I made perfect sense. In fact, it's impossible to convey my message more plainly than how I conveyed it.
The only thing I didn't elaborate on, a 7/4 beat or whatever usually sounds more interesting and creative and will perk up my ears more than the same ol' 4/4 beat. But 4/4 beats work fine too usually. It doesn't really matter. I'm just saying, if you write off bands just because they're considered "mathy", you're losing out on lots of incredible, forward-thinking, creative songs.
