    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?

His hair? His retarded old band? Who cares? His music is some of the craziest stuff I've ever heard and very impressive.

Why doesn't he take a leafSkrillex is just rehashing the basslines we've heard over the past couple of years from dubstep artists everywhere. Why doesn't he take a leaf out of SBTRKT or Rustie's book and look to take dubstep somewhere it's never been before?… Full Review »
