Please add a "Some" option.
Because "yes" doesn't really describe it. (I only like Skrillex), and "no" would be lying.
But I very much like Skrillex.
 
i dont count skrillex as dub
i love dub but only cause of the faze clan using it in their vids

Skrillex definately makes some dubstep, including: Scary monsters (and nice sprites), rock n roll (will take you to the mountain), equinox (first of the year), and Hey Sexy Lady remix.

However, this is good quality dubstep right here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CJzfTZlEl40&list=PLA0F678E5236F846F&index=31&feature=plpp_video

I don't know what it is, but I can't find a single UKF artist I enjoy listening to.

I've listened to a ton of dubstep artists, and none of them even come close to the originality that Skrillex has. I dunno why, it just all sounds generic to me.
 
Funny, from what I hear Dubstep has been on the go for like 8 years, but it's only the last few months that I've started hearing everyone talking about it.
I don't really listen to electronic music, but I totally love the DigitalCorridor's Dubstep Guns video.
Seems like a style of music that is perfectly suited to trailers and motion graphics, so I'll go for a 'yes'.
(though I hear it's not cool to like it cause it was an underground sound that is now popular)
 
Skrillex is normal. Most of other dubstep is ****, too mainstream/gangsta these days, and everyone needs those ****ing wobbles or dumb vocals.
I like some underground wobbly dubstep, classic one and deathstep is kind of ok too.(Artists like Mantis)

That is dubba johnny, and especially in that song he's extremely original. Other artists that are amaziinggg are bar 9, flux pavillion, and noisestorm.
 
I listen a lot to bands like The Doors, Hendrix Experience, Led Zeppelin, Velvet Underground, Pink Floyd, Janis Joplin etc... I hate all electronic genres except dubstep. It's just crazy enough to be enjoyable :D House and Trance are too similar to mainstream pop. Hardstyle is crap and everything with a "Euro" in front of it should never have been made. But there is one thing I hate about dubstep. Why does everyone add these autotuned chipmunk voices to their songs? IMO vocals usually ruin dubstep songs.

I agree with the above posts about vocals. The background isn't too bad, I respect it. The vocals, which are auto-tunes, pitch changed, distorted, effect crazy are over the top and ruin a possibly good dubstep song for me.
