Buckethead's early output possesses a visceral quality which makes it, to me, utterly engrossing. Bucketheadland is a smorgasboard of genres, effects, and moods, and it exhibits creativity, imagination, and an exploratory drive. Every time I listen to this album, I find myself enamored by the fiendishly original music, and Buckethead's sheer bravery in releasing such an off-the-wall work. I'm not convinced this needed a 2nd disc of dance remixes, and the production quality is somewhat poor, but those issues aside, Bucketheadland is a one-of-a-kind listen.
