Yeah! I've always thought about how his mask has different expressions at times. They give me different emotions.

| I don't really like any album. He combines alot of styles through out them, though I'm sure I could pull out a good dozen songs I like from his collection. Great guitarist. |

I just bought: Sail On Soothsayer, King James, Siege Engine, Jump Man and Gory Head Stump on iTunes, and I have to say, I'm very happy with my purchases. Siege Engine and Jump Man both have very cool soloing, the latter reminding me of Jordan, and Sail On Soothsayer has to be the most beautiful song I've ever heard.

Glad you're happy with your purchases.  Those are some of Buckethead's most popular songs.

| Were there any actual copies of "KFC Skinpiles" ever actually released/sold? I know its an EP, but still, I think it would be kind of cool to own it. |

It was sold but it went out of print quickly. I'm thinking it's out of print because not many people own a record player or because it's really weird. It was made for DJ's to scratch and it has movie samples on it. Sometimes it's sold on ebay for $200.

Actually, I've heard 5 now (Electric Tears). Those 5 songs themselves are all pretty different from each other. That's how I felt it safe to say that his musical style varies. He can go all out on songs like Final Wars or be soft and calm on songs like Sooth and ET (lolacronym). |

If you liked Electirc Tears or if you're going to listen to a song off of Electric Tears album, and of that style, you NEED to hear Padmasana. It's a beautiful song, and I actually think it's in some reputable guitar magazines top 100 riffs of all time. I love when you hit the bridge about 6 minutes in. That song is the most moving of it's kind by Buckethead. |

| He should wait for a while to reveal. But not too long. If he reveals when he's like 60 it'll be weird. |

I took your advice and listened to this one, plus four other songs off of The Cuckoo Clocks of Hell, and  . That album is pretty fucking awesome.
And the video for The Spokes for the Wheel of Torment...ah...well...ooh...
Sorry for posting in here so much.

It is an awesome album! My favorites on it are Spokes for the Wheel of Torment and Arc of the Pendulum.
We enjoy you posting in here so much.

Ugh.
Buckethead must be one of the most overrated guitarists out there, maybe only second to satch.
I could go on forever with a list of shredders who's compositional skills outweigh bucketheads by far. I bet 80% of bucketheads fanbase hasn't even heard of Shawn Lane.
If there's one thing I can commend him for though, it's the sheer quantity of his stuff. Dunno how he writes so quickly, but in all honesty I couldn't care less.

What's a Shawn Lane? I think I know somebody who lives down there!
Anyway, Buckethead overrated? I don't think so. He is respected very highly, and rightly so. His music is just so... moving, and furthermore, he writes so many different kinds of songs to the point where he's a great artist no matter how you look at it.
My thoughts on Buckethead: He's an artist that you always come back too. I myself prefer pre-2000s (with very few exceptions) music but Buckethead is so timeless I feel anyone can listen to him and enjoy it. |
