Anyone that reacts to Buckethead gets an instant sub. In my little corner of this planet, he is far and away the greatest guitarist up to this point in history. The connection this man has with that guitar is ridiculous. Stories are told within his playing yet no words are ever uttered. This man is special.
Thanks so much for the sub! He’s definitely a special and unique artist, like I said in the video I don’t know that I’ve ever heard anything quite like that before!

Great video bro!! I know it's mostly about his music, but personally I love Bucket as a unique and incredible person. All talent, no ego. How can somebody not love him?? Bucket if you read this: I love you man, keep doing what you do!
"Then he took a pallid mask and he glued it to his face And it gave him the temerity to join the human race He stood like great Ulysses with guitar in his hand Pledging to deflate the cynical that plague the glory land"
The guy is a Legend and he's influenced my guitar playing since first discovering him off guitar hero lol. Then you go down the rabbit hole and realize he's been around forever laying down some of the best guitar playing while being relatively unknown.
Jordan, Pike 65 (Hold me forever), Aunt Suzie, Sail on Soothayer are some of my favourites but you really can't go wrong, everything he does is worth a listen. He must have almost 700 Pikes recorded by now and he playes everything from Bluegrass to Metal. He's name is Brian Carroll.
@@setonhillstudios The song Jordan was written for the Guitar Hero game so that's probably your best bet for RUclips views, he uses the killswitch a lot in the song, the timing is incredible.
He was on stage over two hours. He has a tech/roadie/handler with him. He shows up in a van/bus. Uses the venues sound. The staff is not allowed to speak to him or look him in the eyes. He has his own area where he hangs out alone before going on stage. On stage he does have audience participation on the guitar but he adds more protection to his head gear before those portions of the show. It is him and his guitar for enough time that is it. Buckethead has so many styles and "hundreds" of albums published to purchase from him. Chuck Berry used to set a gig, the venue would hire a band that could play Chucks music. He would walk in, turn up the amp, play the gig and leave. Taking his cash with him. Another thing that was interesting... There was zero merchandise at the show. No T-shirts or memorabilia... Cool show .. Amazing he was in Guns N Roses so long.
@@setonhillstudios the reason is cuz he wants to stay anonymous is my guess and hes probably one of the only people to actually still be anynomous anyone who tries usually gets exposed or revealed but buckethead has been anonymous for years its honestly insanely impressive always loved his music sience i was a kid bought all his pikes over 3k but worth it such an awesome musician! great video btw!
@@setonhillstudiosi photographed him at a live show in 2016. I was backstage waiting, when he pulled up in the van make and bucket were already on. He walked in they asked me to step back (fear of revealing identity I assume). PSticks his guy handed him his guitar and led him onstage with a flashlight. He shredded for over 2 hours walked off stage directly into the van.
A lot of people don't know that he also plays with several blackout masks on UNDER the white mask. Dude can't see shit when he is up on stage. He has to disconnect himself from the whole deal or he can't do it or something. I know he did play in several smaller bands before Deli Creeps live and didn't seem bothered. Also, I know a few people that know/knew him personally. He doesn't really stay in touch with people that often in his personal life though... Rumor is that when Slash was out of GNR, a comment was made that the band had already lost its best songwriter, (Izzy Stradlin), best drummer (Popcorn Adler) and would never find a lead guitar player better than Slash. Buckethead being hired to that band may have been a giant middle finger to some folks. Hire possibly the most technically gifted guitarist since Roy Clark to be in your band. I remember people thinking the KFC bucket was supposed to be making fun of Slash's top hat but the bucket came way before then
Brian Carrol is his real name. He graduated outta Musician's Institute GIT i grad outta there too. He's a bigfoot like legend there lol! Everyone that goes there goes in as solid guitarists and graduate as versatile musicians not guitarists but musicians. He had a stint with Guns N Roses and as a life long fan of GNR since '87 im not ashamed to say i really liked his live on stage work with them. I loved his duet with Robin covering Christina Aguilerra's Beautiful at the Rock In Rio 3 back in 2001. I love how at the ending of Paradise City all 3 guitarists swap leads back and forth of course Head is shredding his balls loose floppy and jangley just like the ending of November Rain lol! I highly suggest watching Rock In Rio 3 the whole concert is on here. I think u will really like it. Also contrast the songs pre Richard Fortus and with Richard Fortus especially Madagascar it'll amaze u.
