1. "The other major misconception that bugs Skrillex, he says, is when people claim he received a record-label makeover similar to much-maligned pop star Lana Del Rey." →

    Are people really claiming this or is this just an attempt to get some of that sweet sweet search engine traffic?? HONESTLY

  2. i'm still sorting through my feelings on skrillex, but i definitely think he's an heir to the whole nu-metal thing. →

  3. One guy’s wearing a Whiskeytown shirt and I am too shocked to not talk to him: “You like Ryan Adams’ pensive, gorgeous, pre-solo country band and Skrillex?!” He’s either too drunk or too bored with what I’m saying to respond. Later, I realize his shirt is in fact advertising the Whiskeytown bar on E. 3rd St.

    — Whew! Wouldn’t want a person to be unable to be reduced to a stereotype there.
