    Wow. Someone found a way to make Dubstep even more annoying. Bravo!

    • Daemonworks

       Oddly enough, I found this to be significantly less grating than the majority of dubstep.

      You obviously haven’t heard “Chainsaw Calligraphy”:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UexCBJF_n-4Hearing that is when I knew dubstep was going to be big, its capacity to annoy parents is infinite.

        It works.  See: my son.

       This. That is a most excellent tune with a similar theme. http://itunes.apple.com/gb/album/timber-original-version/id416393430?i=416393450

    Funny, I’ve been using the phrase “obnoxious power tool-step” for about two years now.

    It’s a bit bloody annoying. Plus: no gloves? No mask? I hope this home improvement shopping site’s got a good lawyer.

    Not bad. But who would use a circular saw for a 45 degree cut on that 2×4 when a compound mitre saw would work so much easier, and be more fun?
