Yep, before you know it we're all going to have to wear buckets on our heads...

Really? Does someone listen to every album of every artist on here for inclusion? That will probably never happen since many of his albums are out of print and expensive. Much of his stuff is on youtube. Although i m a fan i find a lot of his later stuff samey and think listening to his entire output would drive me insane! All they need is tbe proggier ones |

I went on a Buckethead binge and got a few more albums than I really need in my collection. Not so fond of the metal heavy stuff - Funnel Weaver, Cuckoo Clocks of Hell, maybe Bucketheadland 2. He's put out a few really good eclectic albums and those are my favorites - Giant Robot, Monsters and Robots, Bermuda Triangle, population override. I also like his mellower stuff like Colma and Electric Tears.
I have advocated for his inclusion in the past and I still stand by that. |

Grand Gallery is a minimalist piece
Citacis And Outlined For Citacis are very experminental albums Footsteps is a mellow long suite I said it, he got it all. He can be in RIO/Avant Prog Experimental (like the Residents), very eclectic (like Frank Zappa), you really should add him IMHO.

The only way we could ever get him on the site is if someone trustworthy and unbiased listens to every single one of his albums, and can give us a little feedback on each one. The ones that are considered more proggy should be listened to a little bit by the members of whatever team is decided...
And then someone would need to make all his albums. We are talking like 90 or something ridiculous like that. This is a project that could take multiple evenings... ESPECIALLY if that person decides to include all the track lengths.

As I see it, he either goes in Eclectic (if the team accept him - they started an evaluation about 5 years ago, but I've no idea how it ended up...or if it even has ended yet) or Prog Related (if an S.C. is prepared to go to the trouble of putting together a case for him, and the admins are receptive to it). It'll be a lot of work for someone to add all the albums though...

It's not if he should be added,but to what genre.The man has released like 30 albums so far this year,and a lot of them aren't metal.

Buckethead is already here in spots. Octave Of The Holy Innocents comes to mind first.

since someone else brought up the dreaded Buckethead topic again i just thought i'd add one variation
Mr B is both on the MMA as metal related and JMA as jazz related Jazz and metal together seems like prog to me That's it Bye! |

Were Kiss still Kiss after they stopped using lipsticks ? Were Floyd still Floyd after Waters departed ? The name which was can remain even after he'll do such atrocity. I hope he won't do it. |

There's a point where "avant-garde" and "experimental" becomes "terrible" and "pointless,"

It's how he gets his name, if he took it off he'd be 'head' which is weird.

I like the album "colma" by buckethead......just saying, I could handle buckethead being here, but if he is not here I can still listen to "colma" and never ever even wonder if somebody else thinks it is prog rock, peoples get so uptight if their bands do not get admitted to the site, buckethead is too busy to care probably, maybe he has to go down to kfc and score more buckets, do you think it is weird he wears a bucket on his head?

*Bump*
I just recently discovered Buckethead, not even through the archives, but he certainly sounds like prog to me. I respect the admins decision though.

Three pages and a lot of heated debate into this matter, I just wanna reiterate that Epignosis has brought the issue of Buckethead being added to the Eclectic Team, being himself a member, and we ask everyone to give us the time to evaluate the artist properly.

Tony, I received no request and i talked with you, I have always and withou exception accepted your requests (you know that) and absolutely always honored my word.
Plus my post was to avoid any further problem, what as a fact happened.
