Vinyl Collection #2: Skrillex - Bangarang

My 2nd vinyl pickup was a bit more spontaneous. I ventured into HotTopic and decided to take a look at their vinyl selection. I found this one and figured, well, some electronic music must sound awesome on vinyl, so I picked up my second vinyl.

Skrillex - Bangarang (2012)

1. Right In
2. Bangarang
3. Breakn' a Sweat
4. The Devil's Den
5. Right On Time
6. KYOTO
7. Summit



I had already owned this album on CD before this, so I obviously knew all the songs before. My favorite song is The Devil's Den (video below), with Right In and Bangarang being a close second and third. I like all the songs except for Breakn' a Sweat, as I find the vocal clippings incredibly irritating.
I'd say this album is Skrillex' best yet, though it's nothing mind blowing. Mainly I like this EP best because it feels more put together. It feel more like a solid record rather than a few songs he made while messing around on his computer.

I do have to say that after having my first vinyl on an impressive gatefold, getting one in a standard sleeve was rather dull, but that's with no fault to the music. It does come with a nice small poster with the credits on the reverse side, which essentially takes place of the lyrics sheet. Also included is a download code. Not a bad buy, but nothing super special about this one; though I was just happy to have another record to play.
