THE REVIEW

Looking through some De-Reviews, more specifically those concerning the Shredders (not the ones from the Ninja Turtles) that is, those modern virtuoso guitarists like Satriani, Steve Vai, Malmsteen, Jason Becker, Friedman, etc... I noticed something... Or rather I didn't notice something... Where is Buckethead????? ''Bucket who????'' some of you may say... Who else?? The one with the fried chicken box from the famous American chain KFC on his head... (hence the name BucketHead which means Buckethead)...

This somewhat bizarre guitarist (and what do you expect from someone with a chicken bucket on his head???) is (unfortunately) more famous for his brief and useless stint in the 2000 Guns N' Roses (as we know, the current band of Axl Rose, not even remotely related to the old Guns, never released anything) than for his vast discography... Dear Buckethead has a real obsession with DisneyLand, theme parks, robots, electronics and all these things plus a thousand other oddities that are reflected in his strange music... The CD Bucketheadland or Buckethead Land offers a journey into the fascinating world of the bizarre guitarist, full of Robots, monsters, and with Alice (the one in Wonderland), Willy Wonka and other strange characters.

Really interesting just to get an idea of what this bizarre being capable of is, who goes by the name of Buckethead...
