That is fantastic, after I got ISOT I wasn\'t really sure about the personalized Blueprints or DCK, I mean I was sure I wanted them but one has to compromise when you don\'t have a personal income. But this time I didn\'t hessitate to order Cyborg Slunks, something about it..
Do you know what kind of music we can expect?
Thanks a bunch.
-Carlos.
Travis, can you give us an idea of the styles on each so we can decide which to buy or not?
I assume it\'s eclectic, because it\'s Buckethead, but any general ideas can help for those of us who can\'t buy them all at once?
The first one sounds unique. The 2nd sounds like it could be a more traditional, Pepper\'s Ghost-like CD. The third, I have no clue.
YAY!
and... thank goodness for YOGA - i might have had a heart attack by now
Wow. It never ends. I didn\'t even contemplate I just instantly bought.
This is where I\'m glad I only bought one painting, and didn\'t go completely crazy and get them all. Not that there is anything wrong with that. I would have done it if I could of.
This insanely rapid pace at which buckethead is producing music this year is not helping the "buckethead is a robot" argument. :)
Awesome! I\'ll wait to get all of them at once!
Neat! I like pho too.
Buckethead is consistently grabbag. Thanks!

I would also like to know what kind of music is on Cyborg Slunks, or what albums it is similar to (such as Chicken Noodles, Death Cube K, Inbred Mountain, Cuckoo Clocks...)
We certainly are pampered....well fed fans....beyond our imagination!!

THANK YOUZ!! Buckethead and Travis!!!!!
I like surprises and I have no doubt I will be delighted.
BIG HUGZ!(http://www.websmileys.com/sm/happy/059.gif)
QuoteI like surprises and I have no doubt I will be delighted.
Haha, that\'s true. I already bought it, so there\'s no need to worry my head over it now.
Nevermind, I don\'t want to know..
yet.
whatever\'s on these albums,i\'m sure it\'s good stuff as usual;i ordered the first two and will wait for the unpersonalized version of the other to give some others a chance to get some personalized goods for a change! i\'m now more convinced than ever that bucket is a cyborg who simply gets plugged-in by travis,conkey from pee-wee style,and just starts writing new "programs" of inhumanly granduer music like electronic thought patterns! this really made my day,week,and month guys!
Rad! I cant wait! ;D
Jeez, now I am going to be even more behind in buying Buckethead music. ;D

I bought instantly too. We are the Robots!
Picked up an L.E. Cyborg Slunks.
More wedges to binge on, i\'m way past cloud 9.
thanks you camp Buckethead!!
<3 <3 <3
i was so focused on placing an L.E. order that i didn\'t even read anything about the other 2 albums :o
I went back and pre-ordered Decoding.
I\'m enthralled! Made my night.
oh man oh hek I won\'t be able to get these fer a while... :\'(
Chris DiCicco
Travis,
will any of the new albums will be available in the download store, too?
At some point, yes.
QuoteAt some point, yes.
As someone else asked earlier, do you know what any of these new albums are like?
Man, Buckethead is a machine! A robot! I am so glad, thrilled and honored to be a Buckethead fan, you really get more than you could possibly ask for.
Ordered Cyborg Slunks a while ago, and the other two will follow this Friday when I get some more cash to burn on my obsessive Buckethead addiction.
I\'ve got a fever, and the only perscription is.. no, not more cowbell, but more Buckethead! 8)
man, 20 CDs this year!!! :o :o :o
peppers, shards, 13 ISOT wedges, DCK, Blueprints, and now these 3!!!
little did i know on the day i bought enter the chicken from itunes, that i would get so many CDs afterwards. I picked the right year to become a buckethead fan!!!! :) :) :) :)
What is it like? At the moment all I can say and what I have said before, if your nervous about buying something you have never heard I would advise you don\'t till reviews are available. The music isn\'t going anywhere. Only if your interested in an early limited edition is there any incentive to buy unheard music, particularly from an artist who produces an unpredictable array of material, your expectations my be incorrect.
As soon as I have more information or samples I\'ll post them.

I\'m not worried about not liking it, I\'m just curious as to see what style he went with for the new releases.

I know what you mean, this year has turned out to be a beyond excellent year for Buckethead fans so this has got to be the best time of his career to become a fan. I just recently "celebrated" my one year anniversary as a fan, and I\'m still as thrilled to be a fan as I was when I bought my first Buckethead cd.
Life as a Buckethead-fan is good, that\'s all I\'m saying. ;D

Oh, so true!!!
For some reason Decoding The Tombs of Bansheebot strikes me as something really exciting and fun from the cover art and name, it makes me want to explore!
I feel like a kid when I look at it.
Got them all and can\'t wait Yes life IS good isn\'t it. ;D
QuoteJeez, now I am going to be even more behind in buying Buckethead music. ;D
Heh, I know what you mean. I still need to buy EMAC, Inbred Mountain, Colma, and many others.
Thanks, Travis, for letting us know about the styles expected in these releases. It\'s nice to hear you say this music isn\'t going anywhere and will be available for a while.
Samples would be outstanding if that becomes possible.

