Description
A brand new shrink-wrapped copy of this very rare, out-of-print double vinyl LP by guitar god Buckethead (the alter ego of Brian Patrick Carroll). It is in perfect condition, shrink-wrapped, and not a promo item (no cutouts or holes - perfect). CD versions of this same release recently have sold anywhere from $50 to $200 new on eBay or Amazon where one reviewer described this BUCKETHEAD album as such: "Whether he's doing metal, fusion, hip hop, mellow guitar balladry, or other crazy stuff, Buckethead -- with his mighty guitar -- is the master. With this release, Buckethead focuses on the techno side of things, laying down some phat beats over which Buckethead's creates weird sonic textures that makes for surprisingly engaging listening. Buckethead's insanely fast leads are less frequent here, although the listener is still treated to some hyper fretwork. One thing's for certain...make sure you have at least some appreciation for techno if you're going to buy this. Yeah, Buckethead's firing out some cool guitar playing for which we all love him, but this is different from, say, Monsters & Robots (which even tended to touch on techno at times). This is more bumpin' than rockin'. Personally, I think this album smokes. After a warped version of "Somewhere Over the Rainbow," the first real song "Help Me" sets the tone for the album with massive, groovin' beats and tasty guitar lines. "My Sheetz" is one of my favorite Buckethead songs now, with the man in the white mask sprinkling crystalline notes over some thumpin' rhythms. "Day of the Ulcer" is punctuated by an exciting techno-metal section in the middle of the song, while the rest is pretty spooky and atmospheric. Speaking of atmosphere, "You Like Headcheese?" is a moody piece as well. "Wires and Clips" is basically just weird sounds adhered to some quiet beats and samples, but it's good fun. Buckethead's going to conquer the world someday. Be careful." This is a brand new copy, shrink-wrapped, 2LP set.
