Pitchfork | April 5, 2025

*Skrillex Unleashes 34-Track Album ‘Fck U Skrillex You Think Ur Andy Warhol But Ur Not!! <3’ in Genre-Bending Surprise Drop**

In a move that has once again cemented his status as a relentless innovator in electronic music, Skrillex has dropped a sprawling new album titled Fck U Skrillex You Think Ur Andy Warhol But Ur Not!! <3*. This audacious 34-track LP arrives with a host of unexpected guest features, including notable names like Jónsi of Sigur Rós, Dylan Brady of 100 gecs, Boys Noize, and Varg2TM, revealing a canvas painted with a dizzying array of sonic colors and collaborative flair.

The announcement came as a shock to fans, who have witnessed Skrillex’s journey through the soundscapes of modern EDM, most recently with dual releases in 2023—Quest for Fire and Don’t Get Too Close. Those albums demonstrated not only the evolution of his signature bass-heavy style but also an audacious embrace of emo-rap and experimentation that left critics searching for new superlatives. The Coachella 2023 co-headlining gig with Four Tet and Fred Again., emerging as a last-minute stand-in after Frank Ocean’s withdrawal, only amplified the anticipation around his next move—Skrillex remains an artist who twists expectation at every turn.

Following his Grammy win for “Rumble,” a collaborative effort with Fred Again. and Flowdan, and recent tracks like “Talk to Me” featuring Four Tet and Champion, there’s a sense that this latest release stands as both a culmination and a rebirth. As listeners dive into Fck U Skrillex*, they can expect to traverse atmospheres that blend the raw intensity of sound with nuanced emotional storytelling, a testament to Skrillex’s poetic evolution in the blink of an eye.

The album is rife with experimentation, drawing on multiple genres while retaining the frenetic energy that has become synonymous with Skrillex’s name. The intricate interplay of electronic textures and guest contributions offers a glimpse into an artist dedicated to pushing boundaries and dismantling conventional definitions of genre. Reflecting on art, identity, and the fraught legacy of cultural icons like Andy Warhol, Fck U Skrillex* feels as much a manifesto as it is a musical experience.

While the album’s cheeky title may suggest a playful irreverence, it also raises pertinent questions about the nature of artistic influence and identity in the digital age. In a scene where mimicry can often overshadow originality, Skrillex stands resolutely at the forefront, eager to defy expectations and redefine himself.

Listeners can explore this vast landscape of sound and collaboration by streaming Fck U Skrillex You Think Ur Andy Warhol But Ur Not!! <3* below, diving headfirst into a world that is as chaotic as it is captivating. As Skrillex continues to challenge what it means to exist as an artist in today’s music industry, one thing is crystal clear: he’s not just thinking outside the box—he’s obliterating it entirely.