haha... I still haven\'t gotten these either but plan on getting them along with the 3 new albums!!! I\'m going to be so broke...
:\'(
I don\'t even consider whether or not to buy them . I see that there are new Buckethead CDs available and I order them. I seriously do not consider it for even a moment. Anyway, I was just commenting to a friend about how spoiled I am. He has already produced a ridiculous amount of amazing music this year, but I was jonesing for more. Well, now there is more. We are seriously the luckiest fans in the world. I can\'t think of any other artist that releases this much music. Heck, I have trouble thinking of a dozen artists that collectively release this much music in one year. Maybe Buckethead is going for a World Record. Anyway, I am babbling because I am really excited at the prospect of three more Buckethead CDs. Amazing! I can\'t wait! :D ;D 8) :) ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D Oh, and like Travis said, for those of you that are not yet fully integrated, wait for the reviews before you buy them.

Two things.
1) I don\'t post a whole Hell of a lot around here, but have been around tdrs long enough to know that what i just quoted is one of Travis\' more ingenious posts.
2) A question to Travis. Will the new monographed L.E. offering have the "original" artwork, like Blueprints did? (The Blueprints L.E. offering came with a print of the original artwork)
I\'m hoping you can answer this question, as it has an influence on whether or not i purchase the "regular" version of Cyborg Slunks.
Thank you in advance,
-Ray
Well in so much as each cover of the limited edition of CS is a unique drawing it won\'t be possible to have "the" cover as in blueprints. At the moment I have no idea what the final non-limited edition will look like. It will probably be something more like ISOTs original cover for the non-limited set. But possibly something else entirely. It\'s too soon to say. Not very helpful I know.
QuoteFor some reason Decoding The Tombs of Bansheebot strikes me as something really exciting and fun from the cover art and name, it makes me want to explore!

I fully agree with you on this. It gives me that "Indiana Jones" feeling, you know? Here\'s the legendary Tomb of Bansheebot, so what could be inside, what dangers lurk within? You definitely feel like exploring it, like you said, probing it for its inmost secrets. Every nook and cranny, vault and hallway.
I hope it lives up to my high expectations, and even if it doesn\'t live up to that "Indiana Jones" feel, I\'m sure it will satisfy me in so many other ways.
wow I\'m blown away! this is amazing! 3 more cd\'s by buckethead! I\'m broke unfortunately :( but get paid next thursday! just in time to place my order for all 3 cd\'s!
Snagged myself a copy of cyborg slunks. I may get the other two for christmas or when i get some money.
Sweet! Any new Bucket material is good material.
The stuff with Brewer and Brain I\'m sure will be vinatage BH.
The Albert percussion orchestra or whatever will be strange, I\'m sure.
Thx Buckethead!
Too bad I won\'t be seeing you at the HOB this year in the last weekend of Ocotober, like I have the last two years. My kids are bummed that they aren\'t going to Disneyland. next year hopefully.
MRB
Ordered "Kevin\'s" and "Bansheebot" yesterday!!!
2007 seems to be a very good Bucket-year... ::) 8) ;D

You absolutely have to buy EMAC its just perfect! Now my fav bucket album! ;D
just bought all three, along with the ISOT box set, this is gonna be one hell of a birthday!

Wow, talk about a binge... that will be one hell of a birthday gift!!!
Well what a year, indeed.... Time to think about the pros and cons...
Cons:
But to be honest... I think there is quite an "inflation" on Limited editions and self drawn covers. Is Buckethead buying out?
Don´t let me be missunterstood: I am a fan and I really love to hear him play;
But you can say that there are no real limited editions because nearly every new cd gets a limited tag that is similar to the others .... there´s nothing limited to it anymore.... It is getting normal for a Buckethead CD to be selfdrawn.At least for the first 500 - 1000 issues. It is not limited anymore but part of the new Buckethead cover style.
Pros:
But what we can say is that Travis and Buckethead invented the selfpainted limited cover.... and that is something fresh, others don´t have. Getting a CD that is handcrafted and signed gets you nearer to the artist. What Travis does is unique! Regular Record companies won´t manage that. This is web 2.0! Keep it going!!! We love it....
"waying the pros and cons":
I ´ll check out the new ones! Thats for sure....
Greetings;

I agree, it is true fan appreciation to take the time after recording 3 new albums to autograph however many copies there will be.
i\'ve ordered the trilogy.
Man, the more I think about these albums, the more I look forward to hearing them. The wait is just unbearably excrutiating! I\'ve got a feeling this is going to be very awesome indeed. ;D

Same here, there are three empty slots already prepared for all three albums in my collection. I want them so bad, it feels like they are three holes in my soul. It feels like they are my heart, brain and lungs, that\'s how important they feel to me.
Ok, maybe I\'m exaggurating a bit here, but it\'s still pretty darn close I\'d say. ;D
