Always listen to the dubstep tracks posted here in the hope of finding understanding & insight, but i never like any of them. It's so weird, i love all kinds of electronic music, i really fucking do. But dubsteb appears to leave me completely cold.
Hmmz deeper thoughts about dubstep: it's immature as a genre, just a mix of raggae and electro. It's not fast enough, it relies waaaay to heavily on a single sound effect, it doesn't space worth a damn when you compare it to other electronic styles, i just can't see the beauty in this music. Yet. Maybe it's like when minimal was first introduced and became wildly popular while it was wholly unjustified, it being mostly a genre of clicks and bleeps and cracking sounds over a nervous beat. But minimal has evolved and actually become music since then, and i approve of what it is today. So eh who knows.

The reggae dubstep and the old school pure dubstep are both awful to me. If you think it's not fast enough then that is probably going to be keeping you from the genre as one of the cornerstones of dubstep is 140 BPM and 4/4 beat. I've always been a purveyor of the filthier, heavier side of electronic and metal but I don't really know how to quantify what I like. Maybe it's just the energy of all that unrelenting audio aggression. I like to call the current filthy dubstep the deathcore of electronics because it's out there on the fringe being completely fucking obnoxious and over the top and most of all unapologetic. The pioneers are still pushing things farther and farther with every new EP so maybe you're right about giving it time.
Here's something a bit different from the typical shit caspa puts out with one arrangement on loop for five minutes.

I am a dubstep fan I am not feeling the Borgore track, but sort of liking the RUF track posted by shaft.

I'm in 100% agreement with you Ryoki. I don't say anything because I respect other's musical preferences, but this is one I just can't make sense of myself.
That Muse track above is a bit of a departure for them. I kind of like it though.

see, i like it slower and more mellow. that clip you last posted was way too fast and it looped 8k times with a few different screeches in between. too each his own i guess.
