    Dubstep is great you philistines

    The vast chasm in quality and listenability between good dubstep and average dubstep is insane. Good producers do so many interesting and fun things with the sounds, melodies, and rhythms they manipulate. Average dubstep producers just try to come up with the filthiest drops they can, and that gets boring very quickly, like mid to late 90s house music. Bad dubstep producers just try to damage your speakers with distorted noise, and nobody likes that...

    I fear from the children of tomorrow as they will come up with something worse than dubstep

    They did already, it's called trap.

    This is some of that BAD dubstep. Honestly, the trend of remixing video game music to have dubstep beats isn't necessarily bad, it's just usually done so poorly because remixers are like "Hur hur nostalgia nerds and dubsteb! It's all good to them!" when those guys really have no fucking clue.

    Whereas I consider this to be in the realm of good (or better than average) dubstep.

    I just realized that Alvvays is opening for the Decemberists show I have like fifth row tickets for on Tuesday. I don't actually know them at all outside of this one song, but "Archie, Marry Me" was one of my favourites of last year. Cool!

    Imagine Dragons is so boring. And the lead singer tries so hard to be all gravelly and shit and I hate his voice.

    That Radio active song sounds like all the worst parts of Nickleback and Creed combined into one ultra boring butt rock song.

    and I wonder about my neighbors even though I don't have them
    but they're listening to every word I say

    That second video isn't really dubstep though

    it's more typical EDM techno stuff

    I like that Ephixia Remix though. Usually I don't like 8-bit video game music, remixed or otherwise, but that's alright

    Ephixia is better when he does Dubstyle, though.

    imagine dragons is pretty bad but I don't know if they're nickelback bad

    The first time I heard it, which admittedly was at the chorus part, I thought it was a new Nickleback song.

    Also their band name is terrible and they should change it.

    they wrote a song for riot games to use in an animated promo for their end of season world tournament, as in they were paid for their services

    That Imagine Dragons record is awful, as are all Imagine Dragons records!

    At the same time, I don't mind people enjoying a video which dramatises an online hobby

    It's just the same kind of thing as when sports ads for the Six Nations or whatever have all these rearing, magnificent animals for each nation in CGI or whatever, and I have no problem with that. Just a bit of a shame that the Rugby uses cool heraldric beasts whereas that LoL video has, you know, some skinny white dude in a hoody sitting in a chair.
