Everything you know is wrong.

I disagree.

I don't really like The Beatles, but they are much better than Skrillex. U2 is better than Skrillex.

Skrillex really is a unique and original artist.
That's what I'm trying to get at by saying he invented Dubstep. Nobody else does what Skrillex can do.

It's really not that much different from the days of two turntables and a microphone.

Dat illuminatic.

Skrillex music is not revelutionary, people did music like skrillex's before him and in even better ways. If skrillex has done anything to this generations indie electronic music it is to ruin it. He basically did other peoples work in an easier way to understand to people. I'm not saying he's bad i just want to say that he did not do that much for this generation. Coming from a musician.

Not sure if srs.

Let me put this straight. The Beatles are hardly a benchmark of music genius. Skrillex barely does Dubstep, let alone "invented" it. Made it popular along with other similar genres, most definitely, but he sure as hell wasn't the first. Besides which, he had a career based on appealing to the mainstream and rode the sellout bow-wave for as long as he could. Don't get me wrong, I like some of his music and did so before most people had even heard of him, but there are several other artists in the same genre alone I'd rather listen to.

Dear tomorrow, Find some sensibility, Respond to emotion.

Mass media, Mass pessimism, Mass Denial.
My television tells me to panic, but I don't think I'll listen.
The apathetic force us to persevere, with their backwards priorities.

I hate Skrillex.
I hate The Beatles.


That is all.

LOL! I will say I like both the Beatles and Skrillex, however it would be impossible to compare them.

Because having opinions and stating truths makes you a hipster. I also like how you used your own flawed analysis to invalidate my points, because you know I'm right.

Would you say that you were a fan of Skrillex before he was cool, and that he's too mainstream now?

Sonny [Skrillex] plays instruments, too. The computer is a fantastic instrument, too.

It is the soldier, not the reporter, who has given us freedom of the press. It is the soldier, not the poet, who has given us freedom of speech. It is the soldier, not the campus organizer, who has given us the freedom to demonstrate. It is the soldier, not the lawyer, who has given us the right to a fair trial. And it is the soldier who salutes the flag, who serves the flag, whose coffin is draped in the flag that allows the protester to burn the flag.Father Dennis Edward O'Brien, USMC

It's funny how people seem to think old music is automatically good and popular music is automatically bad.

I liked some of his first music, but he's just being too generic now he knows most of his fans will support him without knowing he's being lazy. It's not as simple as "I liked him before he was popular, now I don't because he's mainstream".

If we disagree, it's nothing personal, opinions are opinions.
Antagonizing me to build a false sense of worth is so damn cute.

Joking or not, your posts are stupid enough to make me want to hurt you. -_-
