Putting a genre on Buckethead is impossible, he doesn't play one thing, even in his songs you cant nail just one genre to any song. He plays MUSIC and all of music...if anything, he made a genre on his own "Pure Awesomeness."
What I like about buckethead is he has such a strange type of music apart form most solo guitarists take Escape from Inbred mountain then Soothsayer two totally different genres both by Bucket he can be so diverse and still be good and hos music is out there.
lol, buckethead plays everything, literally, from Shred Metal, to Creepy Stuff, to Beautiful Acoustics, To fun catchy songs, to sad songs, its amazing. I don't know anyone else who can do those things

@Eradicateify industrial metal, industrial, dark wave, new age, vintage rock, acid jazz, acid blues, punk, R&B, noise, electro wave, avant-garde, experimental, alternative, progressive, indie, neo-classical, doom metal, black metal, gothic rock, punk rock, swing, folk, freak folk, tribal, ambient, power metal, j-rock, funk.. there are many variations and combinations but that pretty much covers it.
iwhen i hear BH-songs i think they have 2 parts.....the"evil" one and the "good" one...those together = the Awesome one Buckethead rocks the world....and the bucketheadland :D \m/
He has plenty more than that. He can do blues like Population Override (search for Too Many Humans) and hardcore metal like Bucketheadland 2 and Inbred Mountain and Island of Lost Minds. He can also do melodic metal like King James and Stretching Lighthouse, pretty much all of Pepper's Ghost and DTTOB. He can even do funk, like Fizzy Lipton Drink from EMAC.
@uofm97 I can not find any one near anything that buckethead has done but i still don't think that his music is his own genre because it is too diverse really. I also think Buckethead was making his music with out the thought of "I want to achieve this feeling/sound/technique...etc" I think that Buckethead was just playing music to match his feelings
there is a shit load of genres more then 12.. i can name them off my head, blues, fusion, rock, heavy metal, hard rock, jazz, orchestral,nu metal, acid rock, dnb, techno, death metal.
okay, I don't understand why people are talking about rap here, (HELLO), this is Buckethead's page! Anyways, I would like to state that even though I hate mostly ALL rap, there are a few exceptional rap artist that are far more intellectual than your average person. I can understand why a lot of people hate it. Folks, the radio plays some mindless stuff- but hell, every music genre has its shitty artists, did somebody say Jonas Brothers??
So basically Metal. And then it becomes jazz and blues and funk and new age and ambient and folk and even bluegrass with the other albums. Take your pick.
RAP!? ORIGINAL? CREATIVE!? WTF!?!?!?!? every rap song sounds just like all rap songs!! -.- the melody probebly isn´t even created by the raper himself... -.- Buckethead is the most creative,original and best guitarist I´ve ever herd
yea i was once a huge rap head,but i dont like it so much any more,i got playin GH and made me listen to new music,so i switched to metal and classic rock,but your right freestylin is hard at first but you get the hang of it,and undergrong rap is amazing
Yeah the rappers they put on tv and the radio now are mostly trash but its a few dozen rappers they are very talented and respect the art of rhyming that you wont hear if you just rely on the tv and radio
exactly im tired of ppl giving me shit about how i dont like lil wayne RAP ARTISTS ARNT TALENTED IN ANY WAY!!!! the only good ones are old school ones that basically invented it
This man is very creative and dynamic in his music--something most people don't have in today's music.

I would love for a collaboration with Buck and Ron Bumblefoot Thaal. That would be dope.
Buckethead is officcially one of my favorite guitar playeers after jimi hendrix
which would make him the best artist alive in my opinion. art so versatile!
thx for putting this up
I believe buckethead is hundreds of years old....and has written music through the centuries
amazing
iwhen i hear BH-songs i think they have 2 parts.....the"evil" one and the "good" one...those together = the Awesome one
Buckethead rocks the world....and the bucketheadland :D
\m/
i like both styles of music, you just have to know the right shit to listen to.
hell yeah.
He has plenty more than that. He can do blues like Population Override (search for Too Many Humans) and hardcore metal like Bucketheadland 2 and Inbred Mountain and Island of Lost Minds. He can also do melodic metal like King James and Stretching Lighthouse, pretty much all of Pepper's Ghost and DTTOB. He can even do funk, like Fizzy Lipton Drink from EMAC.
I have a live version of this but it has a different title, not got my MP3 player at hand to check what it is though.

@maggotaacand when Buckethead goes to bed at night he checks.... oh, wait he doesn't go to bed
live is good but this one is even better.....

i disagree, buckethead plays every kind of different style but his sound is always futuristic.
@TheOriginaDoomtastic Enter the Chicken has songs with vocals in them, though.

Hi, I like to goto all Buckethead's videos and say the same thing.
Why's everyone arguing over genres. Fuck the theory, just listen to the music.

Letisha Tackett Absolutely brilliant.
