Buckethead's latest is another surprise twist. This time he points his guitar downward, plunging aurally into territories previously explored only by Dante and Hieronymous Bosch. "The Cuckoo Clocks Of Hell" is a grinding, twirling sonic assault that swin

Cuckoo Clocks of Hell is a full return to Buckethead's blistering, super-heavy guitar heroics after releases that focused on different parts of his multiple musical personalities. That may please the heavy shredder fans, but the relentless pummeling beats can get a bit tiresome. There's no doubting Buckethead's virtuosity, but this album starts to sound like a series of exercises after a while. It's only about two-thirds of the way in, when he slows things down a bit and opens up the form on songs like "Woods of Suicide," "Yellowed Hide," and "The Black Forest," that one starts to hear the scope of Buckethead's abilities. Fans of his heaviest guitar work will enjoy Cuckoo Clocks of Hell, but there are much more interesting albums in Buckethead's discography. ~ Sean Westergaard

Cuckoo Clocks Of Hell Music Review Average Rating: (4.3 out of 5 stars)   List All Reviews SICK SICK SICK
This album is sick!! Buckethead and Brain are just bashing away! Just for the heavyness of this album it's worth it. So why just 3 stars? Because like most of what I've heard from Buckethead, I don't think it's a finished product. If he could add instrumentation and real composition to his game, he would be one of the greatest. But most of what I've heard from him has amazing new sounds and ideas but that's what they are: collections of sounds and ideas instead of real polished finished jems.

Hey, I am a Huge buckethead fan. overwhelmed by his 25 studio albums and countless other projects?? well, if you like intrumental metal, then you'll like Peppers Ghost, and Albino slug. two MUST HAVES.

For a guy who takes his sartorial cues from teenage horror flicks (he plays onstage with a weird sort of hockey mask on his face), Buckethead sure does make pretty music. It was not always thus -- his work with Praxis, for example, has often been pretty challenging. But on this solo project, on which he plays both guitar and bass and is helped out on all tracks by drummer Brain, the material is surprisingly pleasant, bordering at times on the banal. Titles like "Hills of Eternity" and ...

Superfreak guitarist Buckethead is known at least as much for his bizarre sartorial choices (his stage name comes from his penchant for wearing both a mask and a Kentucky Fried Chicken bucket on his head whenever appearing in public) as for his guitar playing, although taken as a whole, his music is actually quite a bit stranger and more original than his image. The bucket remains ...
