Best news I've read all day

He's still doing Pikes? Jeez...

He's released an album literally every day this month so...

Dafuq's the matter with this guy anywayz?

haha . i love some buckethead, but he needs to cut out 75% of the pikes which are filler. and who the hell pays 9 bucks for this shit.

Damn, I was gonna make this

theres always tomorrow and come on guys its only $9, cavernous part 1 is AMAZING

Can I be promoted to staff/mod/contributor if I review every Buckethead album?

Buckethead has released 99 albums this year. No surprise.

a new buckethead album? no way

LOL ANOTHER BUCKETHEAD LOL HOW UNPREDICTABLE

Quantity over quality

Chicken over Quantity

Imagine if he'd put his savantism toward something like science or mathematics. We'd have thirty different cures for cancer and AIDS by now and he'd have hand-discovered at least fifty potential alien civilizations in the galaxy.

Except judging from the average quality of his work most of those cures would be duds anyway and the civilizations he discovered would have been destroyed thousands of years ago

might be AOTY for me

yeah but the metric buttload of effort he'd have done would've sent shockwaves through the scientific communities and probably allowed the more competent scientists to actually make a lot more progress. I mean if Buckethead does a thousand things and they all fail then that means that no other scientist will accidentally make those mistakes, so the world will benefit. :D

Can I be promoted to staff/mod/contributor if I review every Buckethead album?

I wouldn't be surprised if this actually happens

no shit

if he invents a thing using a certain idea and it fails then he'd have at least established a new way of doing something, which would allow other people to work to actually perfect that idea past its buckethead-halfass stage into something useful. Like when NASA puts out a metric buttload of data on star light measurements then gives the data to actual humans to sift through and find interesting things (like planets). Buckethead is the super computer that just spits out data, other humans would sift through his accomplishments to find the meaningful bits.

What I'm saying is that Buckethead should become a cosmologist or a biomechanic because reason and hilarity.

I wonder if Buckethead will keep doing this for like 3 years just for the money and then release the best album in history of music.
Prob not.

There should be a news article every time he drops an album, it's the same for most artists on this site so I don't think it's fair that most of his albums get proper coverage here

I'm sure if he did a compilation of his absolute best songs, it'd be a 4.5/5 on the site

kind of hard to sift through 600 hours of material though. I don't envy the dude with that job.

And how long would the comp be? Three hours if we're being picky?

you could always just use this instead when it comes to his pikes

http://decino.nl/?p=pikesuggester

a new album? no way, its been a while

are any of his albums actually good?

Ok guys, I've got some bad news for you but maybe you should be told: Santa Claus doesn't exist and Bucket Head is several guys who had a good idea on how to get some attention.
Ah, and also, Caroline Quine, author of the giant serie of children's books "Nancy Drew" is actually something like ten persons. Welcome to the world of artistic deception.

He releases two fuckin' albums a week.

buckethead has overstayed his welcome now

Fuckethead

"I'm sure if he did a compilation of his absolute best songs, it'd be a 4.5/5 on the site" [2]

As much as I love this guy, can he just take some time off? These albums somehow keep getting less special.

I'm still waiting for something just as good as Monument Valley. Some got close.

Not to mention he should stop releasing an album every day.

Pikes 1-100 had some pretty damn good stuff in it... But 101-200 have been really embrassing.

guys be nice this is how he mourns

I looked at this guy's discography and I just about threw up

I love me some Buckethead but there's absolutely no way to keep up. But some of the pikes have been incredible. I also want to note that in my opinion it's a healing process for him. He's lost his mom and dad in the last year and they'd both been sick for a while. I feel like this is sort of his grieving process. That said there's been some incredible moments during the Pike series but it's just too much to take in for anyone.

Obviously all speculation, but we all handle grief in a different way. Music is his outlet and he's immersed himself in it totally (and then some).

For sure, these are more for him than us. It's not like we're obligated to listen to them.

Damn, I really suck at trolling.

yep, embarrassingly so

Damn, I wish there had been an article every day for his countdown to Halloween.

@Mort.
I wouldn't be embarrassed for that kind of things.

awesome news he's a fucking king

wow I thought people were exaggerating about how much shit he's released but wow what in the fuck

Yeah, he really cranked it up over the past 2 years, and his discography was already ridiculous before that.

I thought he was crazy releasing 4-5 albums a year like 7 years ago. Now he's on course to release over 100 this year alone.

smfh

that's just retarded, there's no other way to put it.

what is with this guy? rn he's releasing like 2 albums a week

he's shat all over his own musical credibility. if he ever had any which idk about.

Best news I've read all day +1

It's ridiculous, I agree. There are definitely some gems in there though.

"Can I be promoted to staff/mod/contributor if I review every Buckethead album?"

Dude I feel like he'd be releasing shit faster than you'll be reviewing it at the rate he's going.

this guy is all the proof we need that aliens do exist

SURPRISE SURPISE
THEGOVAMENTLIES

he's already put out 2 more albums since this article was approved

hahahahaha

I'm so worried about him tbh like you can't possibly put out an album every day and have a healthy, fulfilled life

he doesn't have actually

he should take a break and then record 365 albums in 2016

"he's already put out 2 more albums since this article was approved"

lol

im like 110% sure that pretty much ever album he's released as of late is just composed of old outtakes from over the years lol

I may check em out. I've gotten the feeling from users who have heard his stuff that that's pretty much the case w/ his discog. I'm sure some of it is good and he's a talented guy and all that but nothing says "stay the fuck away from this guy" to someone who hasn't heard your music like releasing an album every day.

lol yeah that's kind of how I've been looking at it. but I may check your recs someday. still have a shitload of death/black/heavy metal to rail thru.

the struggle
