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

I agree with the OP.

This is a pretty subjective poll. While Skrillex is no doubt popular, I personally do not enjoy his music, nor do I listen to any dubstep whatsoever, as I dislike that genre of music. I do, however, like the Beatles, and thus voted in favour of them.

Op is living in a fantasy world, he is no better than a preteen girl who has "beiber fever". Dont worry op, in time, you and many others will get over skrillex and dubstep. And figure out that dubstep music has been around way before you even heard of sonny more (however u spell that has been's name)

I know this is a 'troll' thread (I say that loosely because I know it is just to get a reacion out of people, saying anything is bigger and or better than the Beatles sparks an outrage (See Oasis))

Anyways, I disagree, I believe the Beatles are much better because of the simple fact that it seemed like the Beatles culd seemingly take on any genre of music (during its time) and set a bar while at it. Also, claiming that Skrillex has more 'memorable' songs or that 'most peoplke know his beats' is a complete lie.

More people hum a Beatles tune, be it Yesterday, Let It Be, Yellow Submarine, or even Lady Madonna or Eleanor Rigby. I have yet to hear someone hum a Skrillex song.

BUT - I can give it to Skrillex that he's helping to make more popular different types of Electronic music, but even then, many bands have done this (see - Oasis, Radiohead, Pink Floyd, and much, MUCH more).

TL;DR: No, Skrillex isn't bigger than the Beatles.

No way Skrillex invented Dubstep, he is alpha. Unlike your beta Beatles who just copied everyone else and made terrible music.

A competitive players main goal is to win.
A casuals main goal is to have fun regardless of whether that results in a win or loss.
It has nothing to do with individual skill or knowledge, it has to do with the reason you play.

Oasis is the best band in the world.

It was really the same chords over, and over, and over. Some of the stuff for Sgt.Peppers was good, but even then, it was stealing from something else in some way. Only Revolver was truly innovative.

Actually, there are a number of much less popular electronic artists who make much more unique and varied electronic music than Skrillex does.
Not really, because Skrillex invented EDM and Dubstep. I've heard a few impostors, but nothing that even comes close to the original.


This is when I call shenanigans and know that OP is just joking, because anybody that listen to Dubstep knows differently.

I just saw a green monkey nut shot a small tan lizard(?) in a gunny sack.

Finally, someone who agrees with me. The Beatles are just overrated, there are a ton of bands that do what they did. Skrillex really is a unique and original artist.

If you want to bang your head to hardcore dubstep then ♫ Muffler-Machine ♫ is for you!
Now remember, this is my theme song >:A
Note: Make sure your head is away from your desk unless you want to suffer major brain injuries.

Have fun on the flood, if you go there!o(╥﹏╥)o

I would agree if i didnt hear the same noises and beats in the previous song.
