Buckethead, Monti and Albert could have just gone into the mix room for half an afternoon, tossed together two or three fragments of established songs because the segues work and tadaa, a new album (the cheap way out). anyway, the concept leaves the door wide open for the quality of the execution. Maybe it's just me being limited, but it's the first time that I hear of an idea like this, and I don't know what to make of it. a concept that can be interpreted as innovative or lazy. All of the album tracks are made of chopped up tidbits from previously recorded songs. there is not a single note of original material on here.
since this record is simultaneously provokingly original and jarringly cash-grabbing. Would Forensic Follies turn out to be another worthy offering, or just a random mess to take on the road?īoth of these options are in some way correct. a huge chunk of the 2007 output came in the form of a monstrous 13 disc set which sounded like a compilation of random scraps sitting around the studio archives, and Buckethead seemed to take a bit more time to create each of his solo releases. Even before I read the first opinions on the album, I was a little tentative towards another Buckethead record coming so soon after the previous outing (the gap between Forensic Follies and A Real Diamond In The Rough was only about a month). Happy folks were greeted at the merchandise table by a bizarre cover of a brand new record, Forensic Follies. Needless to say, Big B didn't disappoint this time around either. As Buckethead's late May tour dates approached, everybody waited for another new CD, since Big B almost always takes a fresh disc with him on the road to be sold at shows.

All unnecessary lame jokes about Buckethead's inhuman efficiency aside, his thus far 2009 output was pretty good – Slaughterhouse On The Prairie marked a solid return to the more disturbing and dissonant side of things, whilst the follow-up coming three months later, A Real Diamond In The Rough, was a good installment in the all-mellow album series (coming a full seven years after the previous offering, Electric Tears). 2007 was the golden year though, and his fan base isn't nearly as spoiled nowadays, since Forensic Follies is merely the third album out this year. Review Summary: DIY – make an ambivalence-inducing Frankenstein of a guitar album without even picking up your guitarīuckethead is definitely one of the most prolific artists around – 2007 saw the release of 27 (yes, 27, I did not mistype) discs featuring a various level of the masked guitarist's involvement.
