Some new songs from the album are online, its basically Forensic Follies. :/ Carcass Table was pretty sick, but the title track gave me a head ache. :p:

Let's just have our hopes up for an awesome album later on, maybe a Bucketheadland 3. :cheers:

[Novacane...]

Hey. I was wondering if anyone could send me a decent mp3 of Nottingham Lace, had a decent one a while ago, downloaded Enter the Chicken so deleted the old one. This one is a poorer quality. Sounds picky but it's a great song and it's still bugging me.

I assume someone here has it :D

[Nacho Cheese!]

A) go buy the album.

B) Re-download it, it is an easy find im sure. Especially if you are using torrents.

C) Get it from youtube. Use a site like ListenToYouTube.com or something to that effect.

Needle In A Slunk Stack is more random nonsense. :(

[MEGADETH_METAL]

Needle In A Slunk Stack is more random nonsense. :(

indeed it is..i love Buckethead but these last 2 albums (Forensic & Needle) have been just random stuff and i've been pretty dissapointed. After hearing Slaughterhouse On the Prairie i was wary coz it had some epic songs (Lebron,Lebrons Hammer, Iceman, Premonition) but some other kinda iffy random ones and then" A Real Diamond...." came along and i was happy and then he made went off on one and made these last 2.
i think he needs to go back to Peppers Ghost-Decoding the Tomb era because those songs wernt just about solos...they had them but it focused on funky complex riffs aswell.
if only he could mix Electric Bell Blanket with Final Wars, then i'd be happy and i could forget about these past 2 albums

[Minkaro]

I'm actually looking forward to this new Buckethead & Friends album that's meant to be in the works.

Unless Serj was lying through his funny beard.

[Baby Joel]

I HATE WMG

They took down the Buckethed-ODB 'I Like It Raw' video for copyright. :/

Signature guitar. :O Interesting to see how it turns out.. I'm not too psyched though.

"As part of Gibson’s Rocktober celebrations, Gibson will also launch and promote Signature Series guitars from stars including Tony Iommi (Black Sabbath), Dethklok, Buckethead, Epiphone Triumph Bass & more. "

[EEE_ELLL_OHH]

So the DCK album Torn Form Black Space is finally about to drop. I've never bothered with this side of BH but may consider this album...

[Baby Joel]

I love DCK so much. Hyped for this new album. :)

[lobster624]

i just put in pepper's ghost today for the first time in a while and i forgot how awesome it is! i have heard my fair share of buckethead, but i was wondering what other albums, if any, are like pepper's ghost?

[Baby Joel]

Decoding the Tomb of the Bansheebot is pretty similar. Maybe Albino Slug and Crime Slunk Scene, but not too much for those.

[Novacane...]

Love Mad Monster Party, just mental. So Buckethead.

[lobster624]

i've heard bansheebot and i'm not that big a fan of it. its dece. crime slunk scene is awesome and i'll have to check out albino slug. thanks man.

[TheLifeguard]

Could anyone recommend me some other players with a style similar to Buckethead's playing on his more mellow, melodic albums? (Electric Tears, Population Override, Colma, A Real Diamond in the Rough)

I'm looking for some slower paced stuff to listen to while I go to sleep, I get insomnia pretty bad and it helps. Any artists or albums would be great!

[Plexi81]

Ahoy, does any body have any suggestions as to songs which show off a lot of buckethead's real melodic and innovative side? Rather then the chromatics and technical glitz?

[Penn100]

Aunt Suzie^

And all the albums mentioned in the post above you.

Try some Andy Mckee I find Art & Motion to be rather relaxing. I also like Brett Garsed's Big Sky although that one isn't as soft it is still a good listen regardless. Now if you want another mellow album I would have to suggest Dark Side of the Moon by Pink Floyd. I'm sure you already know the album and all but it is very mellow imo. If I think of anything else I'll post it here for ya bro :cheers:

[Siggelump]

Andy McKee is a good choice, Art of Motion is fantastic.

Other than that, try some Shawn Lane. At least for me both the Powers of Ten album and Tri-Tone Fascination can get me to another dimension. :)

[Eater of ashes]

Could someone suggest for me a Buckethead album that lacks schtick?

[SOADrox429]

Colma, Electric Tears, Enter the Chicken, Crime Slunk Scene, and a lot of others. I'm sure someone else can give you a better list.

There we have it.

[lobster624]

that is awesomelishus

[Penn100]

Actually looks pretty good.
I was sort of "meh" when I heard that they were making a signature model and massproducing one of the most underground geniouses there are, who has always been very anti-pop.

But it looks awesome, too bad they switched his DiMarzios for Gibson pups, tho.

[anderseb]

Jordan is awesome. Give mass credit to Buckethead. That's all :dance:

There we have it.

If I only I had the money to afford that. It looks purely awesome! Shame about the pickups though =(

But a 24-fret Gibson is something I have always wanted to see =D

[Raijouta]

Giant Robot
Crime Slunk Scene
A Real Diamond in the Rough
Decoding the Tomb of Bansheebot
Inbred Mountain (some songs)

27" scale?! Yes please!

Jordan is awesome.

Jordan is overrated and a bit crap compared to a whooooole lot of his other stuff :p:

[Baby Joel]

^Definitely true. On both parts.
I much prefer Jump Man or Night of the Slunk instead of Jordan. But Jordan is fine.

I've noticed recently that Buckethead isn't nearly as clean as he used to be. Whenever he does Binge and Grab solo live now, he always messes up at least once (Don't blame him really, it's pretty fast). But he used to nail it incredibly clean when he was younger.
However, his musical composition ability has expanded quite a lot.

EDIT: Also realised: I need quite a bit of money. I want to get Acoustic Shards, the whole DCK discography, Octave of the Holy Innocents, as well as Bermuda Triangle, Giant Robot, Giant Robot (NTT), and Bucketheadland 2.
:(

Old school Buckethead ftw :headbang:

How much I would pay to go to one of his concerts and get a pick off of him, if he ever throws them out. Anyone ever got one?? I think that would kill me if I got one, death through over excitement =D


/day dream

[Baby Joel]

I don't think he ever throws them out. The only stuff he hands out are weird little toys and whatnot. :)
I can't for whenever he comes to the UK.

[sgc09]

I wanna try to get a replica or make one of his guitar when it was all white everything with fret markerless fretboard, and the kill switch, but i don't know what paint to use

[Raijouta]

Use either nitrocellulose or enamel.
