imagine having to build a chicken coup in the studio to placate your lunatic lead guitarist, and have it add six months to your studio time. the fucker can really play though, and his hands are fucking massive.

rockstar???????? are you serious. If their is one guitarist, i mean if there's one guitarist who is in the top 10 best guitar players ever (no joke), buckethead is the ONLY one who keeps doing his stuff. He doesn't do it for the money.

can't believe nobody knows him btw. This dude is EPIC



he writes all his tracks by himself. He also designed with some guitar builder a button on his guitar, named a kill switch. He does epic sickening things with it. Also he's autistic. That's why he wears the bucket. i guess

Most people only know him for the Guns and Roses shit, which is a crying shame to be honest. He was even in Wavetwisters, the DJ Q-Bert movie.

the thing is. He probably IS the best guitar player in the world. But he will never be on the first spot because others are more 'known' and that's a big factor in the top guitar player list.

He also has quite a few side projects under different names with different styles, similar to aphex. I dunno if he's still doing those projects though. Stuff like Death Cube K:

Yeah pretty sure Laswell had a hand in it, probably the bass. I know they formed Praxis around the same time so it's more than likely.
