(buckethead project...note the >anagraming of his name). _Day of the Robot_ is one track that is very Praxis-like, intense jackhammer guitar into ambient cycles. Then four tracks with insane jungle rhythm tracks, some with a lot of guitar, and some without much guitar. If you like jungle, this is great, but if you don't, you may not find this to your liking. The Death Cube K CD is ambient, mostly dark ambient, with one truly standout track (the third.) In my opinion, the best thing to get after _Day_ and the unavailable _Giant Robot_ (the one on Sony Japan, not the more recent recording only available on cassette), assuming that you have all the Praxis CDs, is _Octave of the Holy Innocents_ with Jonas Hellborg and Michael Shrieve. Bucket plays acoustic guitar only on this, and it is incredible.

I had read a number of great reviews for that CD, but somehow was never able to hear what was so amazing about it. Soon after I got hooked in to the Praxis vibe, which was pretty cool throughout "Mutatis Mutandis" and "Sacrifist," but again left me cold once "Metatron" rolled around. "Giant Robot" (which is still available here in Chicago, at least) sounded to me like little more than "Bucketheadland Version 1.5," and the Death Cube K project did nothing for me, either. "Day Of The Robot" is at least fairly listenable, although for jungle I'll stick with masters like Astral Pilot. So why, you may ask, after consistently being let down by his CD's do I continue to listen to what the Buckethead is up to? Easy... because on "Octave of the Holy Innocents" and the three volumes of Company recordings from 1991, it is obvious that Buckethead harbours some serious talent, although not all of his recordings showcase this as well as others. I'd be interested in hearing his work with the Deli Creeps, and I'd love to hear him teamed up with Zorn again, as their 11 minute duet on the first volume of the Company recordings is absolutely mind blowing. As for the person who inquired about the current status of Painkiller, I believe that they are still an existing unit, as I just read something about them in Alternative Press (something about contributing to a soundtrack for a CD Rom), although I could be wrong. ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 12 May 1996 00:40:17 -0400 (EDT) From: Jeff Schwartz To: SadMcBain@aol.com Cc: zorn-list@xmission.com Subject: Re: Who is Buckethead?

There is no reason not to suspect that "Brian Carroll" is another alias and that the credit on the Kaiser album is a hoax by HK and The Artist Currently Known as Buckethead. 2. If he doesn't want us to know, then it's none of our business. For all the pleasure his music has given us, we at least owe him this bit o' respect. 3. If his playing can "make vehicles fly about like toys," I don't want to imagine what it could do to some snotty fan who revealed his secret identity. 4.

