Skrillex: F*ck U Skrillex U Think Ur Andy Warhol but Ur Not!! <3 [Atlantic/Owsla, 2025]
After a nice 2011-2013 run as "the most hated man in dubstep" (only he wasn't dubstep really), the beaty L.A. noisemaker originally known as Sonny John Moore kind of returned to form with two 2023 albums, even winning a 2024 Grammy for the "collaborative single" "Rumble." But this comeback hoot-and-a-half is a who-knew? jamboree as continuously engaging and hilariously silly as its title. If there's a single expression of human feeling in the random verbiage that emerges here, I was too busy chuckling to notice, although "we make your eardrums bleed," while claiming too much by half-and-a-half, has its truth value if you happen to be sentimental about human voices and what many still call musical instruments.
