Whats to know about it? I doubt theres anything I could discover about dubstep that would make me enjoy it.
Unlike when I used to hate metal, but now I listen to the lyrics and actually know a little bit about guitar/drums/voices I appreciate it a lot more and its my favorite genre.
What does dubstep offer besides repetitive bass thumping with random noises thrown in?

Bassfreak said: people who hate on dubstep know nothing about it, and dont really even know what real dubstep is
no dude, people hate on dubstep because it sounds shitty. That song is OK but I would never choose to listen to it. People just hate dubstep.
Although I agree with bigworm about people hating on rap. The popular "rap" music isn't even rap 
it's the same parallel as in the dubstep scene.
it's sad but true.
thats exactly what i was about to say...that was exactly my point to that guy and he completely missed it
theres tons of great dubstep out there, just most of it is not super popular
dubstep back when it first started is drastically different than what it is now, most people who turly love dubstep and known it for a while argue that shit like skrillex and excision and datisk are not even dubstep, but a different genre, but i wont say it cuz i hate that word, im sure some know what i mean

I have listened to so much dubstep that people post on these boards or at parties.
Are you saying I should not believe my own ears??
ok well u probly know nothing about dubstep at all, and thats assuming that the people who play the dubstep at those parties knows sumthing about dubstep (which they probly dont)
anyone can hear a bunch of it at a party, that means absolutely nothing, at all
You are on a really high fucking horse you know that?
you know nothing about the genre, this is obvious
like ive said before, people who hate on it NEVER know shit about dubstep

That sounds like the shit my roommate would listen to before he went out to scorpio's on a friday night.
Also, the only electronic music that I've found that I enjoy listening to at all is dub. And I've listened to a gazillion dubstep tracks posted by shroomery members who all say things like

lol you think THAT'S good dubstep? That's shit, check this out.
[insert shitty video]
Dubstep sucks now because it got popular and is mainstream. 99% is shit but there's still that good 1%.
And then the cycle repeats.

How? I'm asking what I can do to appreciate it more. I gave examples on what made me appreciate metal more. I admit I don't know what it's about.

and all you can say is "man you don't know shit about dubstep" when the fact is that a lot of us have listened to A LOT OF DUBSTEP! It's all college kids listen to, and I've listened to like 1293156 dubstep songs that people have posted having this same argument. I didn't like any of them. I just do not like the genre, it is a simple matter of personal taste.
Dubstep sounds like shit to me.

No ones giving advice on how to appreciate it more.
You don't get it, try liking it more, you just don't know.
That doesn't help anyone like anything more.

Well pmb. You can start by knowing that there are actually other genres out there. They are so much different from dubstep its easily recognizable.
Such as house, trance, and drumNbass. Some of the sounds of dubstep doo hurt my ears sometimes lol. I only have a select few songs i like. But if you start listening to other EDM. you might find out that you like some.

Nope, I dont really care for this. I like electronic elements in music. I love Bjork, Radiohead, Portishead, etc. They have many electronic elements. It's more of the dance formula that I don't care for.

Dubstep sounds like shit to me.

you can listen to all the dubstep you want, the fact is that it could all be downlink, excision, datsik, skrillex, nero, rusko etc etc
i bet most of the dubstep you have heard, you dont even know the artist who produced it
i bet u dont even know the difference btwn a DJ and a producer
the fact is that listening to dubstep at college [parties, your never going to hear old stuff like old skream, old rusko (before he became brostep), DMZ (coki and mala), Kode9, loefah...stuff more on the garage side of things

you can't make anyone like anything.
they either do or they don't.
I'm only defending what the genre really is, and try to correct people when they consider the "dubstep" that they hear to be dubstep, when it really isn't.
