Song I am working on (needs more verses), would be very keen to hear feedback on lyrics and chord progression. Asthma bad today so voice not on top form unfortunately.

You should try to do some different types of chord phrasing alongside the progression you have. try sustained notes or try to make it not so repetitive.

i love these threads.
>so repetitive
Fuck, that’s definitely not what I was going for. 7 chords is quite a lot for one of my own songs, although I have only been playing guitar for eight months.

here's a short 13 minute folk EP i made with my gf. sorry about the bandcamp shill but its all i have.
hope you enjoy :)
somebody keep the thread up for the next 30 minutes or so. gonna record something a bit more involved.
yeah i can tell there's a good use of a lot of chords in it, however the progression goes by so fast that it sounds like the chord changes are frantic. sometimes less is more, family

my original "Walk Around" that I've posted here a few times before. i wrote it for some girl I was dating back towards the end of 2017. im trying to appeal to that tumblr-girl demographic lmao

Pretty good user, works surprisingly well on acoustic.
Eh this didn't really go as intended but here's me fuckin about with a song I wrote a while ago.
I quite like it, really nice lyrics. Descriptive and communicative without being obvious. I don't have as much of an issue with the chords themselves as the other fella but I think it'd benefit with a bit of a stronger vocal melody. I think that's what's contributing to it sounding kinda "samey" rather than the chords themselves.
>tfw no music gf
But yeah this is comfy little album. Obviously y'all aren't going for technical perfection or anything so I won't critique it on those terms, it's nice for what it is.

Yeah I think you're definitely hitting that target demo right on the mark. Really like that dirty guitar tone and you have that rough around the edges vocal quality that's always really cool. Not really my go to kinda music but it's definitely some good shit.
Nice work, not sure I agree that you need more verses though. Perhaps a middle 8 or just an instrumental section. I can hear the Dylan influence.
I do agree with though. Due to the strumming pattern it does get a bit repetitive. Maybe try finger picking for the verses? Up to you. Considering you've only been playing for 8 months, the fact that you've got an actual song finished is very impressive. When I was 8 months in I was still pleased with playing a riff over and over again.
I like it. I'm getting mid-noughties alt-rock feels from it. Sounds like it needs a full band behind it. Really like the ending. Excellent!
Here's my effort.
The main progression is pretty cool but it repeats so often that by the end it gets kinda grating.
Fair enough. I still like it though, normally I play it in a higher key so the vocals take a bit more precedence so it's probably not typically as grating. Was really just kinda trying to find something to add to it with my electric, though I don't think that really worked either but oh well.
Thanks for both your comments on my piece (OP). Glad you both like the lyrics. I think my voice lets it down a bit too listening back, as I say my asthma was bad this afternoon so I was out of breath at the end of each line. Will continue to experiment with the style of the song to command more attention from the listener.
I really like this. Guitar reminds me a bit of late Bert Jansch, but you have a much better voice than him. I like the electric guitar riff too.
I like this but I think you have gone a little too spartan on the guitar melody at the start, could use a bit more going on.

Demo of a song, im not sure whether to keep the oo's and ah's or make them bass and synth lines

Taking RHP requests if you guys want, I love these threads.
do 24 senpai
Started working on a song for the first time after picking the piano back up. Don't know if it works, though.
I like the oos and aahs. I think they work better than a bass or synth would. In fact I wouldn't add much to it at all: your percussive kind of playing hints at everything that needs to be there, and the lyrics are great in a true stream of consciousness kind of way. For that reason I'd say maybe sing them a little softer - they stand on their own pretty well, so maybe try and work your voice more around the melody than the words? It's a great song, man.
I don't know what language this is, but it's got a hell of a groove to it. Your playing is spot on. Gets a little more intense than it needs to be toward the end, though - I get where you're going with it, but the groove you've got and the melody don't really know if they're rock or if they're more laid back, if that makes sense. They would work great either way, but not both.
Your vocals are on point, man. Kind of reminds me of Dashboard's stuff. It really doesn't feel like nine minutes at all, weirdly enough. Well done.
Not bad. The oo aas were a bit odd at first but grew on me the more I listened.
Great guitar work.
OP again with another song of mine. I've worked hard to address some of the criticisms of my last song, would be keen to know if this is an improvement.
I love the chord progression. Certainly doesn't show that you haven't been keeping up the piano lately. Your voice is very smooth too but you maybe go a little too high for your vocal range at a few points. But otherwise great, quite Neil Young like.
>Red House Painters - 24
Messy first half, forgot how rhythmically odd the beginning is while trying to sing. Thanks for the request!
That's a big compliment, thanks man.
24 is my favorite rhp song
