Overall I liked the songs. As another member said, your guitar tone is suffering. To me, it wasn't as much the bleed as just a lack of character from the pedal(s) or amp. What gear do you use?
Also, “The final flight of the bumblebee” was odd, I liked where you were going with the heavy bar chords, but the opening progression was slower and less interesting than the original (I assume you were making a play on that original classical) Perhaps you might change the progression all together and make it more "yours" and not so directly comparable to the original? Just a suggestion.
End all was probably the best of them, although I wouldn't try to reproduce that (the overall beat/tone) into new songs you are writing, as the other songs could have been equally as good given some minor tone, production, and arrangement tweaks. Diversity is key.
Sorry if I criticize too much, I tend to do that. Overall, you guys have a lot of potential, keep it up, and good luck!
