Quadeca - I Didn't Mean To Haunt You REACTION/REVIEW

[@sealex6890]

This, in my opinion, is one of the most surprising albums of all time. Quonka blew expectations out of the fuckin’ water, man. Suggestion (There’s no way you haven’t guessed it at this point): Silent Alarm by Bloc Party.

I love that smags points out every arpeggio in every song

[@smags1082]

Yuppp

[@1gnore_me.]

arpeggios are life

[@oskarallen]

fantasyworld is meant to be a kind of prequel. It's essentially a suicide note. The place he's talking about is some interpretation of an afterlife or death. He compares death to these comforting things like his moms bakery in Maine or a cabin in Sweden. I like to think that the climax of the song could represent the moment the noose tightens and that portion of the song is the time it takes for him to die with him "floating mountains away" at the end to the fantasyworld, but that's really just a speculation. This albums concept is absolutely amazing.

[@jaaqob2]

26:25 there is in fact a movie to this album great video as always!

[@Yesimthatgreenguy]

Crazy ass album especially considering it’s self produced by quad who is not known for this type shit AT ALL. Def one of the best albums of 2022

[@KidVisionReacts]

Quadeca said on social media that "fantasyworld" is a flashback to before the character took his own life. It's about how he wanted to find a better place and escape. I cried to this in my reaction video😅

[@blizzardtangent36]

thank you for your lyrical dive into everything you listen to. ive been in love with this album since it came out, but you have a way of making all the lyrics make sense and it makes everything a lot more cohesive for me the next time i listen to it. love your channel!

[@smags1082]

Thank u!

[@vincentmenegio2442]

The way I’ve always interpreted House settling is that quad is feeling resentment and wanting his mom to be with him where he is, so he selfishly turns on the stove to kill them and bring them to him, so Danny brown adds to this by rapping from the perspective of carbon monoxide. However quads plan doesn’t work as heard in fractions of infinity where he can hear his mother but he cannot fully communicate, repeating the term “those words don’t do you justice” and saying “I hear a voice without a face” (some of this is completely true in context of the album like the Danny brown verse, but some of this is my personal interpretation based on listening to it multiple times so take it with a grain of salt 👍 )

[@danielmcgrath680]

From the fantano interview, quad said the carbon monoxide element is him leaking it from the furnace in hopes his mom can see him as carbon monoxide poisoning is a very common cause of ‘ghost sightings’, it makes you hallucinate then ppl think their houses are haunted. I also like your interpretation too though :))

[@flying_ace_]

THANK U SO MUCH FOR THIS VIDEO RAHHHHHH and im glad u enjoyed the album its very special to a lot of us :)

[@trevor245]

I had never even been able to respect youtuber music before this album and was heavily prejudiced against it when I first heard it around release. The only reason I even listened was because it was getting amazing reviews but I was absolutely ready to write it off as nothing special, but man it's just so good. It commands attention.

[@brandonthesteele]

Really good art can come from anywhere.

[@shrmpizza8660]

That's how I found out about this album too, i didn't know about quadeca

[@vennii_]

QUAD DID. QUANKA DID 🐐

[@Davidsssrt]

ik that perfect from now on reaction is on its way…i feel it ❤️

[@danielmcgrath680]

This album is so crazy, best album of 2022. The concept, songwriting, production is just insane. Knots is the best one or picking up hands. Or house settling. Or born yesterday. Or tell me a joke. Or fractions of infinity. Literally a 10/10 album

[@smaugchamp3790]

JUST GOT BACK FROM DISCOMFORT BY THE BRAVE LITTLE ABACUS. DO IT!!!!!

[@schwuischwui]

WE GETTING OUTTA KRUSTY KRABS WITH THIS ONE!!!!!!! 🔥🔥🔥

[@Evanmnm]

Never expected to like this album at all when it came out but it surprisingly has become one of my favs of this decade

[@witchduck2230]

these videos always make me appreciate the albums from a new perspective, keep it up!

[@smags1082]

Thank!

[@mustafa8066]

Its funny you mentioned that it was cinematic and you'd watch a movie starring him, cause he actually dropped a full film alongside the album its a nice watch def recommend.

[@octopoos8443]

This is one of my favorite albums of all time. It was the first album I heard that really showed me what could be done with music and to this day I still love it to death. Awesome video!

