I dislike Skrillex. I dislike the mentality of his hardcore fans. I dislike his hair. I dislike the I <3 Nerds movement that he embodies. I dislike alot about Sonny Moore. Alot more than I will go in to with this post.
The video for "Bangarang" shows hooligan children and an ice cream man. In a somewhat Vin Diesel via Spike TV production, Mr. Moore puts his man pants on. Wait or maybe their Ellie Gouldings.
The video is an epic adventure that the basic Fight Club or World of Warcraft geek is going to find 'awesome' and 'amazing' but that anyone who can get in to an R rated movie without an adult will find a bit cliche'. Been there, done that, took the Advil. The cookie cutter revenge video has been done since Fee Waybill played non stop on MTV, Music Television
The song though- the song without the pathetic video, I do not dislike. I don't like it either so don't get all 'ahHA' about it. Its tolerable but only because its annoying in a good way. I like trying to decipher the 'salsa on my balls' lyrics..wait, thats NOT the line?? Couldn't be really, as there are no balls to this act. But it sounds like that so in my joy of music parody, I'm going with the "sa sa sa salssa on my balls" tag line.
Look, this music is like eating jellybeans. Its all well and good for awhile but honestly any more than just a season worth makes you want to puke and after awhile every color taste the same.
As for you Sonny, enjoy your 15 min and consider a makeover.
