This song has some cool vibes to it!
My opinion here as you have critical marked down:

First...very nice acoustic playing! It sells the song for me. This has nothing to do with your playing or sounds you chose...your very good at what your doing. It's more structure then anything for me here...Your tones sounds awesome...maybe a touch to much effects but that's all choice.

I want to say nice intro...Perfect start..but I feel you need to bring this track some engery...Power ballad type feel as that's what I get from your track but lacking energy. By adding distorded guitars, leads and some full drums should help this...but not wait so long to achieve these into your song. Instead of repeating the same symbol rolls through out, bring in full set of drums...Don't get me wrong here...a few bars is all you need for the symbols Ride.

I do agree...it seems a little too long and a bit confussing. Shorten it up...the key here my friend, is to drag in your listeners...I was sold on the first bunch of bars with your acoustic...but was waiting for this song to kick in...after a minute went by...it sounded all the same and I lost interest.

Adding a vocalist to this project will make this a soild number. I'm sure there would be a line up of vocalist will to sing on this, if the structure is set right and it became a power ballad!

Overall you have the right ideas and hope you continue to work with this piece as you have something to could be strong and effective!

All the best to you...keep up the fantastic work!

Not enough variety in this to hold my attention. Too many repeats of the same thing. The intro with the acoustic was nice but overall the track doesn't seem to lead anywhere.

Also, quite a lot of fret noise on chord changes which is a bit off-putting (really noticible with headphones on)
