CHURCH OF MISERY 'HOUSES OF THE UNHOLY' (Rise Above).OBTAINED ENSLAVEMENT 'SOULBLIGHT' (Napalm).SYLVESTER ANFANG II 'COMMUNE CASSETTEN' (Blackest.Nine minutes of gorgeous metal guitar fireworks haunted by ethereal slightly time-bending effects and the frantic mind-numbing fretwork that Buckethead is so famous for-it's all here and the result is an amazing song by any measure, containing what is probably my favorite Buckethead solo ever put to tape(the last outro solo-gives me CHILLS every time!) So fucking good, the album is worth it for this track alone. 'Soothsayer' is a tribute of sorts to Buckethead's aunt and the passion and love are obvious-this track utterly slays. That 'better' happens to be 'Soothsayer', one of the penultimate Buckethead tracks, brimming over with fiery, goosebump-inducing guitar work and an emotional weight that is rare to find in these sorts of 'shred' albums. Things start off incredibly strong on this outing, with the 1-2-3 punch of 'King James' (fierce ultra-melodic metal riffing), 'Gory Head Stump 2006 The Pageant of the Slunks' (equally fierce wah-ed out neofunk workout with some blistering Slayer style soloing) and 'The Fairy and The Devil' (a piece reminiscent of the epic masterwork 'Colma', just heavier and more rock oriented.) It's hard to even catch your breath as these three spin by but if you can make it through there's better on the way.

The best tracks just floor you from the get go and refuse to let you get up throughout their durations. Even the slightly more boring numbers, of which there are two, have at least ONE super awesome beyond good mindblowing piece of fretboard bitch-making in them that makes them seem 100% cool in retrospect. It's easy enough to see why-every song on this album completely shreds in some form or another. 'Crime Slunk Scene,' a recent tour CD, is definitely of the latter school and may very well be my absolute favorite Buckethead album of all time. The best albums are total go-for-blood 80's metal style neoclassical facemelting suites, which while slightly recidivistic are not in the least bit postured or anything less than totally fucking wicked. The worst albums are pointless wanking go-nowhere wah-ed out funk-athons, so insistent on their own validity that they eschew backing tracks and anything resembling a good riff in order to just throw down a few licks and call it a full-length. At this point i'm quite jaded towards and the guy and in some cases have become downright disillsuioned-every record you're going to be guaranteed some epic shredding but not every album guarantees outstanding songs. I own about 35 Buckethead albums, probably hovering around 50 if you include the Praxis material and other divers hellos and pop-ups. Along with this hard-won fame has come a dearth of new albums at last count Buckethead's just over 50 or so SOLO studio recordings (if you factor in band/guest appearances his discography easily eclipses 100 releases.) This makes it really fucking difficult to be a Buckethead fan, timewise as well as financially. His star has risen exponentially thanks to his tenure in Guns n' Roses as well as various projects with Les Claypool and scores of video game soundtracks.

I have vivid memories of forking over $50 at Let It Be to acquire the 2 CD 'Bucketheadland' record on John Zorn's Avant label and being all pie-eyed about how fucking awesome it was going to be (it was, and i still have it, almost 15 years later.) Now things are different everyone knows who Buckethead is, most everyone's probably heard something by him and if not they at least know he's some sort of guitar player. You're welcome.I remember a long time ago Buckethead albums used to be very hard to find. And go listen to Elephant Man's Alarm Clock.

Honestly, like most fans on this page, I'd suggest you figure out some way to support Buckethead in whatever way you can in addition to utilizing free streaming options. There are even free downloads of single tracks on the Pikes like Door One. If you can't swing even $2 for an album, just stream the sample tracks on Bandcamp / Buckethead Pikes or enjoy the dozens of albums on Spotify (Pikes and OG cuts) or other streaming options. I'm about to buy 7 damn Pikes albums on Bandcamp for $15 for fuck's sakes. $6 can net you three damn Pikes albums, man. Pretty sure all albums such as more recent releases Galaxies (292), Foray (291), Liminal Monorail (288), Through The Looking Garden (284), and In Dreamland (280), along with what I assume is the majority of Pikes are available at just $2 or (pay what you want passed the minimum).
