, Justice and Digitalism.^[who?] However, NME has also compared them to bands like Muse, and !!! due to their heavier, more 'live' sound.^[1] The group is known for their raucous live shows, which often end in stage diving and broken instruments.^{[2][citation needed]}

They have remixed songs for major acts such as Muse and Bloc Party. They supported The Cribs on the NME Awards Tour, which took place at venues across the UK and Ireland at the start of 2008.

The band revealed the origins of their name as being from British sitcom The Office. In an interview with NME.com, synth player Dan Coop explained: "Everybody thinks the name is some kind of statement but it's a quote from David Brent in an episode of 'The Office'. "When me and James Rushent first started writing music together we decided to put it up on MySpace. We needed a name to put as our profile name so just put what was the first thing that was said on TV, we switched it on and Ricky Gervais said 'Does it offend you, yeah? My drinking?' so we just went with that. No thought went into it whatsoever."^[1]

Does It Offend You, Yeah? will be opening for Nine Inch Nails for part of the 2008 North American Tour. ^[3]