A few opi nions really surprised me. 1) many people treated KC & Fripp solo records as typical 'progressive rock' recordings. in the late 60's & early 70's bands were called 'progressive' when they were playing music beyond precise styles. Kc would very nicely suit this d efinition. But, somewhere around '74 it became a name for just another musical style: a lot of keyboards, technical perfectionsm, long tunes, etc. The term ha s lost its initial meaning. Nowdays, bands like marillion are called prog rock bands, and i do not think that any marillion fan would say that, for example, h enry cow plays ' progressive rock'. Crimson was one of the first bands which pl ayed this kind of music. they have, however, disapeared in 1974. They did not continue playing what they used to, after recording a few really GREAT albums ( starless&bible black, which is a live album- although not 'officially-, for exa mple. those who like this kind of improvised rock should check out the 'great d eceiver' 4 cd set). And Fripp has moved into entirely different stuff - he was one of the pioneers of ambient (his albums with Eno, solo albums like 'god save the queen', etc.). And he continued playing progressive music- not 'progressiv e rock'. Check out Fripp&League of gentleman album.Check out 'exposure'. Play t hem to a marillion fan. And keep safe distance ... Fripp is a 'progressive' musician in the same way Zorn, Frisell, etc. are. Thos e are people who try to go beyond styles, trying to make something new. There is a big difference, though. IMHO, Zorn is mixing styles in a very 'avant -guarde' way. Fripp (IMHO, of course) has another approach. He tries to put his mad polyrythmic ideas into 'pop' music('darshan', a 17-minute 'techno' track sh ould be a good example). He tries to see where can you go with the stuff which is popular- and new. He always plays 'top 10' kind of music- but in such a way that he never gets there ... So there are differencies. But THIS IS THE REASON i would like to see them play together. I'd like to see Fripp playing some solos on 'execution ground'. Add some guitar synth riffs... And Zorn introducing his mad arrangements into such mad compositions as 'neurotica', 'Frame by frame'... Btw, a Fripp-Frisell collaboration would be possible in quite a different way. Their approach to guitar playing is, IMHO again, very similar. Their duets woul d be ... no,i can't imagine that. Too beautiful. What occured to me as a graet idea right now, is maybe even better then collabo rations: mutual (downtown-crimson) tribute albums. And live shows together...wo w. 2) If i understood well, many people treated Zorn as an 'improvising' artist, and fripp as an 'composer'. This is not true- for example ' filmworks' or some naked city tunes (for example some of the 'radio' album) are not improvised. and Crimson's new album tHRAKk aTTACk, which will be out on 25 may , will be, a s far as i know, nearly entirely improvised. I'm afraid nobody reads such long letters...

Message-ID: <960512125631_292459553@emout18.mail.aol.com> It's no big secret that Brian Carroll is Buckethead. When his column first started in Guitar Player, they played up the hype about him being mute and raised in a chicken coop, etc. But two or three years ago there was an article in guitar player where his identity was revealed, and there was some insight into the real person. I dont have the article handy to give you the exact date. Henceforth in the article he was referred to as Brian. Does anybody know where to get the "Company" recordings? Yes, "Ocatave of the Holy Innocents" is incredible, as are all of Jonas Hellborg's recordings. If you are into Buckethead's fiery playing, then you should definitely check out Jonas' recent collaborations with Shawn Lane, who is a guitarist with a much broader palette of skills. Check out Jonas' "Abstract Logic" and "Temporal Analogues of Paradise" and Michael Shrieve's "Two Doors" (also featuring Bill Frisell and Wayne Horvitz).

All the songs (from a musical point of view) look the same: 1/ beginning: strong and catchy with Buckethead relying heavily on speed metal riffs; on the first song, you immediately feel that the concert will be killer 2/ middle: strickly nothing most of the time or, once in a while, 3mn of guitar exhibition; on the first song, you immediately feel that it is a trick and he is just teasing the audience; on the first show, you just think that Buckethead was not in great form and decided to "economize" his great skills 3/ end: Buckethead is back with the same set of riffs and that's all After three songs, you start to get really frustrated. If, like me, you don't aspire to be an arena rock guitar player, the interest is fairly minor. Musically the content is close to zero. As a performance, I can just say that it is not my cup of tea :-). > teamed up with Zorn again, as their 11 minute duet on the first volume of the > Company recordings is absolutely mind blowing.

My own take on _Bucketheadland_ is that when he gets in the studio without strong direction he doesn't do all that well. _Bucketheadland_ is really just Buckethead and Bootsy fooling around in Bootsy's basement studio. The Giant Robot recording that is not the Sony Japan release produced by Laswell is similarly lacking in focus, although it is better than _Bucketheadland_ in that department. Hopefully it will sound better on CD than on cassette because the sound on the cassette is awful.

It was recorded in hotel rooms across this fine planet of ours, which gives the album a nice narrative context. I would place it somewhere between Phil Minton and Masonna. It is a joy to own. and also he is a babe (that is, without a panty on his head) and also he was on Bob Ostertag's Fear No Love. It's the only album of Ostertag's that I do not own. Very disappointing. It's a dance album, very queer positive, with an all star cast, but the beats are tired. Sorry Bob. Peace out.
