Buckethead is a solo experimental musician who, on
stage, wears a Michael Myers style mask and an empty Kentucky Fried
Chicken bucket on his head. You most likely saw him perform guitar on
stage with Guns ‘N’ Roses during the 2002 MTV Music
Awards. He’s now the full-time lead guitarist for Guns ‘N’ Roses.
On this "Bermuda Triangle" CD he
delivers nineteen diverse experimental instrumentals created with funky
electronic programming, haunting melodies, heavy beats, varied sampling
and guitars. While experimental instrumentals aren’t really my thing,
I must admit that Buckethead does indeed make interesting and entertaining
music. He’s a talented musician with quite an imagination. He really
mixes it up a lot on this CD delivering a creative musical journey for
the mind.
Some tracks are relaxing, mellow and laid back-while others are full
force maddening chaos. With nineteen tracks on this album you get a
lot of music. So it’s definitely a long sound adventure. If you enjoy
electronic experimental instrumental music with guitar, this Buckethead
CD is definitely something to get.
