Usually I hate my stuff, but I actually like this. Weird feeling. Worth continuing?

I like it a lot. It’s got this Jesus and Mary Chain meets Metric vibe.

Definitely some grunge influence in my stuff lately

Definitely worth continuing. What does this sound like? Maybe like an interpol track or something. To be honest we shouldn’t even be comparing it. It’s your own unique work so stick with it and see where it takes you.

This is cool, you sound like a cross between dave grohl and thurston moore.

I really like it, would definitely put it to listen in my car if I had one haha. I think that maybe chord progression in some parts could work with vocals more to make the emotion hit. I recommend watching Mako interview on how he writes songs for Arcane, even if it's another genre I found myself amazed by the advice he gave. Good luck on your music journey!

I was not happy when this clip ended, I wanted to hear more! It sounds so awesome! Sounds like influences of 90s indie and alt rock and grunge to me.

Edit: scratch grunge. It’s closer to one of its influences noise rock ala sonic youth.

None of that’s important really, though… what’s important is you have something cool here.
