whole

so yes, it was bad

What about stuff like Flagellation for Atonement

That had effort

Other than the improv in the middle

I thought out the beginning and end, and winged the middle

You said you liked that song

It had effort in it

Even the improv had effort to stay in the same aura of the rest of the song

Not to drift too far away

So, your opinion on effort/effortless is wrong wrong wrong

Now, what we can say is, when I over think something, it tends to end up as shit

I start stripping away aspects that were the basis of something

Condensing it, simplifying it

Streamlining it

Like an Amerika article

@The Sleep of Titans#7390 try to understand me rather than play with my words

all of Yersinia Pestis is good

Try to be better than Burzum, @spaceplacenta

Instead of trying to pwn dungeon synth dudes

That's too much

"be better than the best"

Unattainable

Setting myself up for unneeded stress and failure

Don't need to hit the bullseye, just aim for a better target

If you fall short of greatest, you might be great.

your basic musical dialogue/language itself is still not right

your phrasing, going from one phrase to another etc.

this is for put together tracks, it's fine otherwise

improv, etc.

It's not in a typical riff format

Usually don't revisit melodies

A -> B -> C -> D and so on

Flagellation doesn't revisit any prior melodies

Crimson Massacre did this

I don't really like repeating things over and over anymore

So a lot of the melodies are played twice

Which could give it a rushed feeling

Not letting the melodies stay longer
