No Skill for Skrill

Remember when you were little and you played with your gameboy or nintendo and just HAD to turn the sound down because it was annoying?  That is kinda what Skrillex is like.  People actually call this crap music?  It honestly sounds like beeps and boops from an Atari system.

Skrillex started out as the singer of the pop punk band "From First To Last" but after throat surgery he took a different route.  Using his real name, Sonny Moore would do solo shows with just himself and a harp player.  It gets weirder.  He goes on hiatus for a few years and comes back with the sides of his head shaved as Skrillex.

Dub step is taking over and it is killing real music.  The only people who listen to this music are at his shows where they can pop some ecstasy and dance like idiots.  This crap actually sells out major halls and clubs too!? I must be doing something wrong because I can make music like this with a gameboy and a computer.  Can you actually buy a cd of this music? Where would you listen to it, in your car on the way to work? I don't think so!

Why is anybody listening to this?!
