15 Things Only Skrillex Fans Will Understand

"I go to shows and all I see is love."

If you're a fan of Skrillex, you'll have spent years putting up with people bashing your tastes from both sides. There's the metal/emo crowd that disses him for playing EDM, and there's the dance music fans that claim he's too brash and isn't a very good producer. You'll have suffered through these arguments for ages, despite knowing they're total nonsense. Skrillex's music is fun, chaotic and - as his growing fanbase proves - unbelievably popular. It's sad that so many people keep trying to buck the trend and criticise his music, especially given that his fans know him to be a genuinely nice guy and a really hard worker. He knows his fans appreciate him, and he loves them right back. This article is for the devotees that have been with the producer since the beginning. You don't mock his emo background or claim his music isn't "intelligent" enough. You love his public image. Oh, and you haven't just jumped on the bandwagon of fans saying they like his music just because it's suddenly "cool" to be a Skrillex fan. Real fans will appreciate everything in this list. You'll know all the trivia, all the secrets and all the eye-rolling clichés that his critics roll out. This list is about and for the true Skrillex fans.
