Seems to have taken the country by storm. Time after time it comes up everywhere I go now. Whether it be a band trying to make a come back, they find that the only appealing way to vote for the crowd is by placing this lucrative piece of shit in it. Took this new movement at face value and accepted it's not my type of music, but when I see the grasp of rock and roll being eliminated, I can't help but feel like humanity is losing its sanity.
After hearing dubstep for the first time, I genuinely believed it was a band, which is why I gave it the benefit of the doubt in sounding the same. But seems bands I once liked have taken this route. Although I was young, I must admit Korn were right up my street. But their new material have this crap installed, I mean come on! That's like Kim Jong-il deciding that democracy's a great idea.
This time a month ago, I was working the Plymouth fresher's ball as photographer, and during my break I went for a waltz to see what was going on. Seems they'd invited some 'talent' from America to perform. The only thing that bemused me was, the layout of a 'live' dubstep show. For instance, when you go see a live band playing, you see them at their freshest and playing on the spot and synchronising as one. But instead there was a massive mixing desk, and some tosser dancing around with a mic in his hand. Not once did he sing, instead he was insulting the crowd telling them "You're all a bunch of c***s".
Sad to say, this new movement was invented by the British. Not one of our greatest moments, I must admit. but seems to be having just an impact as the great British takeover in the 1960's - 1970's. Can't say I was too pleased when Chase and status took it into their own hands and covered Foo Fighters' 'Rope'. If it's not broken, then why fix it?
As a final conclusion on opinions and such on this lucrative and talentless slop, I can happily say that; Dubstep = shit. It's an immutable mathematical constant.