Appreciate it! Dude has so many epic performances out there it seems! I can’t wait to check out more of his stuff! Such a killer player! Thanks for hanging out and more to come from him on the channel for sure! 🤘🏻
I was exactly the same. I'd heard his name on a few occasions but never checked him out, I'm not even sure why now, I suppose I'd maybe subconsciously assumed he was like a novelty act, not sure. But then this was the first video I landed on when I did finally look him up and without exaggeration, it changed everything!! No one has moved my emotions with their playing the way he does, some people dismiss him as "just a shredder" but that's so wide of the mark it's untrue! The more you listen to him, the more you hear tiny little subtleties in his playing and the level of control he has over everything under his fingers is just off the charts! It's a subjective thing, of course, but for me he's the best there's ever been!
The costume/comedy aspect is literally a way for him to detach himself personally from the performance. He's just a really quirky guy who became extremely good at playing guitar because he locked himself in a room as a young man and drilled everything Pebber Brown, Johnny Fortune, Paulo Gilberto and Shawn Lane had to teach him. There are musicians who play for money and fame and fortune and attention and we all chase it for one reason or another and then there are artists and musicians who work because they literally can't not put out their expression. It's like they feel they have to do it or they aren't living with a purpose. Buckethead is that kind of artist and musician I don't think he knows what to do with himself otherwise
if you search "Buckethead Scraps 96" it'll show the video of what I think might be Bucketheads single best live performance of any song. The quality on the video isn't great but his performance is insane
Hear of this guy some years ago, and yes the technique is off the charts, but NO ONE still to this day can compare to the late Shawn Lane!!! Not only could Lane shred on a guitar, but also on a Piano! Lane was the Ultimate musical genius/Shredder
The guitar he plays is actually a baritone Gibson Les Paul strung with 10's and tuned to E standard. This gives it a piercing quality with his custom ceramic pickups. He's so big, a baritone scale length guitar looks small, lmao.
Shawn Lane is one of Buckethead's biggest influences. I was sent a picture by Shawn's mother on what would have been Shawn's 50th birthday, of Buckethead carrying a sign at a live performance paying respects to Shawn while he was playing Memphis (Shawn's hometown).
People used to think he was paul Gilbert with a mask on...they both have similar style, both from long Beach, both 6'6" tall,,,,a friend of mine met them both and said they weren't the same guy...then a few years ago he was interviewed for the first time,,,his name is Brian
I can see the resemblance though for sure! This was killer and he’s such an amazing player! Can’t wait to dig into more of his catalogue. Thanks for watching!
Paul Gilbert is about 6'3" and Buckethead is slightly over 6'7". I have met them both and have met them both again in the same room together. I'm 6'5" and Buckethead is slightly taller than me and Paul Gilbert is slightly shorter than me. Took a Paul Gilbert masterclass a few years ago... it will go down as one of my greatest experiences ever; to say I have actually jammed with Paul Gilbert.
Guess i shouldnt have assumed the height difference, thought they looked around the same height. Im 6'1 barefoot, and i definately am shorter than gilbert
WOW! Terrific!!! He reminded me, here, of Victor the Guitar Nerd! It got me wondering if Victor may have initially patterned his own work on songs by Buckethead! Great reaction, Corey. Thank you! 😀
Thank you for watching Linda! I haven’t heard of him, but will definitely check him out! So much talent out there it’s impossible to have discovered it all. That’s what’s so fun about it! 😁
What else from Buckethead to check out? Well, he has literally hundreds of outstanding tracks so where to begin? Many of his best pieces are quite long so probably not suitable for reaction videos, but here are five that I think are truly special: Mount Shasta, Pitch Dark, Wall to Wall Cobwebs, Poseidon 4-6, and Celery. That's well over an hour's worth of music, but you'll be glad you took the time to listen. Once you've done that, there will be no doubt in your mind that he's the GOAT!
