    This is a pop record because its shamelessly hedonistic barrage of proven dancefloor tricks will obviously be more fun at home than in a club.

    It's not a tasteful formula, but that doesn't mean it's not valid.

    Is it a question of [Moore]simply not caring, or does he actually believe that his fans are too stupid to not realize any clear lack of progression and that they're simply being force-fed the same half-assed bass trends again and again and again?

    It's just sad there's so many negative comments. People shouldn't hate Skrillex. He's the best DJ mixer around. Bangarang blew me off my seat when I heard it for the first time. If you rated this 2 or lower, listen to Bangarang twice and then say this was helpful.… Expand

    Not terrible, but most certainly forgettable. How many artists get the chance to record a new song with the three surviving members of The Doors? One, as far as I know. Gratz on screwing that up, Skrillex. Can you possibly find a new pad setting? That sound was played out twenty years ago. We have computers and you have talent. Come up with something new and stop playing to the fads.… Expand

    This is terrible. Honestly, you have to try hard to annoy me in this genre, and this EP is loaded with poorly done, obnoxious tracks, with awful samples. Include all of the rehashed bass lines we've all heard before, and you have a short, and horrible album. You think Skrillex would improve after achieving sudo popularity, but instead he has degraded. Sad to see. If you want to bump some good fast paced dubstep, look up Acid Wolfpack - Coyote Kisses That song is 1000x better than anything on Bangarang. Last thing I want to say is that the actual Bangarang song is decent. It's worth a listen.… Expand
