Dubstep (and brostep) is truly garbage music. It is the lowest common denominator in the EDM world and thats quite a feat when your competition is happy hardcore, gabber, etc.
The music is banal and derivative, focusing overwhelmingly on one gimmick: "the drop". The fanbase is barely a notch above what you would see at "Gathering of the Juggalos", it gives anyone a run for their money in the most poorly informed fanbase category. But because it panders so effectively to the lowest common denominator, it has a very large reach and so it annoys me tremendously when I see a promising performer like Lindsey Stirling or Ellie Goulding attempt to ride the bandwagon gain more publicity.
If they want to pander to garbage in order to sell a few more records, then they can lie in the bed that they make. Maybe for her next album Lindsey can call Chad Kroeger and see if he wants to collaborate on an album. I hear he's got even more fans than Skrillex.