Congratulations and thank you for the post, for the comments, but especially for the natural reactions. I suggest: Animal Behavior, Interworld and the New Innocence, The Sultan's Massacre, etc. . 3-4 weeks ago, Buckethead created their 660th full album. I listened to them all. 🙏
I am a big fan of guns n roses and when slash left the band, buckethead was his replacement, I remember that I didn't know him and I was upset with slash's departure, but from the first chord I heard from buckethead I knew that this guy was not a normal guitarist and since then I have been a big fan of him
A bit of info for you Buckethead is a really big guy 6.5 or 6.6 feet tall so he uses a baritone guitar which is 3 or 4 inches longer 28.5 scale, he also has due to his size what used to be called piano hands meaning he has long palms and very long fingers hence the baritone guitar. which helps with the crazy stretches he can do.
You should check out younger Buckethead. In his 20`s he was untouchable. Computer Master and Interworld/Animal behaviour @ Wetlands `97 are 2 video`s showing his insane speed that equal Malmsteen`s but with his own unique feel to it. He`s the Hendrix of our generation.
if you want to see a song that highlights the uses of the killswitch perfectly check out "jordan" of course, live versions are always best with buckethead so you can see what he is doing while hearing it
I was gonna buy you a coffee for a requbut as of the fourth of august request our guaranteed. So I figured I just drop it here. Buckethead Glacier. Nobody has done that one yet
Buckethead has over 500 albums/pikes (30 min tracks) He's worried that masking buckets and team has 19 he's now 54 no one has a picture of Buckethead no one knows what he looks like. But he was too shy to play live and his friend suggested him wearing one of his masks and playing and that's what he's been doing ever since. Jorden live version Anything live since it's a reaction channel but he has so much great music.
""I had just seen Halloween IV", he recalls of a dark night in 1989, "and as soon as it was over I went into a store across the street and said 'Do you have any Michael Myers masks?' They had a white mask, which really wasn't like a Michael Myers mask, but I liked it a lot. That night I was eating chicken out of a bucket that my dad brought home. It wasn't a Kentucky Fried Chicken bucket either. It said "Deli Chicken" on the outside. I was eating it, and I put the mask on and then the bucket on my head. I went to the mirror. I just said 'Buckethead. That's Buckethead right there.' It was just one of those things. After that, I wanted to be that thing all the time."" That`s the story told by Brian himself. He invented the Buckethead persona, not one of his friends...
Great reaction to a great guitarist, the best IMHO. You teased out some things like with the wah pedal that others miss. Kudos! To really hear Buckethead shred and crank out mega riffs, try some of the longer tracks: Wallslide (will literally cause you to slide down the wall as your face melts), Coats of Claude, and Eerie Canal are great places to start. Wah pedal work in Eerie Canal is amazing.
Brian Carroll. A truly amazing player. The thing that blows my mind is, if you include all his various projects like Praxis, Frankenstein Brothers (with That1Guy), Guns N Roses, Deli Creeps, Death Cube K and solo, he has put out something in the area of 600 albums/pikes. Maybe even around 700!! Nobody else even comes close!
@@setonhillstudios - oh and this: I'm 57, thought I've heard and see the best. then this dude shows up. don't listen to much else anymore. ruclips.net/video/aHxBpPMlkhU/видео.html
Great reaction. Anyway, can i request your reaction to superb band from japan? The band is call "Lovebites" They all The Beautiful Queens Metal band right now in the earth. They are really really World class musicians. Phenomenal. And they have a lot die hard fans too. The song is "Set tne world on fire" Hope you check out, and can enjoy it too. Big thanks🙏
Why? Why is it always Soothsayer everyone reacts to? There are over 600 albums to choose songs from yet everyone chooses Soothsayer. I wish people would explore and review. Please check out some of the other stuff. Like maybe I don't know Labrontron or maybe Flare.
I agree wholeheartedly but I think "Soothsayer" is his "signature" song. Most people can't even grasp how much music this one guy has put out over the years and wouldn't even know where to start. I have known about him since the early 90's and I have only listened to maybe ⅒ of his music.