[@luhawn6040]

you should listen to Spirits They're Gone They've Vanished by Animal collective. its very interesting

[@glitchin2547]

surprised you picked up on so much first listen, goated reaction brother

[@mocapcow2933]

What is that goofy ass emoji? 😭😭

[@SupernovaSteven]

Quonka Quandingle Quantimus the Quifth is awesome, this and scrapyard are both in my rotation frequently!

[@itsjvck1]

If you want another album with this sort of vibe/cinematic feel, I’d recommend Exuvium by Crywolf. It legit sounds like you’re watching the entire world end from a cabin in the woods

[@PJ-se6ue]

He wrote and produced and mixed all his shit it’s wild also the dude featured on the last song is the drummer for swans on to be kind

[@finlaylonghurst]

QUONKA DID !

[@finlaylonghurst]

he did all the production hismelf its crazy

[@benjadamon]

Thanks for doing this! I had requested it, so cool to see you do it. Unreal album.

[@KarK1ttyy]

this is such a amazing album and i think you should start a patron so u can upload ur full reactions because for a album like this i think that would be amazing! also fun fact if you don't know the feature on the closing track is thor harris whos mostly known for his druming on most of the modern SWANS albums

[@mememan3799]

Bro I can't belive Smuggy is reacting to Quonka!

[@ivanitchycock]

You should give the album The Moon is a Dead World by Gospel a listen, super cool prog influenced post-hardcore. Same with Wildlife by La Dispute, I think you'd love to pull the lyrics apart on this one

[@shitkitty147]

I like it. Some parts of this reminded me of the act 'Subtle'. Off kilter fast pace hip hoppy rap with guitar and harmonies. Their album 'for hero/for fool' or their debut ' A new white' would be a good starting point.

[@kotc1798]

you gotta do Hypochondriac by Brakence or the new Underscores album

[@gravemusicc]

ong

[@Aoverwith]

An album I highly suggest is The Doors self titled debut album from 1967, one of the greatest albums of all time!

[@CycleOfJudges]

Ive made this comment in other places, but to me Fantasy World is the climax. Fractions of Infinity is the good ending, Cassinis Division is the bad ending. Couldnt explain it but it makes perfect sense to me

[@hunterepsi]

quadiki torch

[@benstigsengaming]

I like how you analyze and interpret in the videos you make, and you do so very well.

[@feli6277]

kind of crazy that you actually react to this, love to see it 😂❤😊

[@james___]

'welcome to hell' after cassinis division is actually a crazy twist 💀

[@somethingcomforting-td4ht]

i love this album! been watching for a while, and ive been meaning to drop an album suggestion. i saw you enjoyed the prettier songs on selected ambient works vol 2, so i think youd like the album aia: alien observer by grouper. it has a much more layered and otherworldy sound, with liz harris' (the woman behind grouper) beautiful vocals on top of the ambience, instead of just being instrumental, like ambient albums usually are. definitely my favorite ambient album and i think youd really like it.

[@skilledfully]

yesssssss Alien Observer is my fav ambient album ever, it would be so cool to see a reaction to that

[@dogmanbitehurt8243]

Someday will be This Heatin’ time

[@phixd1649]

I'd guess we are about the same age, and idk how you kept it together, especially Fantasy World, the excitiment and crash you felt at 19:11 broke me...

[@elmofroggy163]

My favorite album of 2022

[@chuppychoo]

LETSGOOO WAS WAITING SO LONG FOR THIS

[@Wizardthe99]

more elliott smith and more alex g man i luv ur reactions

[@venori5785]

LMAOOO the fact that "hellfire" by black midi played right after the ending is ironic as hell 😭😭

[@JoeyIAlexander]

The Girl, the Cat and the Tree - Lausse the Cat OR Mourn - Corbin

[@joeyfoster-wd6fs]

The ending of fantasy word is so fucking beautiful man

[@lucabloor1086]

not black midi coming in after lmfao, amazing album and great review :)

[@Mrzco]

A little late but I believe fantasyworld (Quad said this himself) was a prequel. So I believe the song was right before he died, kinda makes it dark.

[@Lleimzjames]

Do James Blake first album or Overgrown. I'm sure they will like it.

[@ZenixRulez]

Love the videos! A few recommendations: Nurture - Porter Robinson (light summer electric with fun production) Koi No Yokan or White Pony - Deftones (very heavy, sexier and heavier radiohead imo) Hypochondriac - Brakence (very experimental emo rap, glitch pop)

[@Jasper-nl1rk]

love your reactions brother 😘🙏

[@malcolmthecreator9009]

Saying literally me about fantasy world is so fucking bonkers man

[@dubssalamander]

its crazy im pretty sure its 100% produced my him, you should check out his song "Sisyphus" personally my favourite, the production is insane!

