"Main Offender" is a song from The Hives' second album, Veni Vidi Vicious, as the fourth track. It was released again on the compilation Your New Favourite Band. The guitar riff bears a similar resemblance to their previous single "Hate To Say I Told You So".

The song was also featured in a commercial for the lingerie-brand Agent Provocateur, which showed Kylie Minogue riding an electric bull in her underwear, with Main Offender playing in the background.

The song is featured as a playable track in music video game Rock Band, and was performed on stage by Harmonix Music Systems employees while showcasing the game at the 2007 E3 convention.
