I kinda' liked it.

It's one of those tunes that grows on you as it goes on and I liked the tone of the guitar. The bass just adds that nice bit of glue to give its foundations.

Adrian, I'm not much of a bass player, at least a pissant compared to bapu (sarcasm)  Thanks for the observation.  I think the whole track sounds somewhat muted.  My songs seem to deteriorate the longer they're on soundcloud.  Strange days, indeed.

Good stuff! It's different, and you know what? I like it. Oddly refreshing and avante garde. Possibly early Pink Floyd (think Umma Gumma) frame work but more minimal. I will not belabor this post with production critiques because musically I think the pearl has been delivered.

I like it, David. I agree with there being a little to much delay on the guitar. Also, with cutting a little of the silence at the beginning.

Gerard,  I agree.  I was thinking David Lynch.  Thanks for listening!

I love it. The guitar tone, with the delay, I find very listenable. Perhaps the bass tone is too naked and uneffected by contrast. I know it's typically not done to put a small amount of reverb on the bass, but you might try that here, something in the small room category.
 
Unless you already put that on there? Try a Mid-size room?
 
The theme is simple and honest. Cool chords with that guitar. You've got a crunchy overlimit at 2:30 - I'd get that honesty out of there.  :)
 
Got lyrics? Put a waterfall behind it and you've got Rush's 2112!!!
 
cheers,

Tom excellent observations about space and reverb.  Sometimes the carpets don't match the drapes with respect to that.
 
You're the first one to mention the clipping. Its awful. Some day I'll do a new and improved version.
