A quick review:
Over all this Cd is awesome but is too short. It's like a roller coaster changing from chill to freakout within the songs themselves. The first song is so good that I would buy this recording just for this song (if i didn't already purchase it.)  So thank you Buckethead for another ass kick'n.

Track 1 - My favorite on this recording.  It's like Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde moving from a very lovely piece to straight out ass kicking.  The song moves like this from mellow guitar only to shred many different times.  You can tell that Buckethead put some time into this song.  The metal riff are so fast and notey that its hard to air guitar to it hahahaha.

Track 2 - Has more of a metal feel throughout the whole song even though it does chill for a minute in the middle of the song.  The chunky riffs at the beginning are boss with solo over it all.  Then it goes mellow and slowly crescendos back to a metal song the whole time soloing.  Then the song ends on some mellowness for a few seconds.

Track 3 - This song starts out really strong incorporating metal and clean in the riffs alone.  About a minute into the song it goes mellow for a few seconds before kicking ass again it does this a couple times.  Then the song takes a major shift to solo.  The solo is good but the backing track is lacking. The dynamics of the solo fall short because of the repetitive backing track changes and the solo does not.  This part of the song is way too long and solo not bad ass enough to keep it going.  Once he jumps back into the song it's all good again.  This is my least favorite because of the middle of the song, unfortunately because it's the longest song.

Track 4 - Death Cube K has made an appearance.

Track 5 - Starts out with a notey riff that goes chunk.  Break for a mellow part that pops back into metal with a solo (great dynamics!)  It goes back to mellowness then into a more heartfelt solo laden with the whammy bar over a clean riff.  Good stuff man!

Track 6 - Reminds me of an In Search of the... song.  Drums way back in the mix with the bass.  Awesome solo over the whole song and again he's using that whammy bar.

Track 7 - I love it when he does songs without any accompaniment, just him and a guitar.  He's playing an acoustic and he plays a bit then breaks then plays again.  Because of that alone it reminds me of Who me? I would love another recording devoted to this type of playing.

Agree with Beau.

Too short, like a sip of delicious mango nectar. Need those four main tunes longer,  or simply having three more songs with five minutes length averagely.
