To me it all sounds absolutely amazing. And that's all that matters to me. To me, every single piece of music by other bands and music artists in general that I have heard, sound nothing to me in comparison.
I think it's genius.
In your own thread, sure.
P.S: I don't understand how you can so easily do a 'critical analysis' of music, which is emotional - plus the fact that emotions are subjective.
The music is entirely about how it makes me feel, to me. Any so-called 'Critical analysis' of any music I admire completely misses what music is about at least for me. Music isn't 'intellectual' to me, it's emotional. I don't care how clever or smart or difficult to pull off Riff 'X' is, or how supposedly 'intelligent' the song is written... if it sounds like a bunch of crap to me I'll still consider it so. Conversely, I don't care how many people tell me that any of the music I listen to is not difficult or that it's easy to pull off, 'lazy' or 'apathetic', and I don't care how 'basic' or 'simple' certain parts (or even a lot) of the music I listen to is said to be. If It sounds awesome to me, if it makes me feel awesome, then I consider it awesome (at least to me).

That's the kind of mindset or attitude I want in my music. It's about the effect not how you create it - for me anyway.
As I said, if a guitarist does a supposed 'amazing' guitar riff (or a pianist plays an 'amazing' piano piece) that's said to be amazing simply because it's difficult. If it sounds like crap to me or not particularly moving in any way then I'm not interested.
I listen to music that I like the sound of and I enjoy listening to, period. That's the End of my analysis.
