3 songs written in February - do they suck?

So I've been completely musically stagnant, pretty much since doing that Rush Is Loud cover last year. I heard about this thing called the RPM Challenge -- to record an entire album in one month (February). Well, it turns out that procrastination + stress at work + my own self-defeatism only allowed me to complete 3 songs (one's an instrumental, even). And I was wondering if you guys would like to listen, being as I'm heavily influenced by GLU.

If you think these songs suck, I encourage you to let me know. If you don't, that'd be nice to hear too.

Dr Wily, good to hear from you again, I fully enjoyed your covers of The Rush is Loud and No More Love.

Happy to see you've made a few more tunes, I can't wait to hear 'em! I'll let you know what I think.

in short, I don't think any of the three songs suck. I think they each have something going for them. I'm digging the vocals and the guitar on Ethernaut.

I've always been into instrumental music. There isn't always a need for vocals, in my opinion, I don't know what you have planned if anything for Turbulesce, but I enjoy it the way it is, but vocals would be welcomed. :) The song by itself paints a wonderful picture in my mind.

Metago, has a little "NIN-ish" flavor to it. That's just what I feel when I hear it. from the synth stuff to the line "this sentence is not true." It sounds very very cool. Just a quick question, at 3:30 you say something after "Metago" is sang, I can't quite make it out. You're voice at this point also has a hint of Matt Mahaffey in it. This is a fantastic song.

I was never good with giving constructive criticism, and in this case I simply cannot because I like what I hear. Thanks for sharing.

And here's to hoping you get out of that funk we all fall into. Because I would surely like to hear more.

EDIT
I noticed you had the lyrics up for Metago on your myspace. I feel dumb now.

I know the feeling... I have been tied up with so many other things that the tribute is being delayed... But I will focus on that asap so I can have it released by Summer... I really want this to happen asap... Its just been too long...
