People hate Skrillex because he basically went full retard on electronic music and became a massive mainstream success because of it. There's a huge audience of people who just want to have their consciousness bludgeoned out of their skull for whatever reason and if they can have a dance whilst they're doing it then all the better. Skrillex gives them what they want time and time again. He may be a one trick pony but as long as people are buying what he's selling then people like us will hold a vague resentment towards him.

 

His success isn't annoying because it's mystifying; his success is annoying because it's so easily understandable.

I don't think we are hating him .. we are just laughing at the massive joke he is.

 

Being a college age American, I have to deal with a lot of people that think Excision, Datsik, Rusko and Skrillex are the end-all-be-all of electronic music.

 

Fucking awful, especially when he plugs AFX and all his fans jizz over Come To Daddy and only Come To Daddy.

Edited by Xyrofen

That happens all of the time. I have a friend into shitty metal who though come to daddy was cool cause it kind of sounds like a metal riff and windowloicker is cool cause of vagina/tit picture.

 

i love music way too much to bother considering these opinions.

Hi Lucy, i think you should try reading Lube Saibot's post, you will not be disappointed and you will see that the critiques go much farther that what you just laid out. beautifully so in fact.

WHO THE FCUK IS SKILLREX LOL

 

This. I presume he must be what all the kids are listening to? Seeing as I am slightly jurrasic I wouldn't know him if I we smashed faces together round a sharp bend.

 

That clip is funny as fuck though.

Horrible Band Obviously Not Listening To Its Influences

 

 

SAN DIEGO— Puddle Of Mudd, a dreary nü-metal rock band that cites Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, and Metallica as influences, is obviously not listening to those influences. "Zep, Sabbath, Metallica, Maiden, Aerosmith—growing up, that's what we listened to, and that's what shaped our sound," said lead singer Wes Scantlin, whose mopey, monotone vocals in no way bear the stamp of Robert Plant, Steven Tyler, or his other idols. Scantlin, who made the comments during an interview Monday with Spin reporter Charles Aaron, failed to say which part of Puddle Of Mudd's atrocious new ballad "Drift & Die" resembles "When The Levee Breaks" or "Sweet Emotion

Skrillex added to the BBC sound of 2012 list :w00t:

 

Past winner have been Adele, Keane, Florence & The Machine.... so he is in good company. The Beeb obviously see potential in him.
