What are those classic dubstep cliches? Here's a few to get us started:
Brostep - Slowed down drum and bass really. Term gets rinsed online, but I heard people referring to this in real life now, made me giggle and them come over al contemplative.
Referring to Dubstep as 'Dub' or 'the Dub' - I guess a lot of people, youngers, won't realise there's already a much larger and popular genre of music called Dub. Still cracks me up when I see people using this term.
Wonky - Genre name still cracks me up. No one used it anymore though right?
Intelligent - How many times does this pretentious cliche have to rear it's ugly head. It's music, it doesn't denote IQ/intelligence.
Gunfingers / shouting brap / shouting breeeeee - Can't lie, I've blatantly done this in my time. All about middle class kids who've only seen lengs in the Bill, popping off shots at the dance. Shower.
Mt. Eden - LOL, I don't think this guy really exists, or at least it's Doorly.
____ is ruining Dubstep - I'm sure I COULD argue, nothing can be ruining Dubstep, because it got ruined a long time ago. I COULD. But I wouldn't because that would be as cliche as this argument.
