Free Music Review: Buckethead's most focused album: BEWARE COWARDS!
Hit: 5 Stars
This is definitely Buckethead's most listenable album, with it's catchy riffs, hip-hop beats and great vocal performances.
I don't own all of Bucket's albums (there's just too many!), but of the 4 I still own (Bucketheadland-Import, Giant Robot and Colma) this is my go-to every time. It has fun lyrics from Bootsy, Onions and Les and instantly memorable guitar riffs in Buckethead's signature style.
"Robots and Monsters" is such a cohesive effort in terms of the production values, even though each song is unique you never feel worried that the next song is going to suddenly trade rocking guitar solos for a monotone little kid reading a weird poem over strings ('COUGH'Giant Robot!'COUGH') or just repeat chainsaw-guitar samples over and over again like on "Somewhere Over the Slaughterhouse" which I ditched immediately.
The standout tracks are:
-"Revenge of the Double Man" with it's unforgettable main riff and Flinstone-running-feet-style drums from Brain, BEWARE COWARD!
-"Night of the Slunk" which is classic Buckethead funk-rock.
-"The Shape vs. Buckethead" a great mix of hilarious Bootsy vocals and hard core rap lyrics telling the story Bucket defeating Michael Myers.
-"Nun Chuka Kata" is Buckethead doing his classic video game type sound, akin to the song he did on the Mortal Kombat soundtrack.
I think everyone likes Buckethead for different reasons, but for me it's this album and its straight ahead funk-techno-rock.
Like Bootsy says, "If you can't take the heat, you better get out the kitchen, Bopper...yeah."
