Looking for some advice...

Hi guys, I'm 17 and I've been playing the bass for about a year I suppose. Recently, I've started a three piece band with some friends and we've recorded two songs without vocals.
None of us are really good at our instruments, but we think we can play pretty decently for being as young as we are. (Our drummer is 14.)
Anyways, I was just looking on some direction on my playing specifically, but any comments to our band as a whole would be nice.
We're kind of aiming for the punk genre. Somewhere in there.

Let me know if you have any suggestions or comments or anything.

And just for the record, on the second verse and the bridge of the first song there, I'm just playing freely, I don't have set notes...
Also, the recording doesn't pick up the B string very well =/

Thanks!