[@MeganCodair]

You should totally do what could possibly go wrong by Dominic coke Huge fan btw

[@zzaarrcco]

Chronologically, fantasy world is the first part of the story where he is alive then it goes to sorry4dying etc.

[@AbhigyanLanka]

by the time i get to phoenix - injury reserve. super experimental album.

[@clafoutiancestral8889]

Some suggestions: Death Grips - Exmilitary, or The money store Cocteau Twins - Heaven or Las Vegas The Pillows - Happy Bivouac Pixies - Surfer Rosa

[@anmts5565]

amazing album we love quonka pls listen to the powers that b by death grips 🙏🙏

[@Bringadingus]

First album you've listened to that I think is straight-up inconsequential and uninteresting. But hey, that's just my opinion! Still holding out for Xiu Xiu or some kind of good entry-point to noise (Black Dice, Yellow Swans, Diamanda Galas, Roly Porter)

[@Davidsssrt]

samee i don’t love this one and i agree smags should def react to knife play or a promise

[@feli6277]

This album is not for everyone and I don't even believe it's amazing but I find it very interesting and has some passages to which I come back frequently

[@AlextremoLUL]

Your opinion is sadly wrong

[@Bringadingus]

@@AlextremoLUL nah

[@aylegs6764]

fantasyworld happens before the album starts, it's like a flashback song

[@honestlynuts__]

The last song had the swans' drummer btw

[@ajv1437]

WHAT

[@nathanhunt3104]

King Krule - 6 feet beneath the moon The Smashing Pumpkins - Siamese dream Hum - You’d prefer an astronaut

[@naughtpointfive]

You should check out his scrapyard series.

[@koablevins7387]

you should listen to either obsidian by baths or no now by clarence clarity, two of my fav albums but nobody has ever reacted to either of them it's so sad

[@theq6965]

Fantasyworld is about him fantasising about k**ling himself He thinks that if he’s dead he’ll go to this perfect world where none of his problems can follow If this album was in chronological order fantasy world would be the 1st song

[@Lildeterioratingmemory]

If you liked this you gotta do Frailty by Jane Remover

[@feli6277]

Yay! I am returning to it recently, it's a fun album 😊

[@Soupytimeee]

You should check out less ready to go by Michael nau doesn’t have to be for a video even it’s just such a cool album and the first song is just flawless

[@blakestorbakken6851]

The album movie went crazy too

[@SupaHotWrap]

Idk if you’ve listened to little simz already but definitely check her out I’d say to start with “sometimes I might be introvert” also maybe hopefully dive into more king krule 🙏 maybe start with 6 feet beneath the moon

[@zxr9291]

just want to say if u do get to feedbacker that u should probably listen to it without pausing. or if possible try not to interrupt the song transitions when u pause. as it is designed to basically be 1 long song with the different tracks just marking the different parts of the song

[@volta2007]

you should do fiona apple next maybe when the pawn, or volta by bjork

[@coming_up_roses]

QUAD DID

[@prodjaydon8d]

my goat.

[@aurielazure]

Listen to hypochondriac by brakence. It’s a hyperpop album but it is on par with Quads album in terms of production and quality.

[@hihello4642]

Yo! Just came across the channel and I find it pretty dope! I've been going through the video's that contained some of the albums I was familiar with! Just to give out some suggestions out there in the future, Add Shelter Island Heights by Scott James for some more folktronica action and Volcanic Bird Enemy and The Voiced Concern by Lil Ugly mane for some indie rock weird shit. And you know what fuck it, Ramona by Kill Bill: The rapper for some jazz rap just to get it out there, looking forward to future uploads!! 👍👍

its always cool getting to see you react to more recent albums, love your reactions man and even with albums ive listened to before its nice seeing you experience it for the first time or give more insight into certain aspects, also id love to see you react to The Ape of Naples by coil🫡

[@KarK1ttyy]

seconding this ape of naples is godly

[@lawrencewithadoubleux8]

you could try his previous album, From Me To You, which is definitely a lot more inconsistent but theres a lot to get out of it conceptually and sonically, also watching the album movie on his youtube might help with the album clicking! 🫶

i love you
