Something to think about.

Let's say, the entire band was playing 1/4 tone down of conventional tuning.

Without having anything to compare it to, i think most listeners won't even notice.

I fucking hate western notes.

Isn't that what AnCo did on Feels?

Noted

no one would notice except for maybe other musicians

Depends on the listeners.
I always used to get a fucking headache from that bob sinclair song "feeeeel the love generation"
I swear his voice was flat and I have never actually checked this but... did anyone else notice? Also that female cover of Fuck it by Eamon ... so flat and literally hurt to listen to.

What's your point in this case?

I guarantee 99,9% of the listeners wouldn't notice it. It would take someone with perfect pitch or a very trained ear to notice a quarter difference in pitch.

i wrote a bunch of songs using non-traditional frequencies, and intervals. nobody every really mentioned anything about it, but some of the chords i tried came out pretty ugly, so i think people just didn't care.

If the strings were in relative tune to each other, your chords would just sound normal.

The non-traditional intervals you tried probably created the dissonance.

Quarter tone intervals can give a very unsettling mood though:
