Ok I'm gonna have to be honest here. I like the oldies kinda feel to the songs. That's the only good point I can find I'm afraid. Now to me the repetative banging on one note is hard to take. Another thing that I didn't like is all three songs sound the same. It's good if people can attribute your sound to you, but the songs cannot be too similar. The guitar tone probably would have been OK used in a different context. For these songs it just didn't fit that well. It sounds to me like your rythm is a bit lacking. This is probably because I didn't hear any drums so it could just be me. The melody on "walk in the park" was ok but it strayed a bit from time to time. So in conclusion I would say work on your timing and phrasing. Try to polish up your scales and learn to move around the fret board and not stay in one spot. Try to not write all your songs in one key! Variety is good. I like the fact that your willing to write your own stuff that's great man. I think you're just trying too hard. You got a good base to start with so keep up with your practicing and lets see some more stuff on here! :)
