LA RECENSIONE

It wasn't even one of my best creative shots.

Thank you, buckethead. Thank you for letting me eat at KFC at least once (believe me, you won't miss McDonald's), thank you for introducing me to a valid alternative to metal shredders ebbasta. Thank you for giving us these unusual gems in the world of Guitar Hero.

But now it's time for pure adrenaline.

What our bucket-headed friend does best is create melody in soulless songs. Basically, what John Petrucci, Steve Vai, and other "big" names in the virtuoso scene don't know how to do. So it starts with a fast and powerful riff that doesn't give the listener a moment's rest. The first real solo follows, a true whirlwind of auditory power, before returning to the normal pattern of notes.

The song then degenerates and gets lost in the chaos of composition. Spacey solos, flavored with exquisite technique, make "Jordan" one of the best tracks of the virtuosic buckethead, yet it manages to save itself from boredom thanks to its incredible qualities: melody and substance finally rhyme with guitar hero. And by the way, if you had a PS2 and were a die-hard metalhead, Guitar Hero 2 featured this very song, obviously among the most difficult to play. Aren't you feeling nostalgic now? :-D