Buckethead is one of my favorite guitarists but this song, in my opinion, isn't one of his better ones. The composition itself is rather bland and redundant. My favorite Buckethead songs are more melodic and emotional. For Mom, Lone Sal Bug, Big D's Touch are great examples. Buckethead is a riff machine. Check out the album Pike 225 in your free time. It's nonstop riff after riff.

Thanks for reacting to this video! I was there, and it was phenomenal! One of the best guitar players ever!
Every time I watch this my carpal tunnel gets worse!!!
He's a shredder with musicality, which makes a hell of a difference.

"Then he took a pallid mask and he glued it to his face
And it gave him the temerity to join the human race
He stood like great Ulysses with guitar in his hand
Pledging to deflate the cynical that plague the glory land"
that's his signature Les Paul. oversized, extra frets and the kill switch.
The guy is a Legend and he's influenced my guitar playing since first discovering him off guitar hero lol. Then you go down the rabbit hole and realize he's been around forever laying down some of the best guitar playing while being relatively unknown.
He is the greatest guitar player you never heard of (or heard of, for that matter)
Buckethead is a fucking riff machine
Check out his slap bass videos. The dude is from another planet. Generational talent
He's the best there ever was or will be!
He’s great!! I love Buckethead!! 🔥🔥
Thanks so much for hanging with us and checking out the video! He’s unreal, all the stories were true!
His song Jordan highlights his kill switch mastery
Jordan, Pike 65 (Hold me forever), Aunt Suzie, Sail on Soothayer are some of my favourites but you really can't go wrong, everything he does is worth a listen. He must have almost 700 Pikes recorded by now and he playes everything from Bluegrass to Metal. He's name is Brian Carroll.

Oh wow, I didn’t know that was a thing!
Fun fact Buckethead is really good friends with Viggo Mortensen.
A bit of info for you Buckethead is a really big guy 6.5 or 6.6 feet tall so he uses a baritone guitar which is 3 or 4 inches longer 28.5 scale, he also has due to his size what used to be called piano hands meaning he has long palms and very long fingers hence the baritone guitar. which helps with the crazy stretches he can do.
That’s good to know! I noticed how big his hands were, he was all over that fretboard which normally feels inaccessible in a Les Paul!

2:03 onward is beyond any guitar playing I've ever seen. He's so dialed into that guitar, its ridiculous.
Thanks for the link!

If all yall goin to listen to the same song at least play a different version lol
Great reaction. Anyway, can i request your reaction to superb band from japan?
The band is call "Lovebites"
They all The Beautiful Queens Metal band right now in the earth.
They are really really World class musicians. Phenomenal.
And they have a lot die hard fans too.
The song is "Set tne world on fire"
Hope you check out, and can enjoy it too. Big thanks🙏
We’ve done a reaction to Lovebites in the past and they’re incredible! Definitely need to revisit them, so thanks for the suggestion on that song!
@@setonhillstudios yes I remember now. You have reacted to their song called "Holy War". Thank You.
Why? Why is it always Soothsayer everyone reacts to? There are over 600 albums to choose songs from yet everyone chooses Soothsayer. I wish people would explore and review. Please check out some of the other stuff. Like maybe I don't know Labrontron or maybe Flare.
I agree wholeheartedly but I think "Soothsayer" is his "signature" song. Most people can't even grasp how much music this one guy has put out over the years and wouldn't even know where to start. I have known about him since the early 90's and I have only listened to maybe ⅒ of his music.
@@neilpatrickhairless welcome to Bucketheadland would be the signature song actually.
KILLSWITCH
Dunno why everyone loves this performance so much. The studio is better. Ans yes I've seen him live 5x
To each his own . Personally I like him live and he never plays it the same way twice.
Buckethead is one of my favorite guitarists but this song, in my opinion, isn't one of his better ones. The composition itself is rather bland and redundant. My favorite Buckethead songs are more melodic and emotional. For Mom, Lone Sal Bug, Big D's Touch are great examples.
Buckethead is a riff machine. Check out the album Pike 225 in your free time. It's nonstop riff after riff.
Awesome, thanks for the suggestions! He’s an incredible player and I definitely wanna hear more!
pike 287
The studio version is EPIC.
