Customer Reviews of This Album/CD |

Not good at all Submitted on: 2009-10-18 |
|
| Not his best work. It is very erratic with seemingly no clear direction. This is not anything like his better stuff, Nottingham Lace, Soothsayer, Pepper's Ghost, Jordan, Bucketheadland, etc. I couldn't listen to this more than 4-5 times before giving up on it. |

Like most of his releases, Buckethead has blown me away with his ability to transform any kind of music into a soundscape. This is not your typical metal, this stuff conjures up some wicked images. It's almost like listening to a very vivid dream.
This album is unlike anything else. A GREAT listening experience, see for yourself....and buy this now |

Bucket goes HEAVY Submitted on: 2008-09-30 |
|
| Truth be told, I bought The Cuckoo Clocks of Hell and Slipknot's All Hope is Gone on the same day and they arrived in the same package. I have 2 DVD Burning Drives on my Mac Pro, so I injected both discs simultaneously. I then walked away from my computer to let them both rip. When one of the discs started, I said to myself, "God damn, Slipknot went heavy on their intro track." I walked over to my computer: "Whoops, wrong band." I was listening to The Cuckoo Clocks. This album has all of the detailed shredding Bucket is known for, but this one takes it to the dark and heavy side. |

He's Totally Crazy...And We're So Lucky Submitted on: 2007-11-01 |

| No doubt about it, B-Head is always going to do whatever his inner desire drives him to do, and we must bask in its glory. As with most fans, I appreciate all he does, but like different works in varying degrees. This means people who tend to like his acoustic-based material will probably think this disc is only good for playing when you want guests who've over-stayed their welcome to leave. I was intrigued by a review that suggested "death metal guitar" sounds, and to be sure the sound is REALLY HEAVY. But there's the added dimension of Bucky's energetic and frenetic musicianship that owns this disc. One reviewer complained "there's no guitar solos"...man, the whole damn thing is a guitar solo, only not in the traditional sense. The riffs morph into crazy sounding flurries of notes that hit you right over the head. No subtlety here, and combined with Brain's creatively mathematical drumming, it is truly not for the faint of ear. But, if the energy of such an excursion appeals to you, this might be your thing. There are a few mid-tempo pieces interspersed to help you catch your breath and led your ear drums recover. "The Black Forest" is an example of a track that is do downright quirky, I think it would make any Buckethead fan smile. If you are a fan of heavy guitar playing, you need this. If you really only like his acoustic offerings, be afraid, be very afraid... |
