I do not understand the appeal of Buckethead, is it just the gimmick? He has technique but plays the same 3 licks all the time and he's sloppy as fuck. He can't write, I listened to 10 records and there wasn't the hint of a decent riff or idea to be found. He does shows where he jams to terrible backing tracks, but can't improvise to save his life. He's even worse at playing slow than all this other shit. Why do people like this guy?
There are only a few songs i like. This is one. I mean, he has 31 studio albums and 662 mini-albums. I don't even think I have the time for checking it all out.
Perfect example of what I'm talking about. It's already unacceptable to have 3 chords with zero change and call that a "song". It's Bmin-D-G, relative chords so you can play only Bmin the entire time. Which of course he does, with zero deviation except for when he fucks up because he's incapable of playing outside. He tries to play slow, sounding like someone who's never played guitar before, finally gets to the fast shit and surprise-alt picking B minor straight up and down. And even fucks that up which is kinda surprising even for him. If y'all want shreddy guitar over bad music, this isn't even the amateur league. There's also shreddy guitar over actual real music, I'd encourage checking that out.
