Seriously though, one of the truths about getting older is caring less and less about how those outside of your circle think about you. It's actually kind of cool actually. Less stress and less self doubt.

That being said I consider some of you here to be a part of my e-circle. You know who you are.

Good, so Ki is the only one here that can't handle it because he doesn't understand criticism.

Thanks for the analysis of my tracks but you didn't have to put too much effort into it. Could of just said it's ****ing boring. My point was that I want honest opinions rather than sugar coated bull****.

We all try to accomplish what we want to accomplish creatively, so we always look for feedback whether it's good or bad. The reason I post my music here is so people can tell me where I'm sloppy and where I'm good, and I grow from that. I'm not posting my music here to get my dick sucked. If that's how you feel the music should be portrayed, then I'll rid any of my music from this site from here on. I like people's feedback. I know other people as well. That's why this thread exists.

I'm not going to cry if people think I suck or think I shouldn't make music or think I'm an abomination upon the earth. I like what I do, that's all that matters. I share it because I know that if I like it there has to be a fan base and this being my passion I want it to be a career. I give a **** about gaining fans, but I don't give a **** about people hating it because you have to expect hate no matter what. So grow up.

I guess my album isn't actually metal, I dunno what to change the tags to though since it literally only has metal riffs

Unsurprisingly you missed my entire point. I'm not being a whiny bitch about negative feedback. My job is chock full of it. What I hate is when people base an artists talent from one song. That's barely giving the artist a fair shot. I also don't see how it makes a difference if someone records in a studio or not. I've said that to you that it means nothing to me. Stop assuming I'm whining when all I'm saying is if people want feedback, that's why they post here.

I don't care too much about feed back. I want fans. I just don't mind negative feedback but hate fake feedback.

Yeah, I understand your point. You don't understand that that's just part of getting feedback. You post a **** song, could be your only **** song, and that could be reason enough to stop people from listening to anything else. You could have a ****ty album cover that stops somebody from giving you a listen. You could be a complete ******* and that would stop people from giving you a listen. Maybe, just maybe, you post a photo where the part in your hair just didn't hit the potential listener right and that was reason enough for them not to give you a listen. Is it fair to judge a whole artist based on one song? No. Is it fair to not want to listen to more from an artist after just one song? Yes. I actually rarely RARELY listen to artists on the internet hypocritically. Most of you are lucky enough to get somebody that pays for studio time to give you a chance. And, in my professional studio time payed opinion, most of you don't actually suck.

Edit: My favorites are Mondo Bungle, 1Blankmind and I think it's Plainview that has the Rainbow Grey album. Least favorites are Ki and Frownland.

I think I can now conclude that the metal archives moderators listen to 3 minutes of the first track on an album and base their decisions off that.

Said it was experimental/ambient/noise. I mean yeah that makes up a solid 5% of the album, but come on.

What is this if it's not metal ququmatz.bandcamp.com/releases

I'm not commenting on this as a peer on this forum but as a straight out fan. This is one of the best releases I've heard from 2016 all genres included. It has a restrained organic feel to it that brings to mind, structurally, to me at least, Half Japanese, and texturally certain aspects of Sun Ra and The Art Ensemble of Chicago (and Sue Anne Harkey- if you've ever heard her stuff. I Tell You Everything (Just Not Outloud) ---masterpiece---) . I love how unforced and spacious it feels.

I feel like you've successfully and intentionally bookended it with the opening and closing tracks. I also assume that it is your intention to leave it as it is as improvised music. However, the opening track is in my opinion better because it's more hypnotic. At 11 minutes and change there's a lot invested in that final track.

I give this release 4 out of 5 stars.
