    I can listen to a lot of dubstep if I'm in the right mood. Skrillex etc. included. A couple of songs I can find on my phone are Breakn' a Sweat (Skrillex feat. The Doors) and some version of Pumped Up Kicks which I really like. My favourite thing about dubstep, though, is always going to be watching dancers rock out to it on Got To Dance or random YouTube videos. Popping/Locking + Dubstep just works.

    I would never listen to dubstep willingly and I do not understand the appeal.

    For all yall not into the filthy stuff, check out some "Liquid Dubstep". It's a lot more mellow and melodic. For example, I love this song: Little Jinder - Youth Blood (12th Planet and Flinch Remix) - YouTube

    You don't have to post in threads like these; we already know you're wrong.

    There is quite a bit of dubstep that I like, though I'm more of a fan of liquid dubstep myself.
    But I do quite like this track by Tristam

    I don't have a big opinion on it though, as I primarily listen to Drum and Bass alongside Hardstyle.
    Eyyyyyyyyyyyyy

    People who like dubstep don't seem to understand that you can actually have bass without destroying your music for it, too.

    Gadzooks, you're right! I just deleted my entire Dubstep folder. Thanks for opening my eyes. :aimsmile:

    dubstep can be very good I've been to a couple of club nights with it and it was always a good night.

    Yeah because people only listen to a single genre these days, and couldn't possibly have greatly varying musical tastes.

    I can only imagine that this is what people said about guitars when rock'n'roll kicked in.

    You say this as though rock'n'roll is best way to listen to guitar music.
