Why? Because all their other albums have at least a couple weaker, skippable tracks. This however is a no-nonsense, no-holds-barred hard rock prog album. 4 tracks, 36 minutes, all straight fire.rHemispheres: Banger!rCircumstances: Banger!rThe Trees: Banger!rLa Villa: Ultra Banger!rI need say no more.Tenacious D The Pick of DestinyTenacious D Tenacious D LiveVince Guaraldi Trio A Charlie Brown ChristmasWeird Al Yankovic The Essential Weird Al YankovicWendy Carlos The Shining4.5 superbAC/DC Back In BlackArlo Guthrie Alice's RestaurantBoston BostonBuckethead Tucked Into DreamsBuckethead WishesBuckethead A Real Diamond In The RoughBuckethead Shadows Between The SkyBuckethead Look Up ThereBuckethead Electric SeaBuckethead The Spirit WindsBuckethead The AstrodomeBuckethead Pearson's SquareBuckethead Buckethead Pikes #43Buckethead Hold Me Forever (In memory of my mom)Dream Theater Metropolis Pt. 2: Scenes from a MemoryDream Theater Metropolis 2000: Scenes From New YorkEminem The Slim Shady LPEminem The Marshall Mathers LPEminem The Marshall Mathers LP 2George Crumb Black AngelsJean Baudin SolaceKendrick Lamar To Pimp a ButterflyKing Crimson In the Court of the Crimson KingMetallica Master Of PuppetsMetallica MetallicaOpeth Still LifeOpeth LamentationsOpeth In Live Concert at the Royal Albert HallRush Moving PicturesRush R40 LiveRush Rush In RioScott Walker The DriftSex Pistols Never Mind the Bollocks, Here's the Sex PistolsSmosh Connecting WorldsTenacious D Tenacious DI accidentally clicked 4 since it was next to the 4.5 box.Yngwie Malmsteen Rising ForceMy favorite Yngwie album. This was when he showed at least SOME restraint. After this album he started shredding away at literally every opportunity, and became a bit too OTT for my taste. This album though really strikes a good balance between technical showmanship and emotional impact. Some tracks are stronger than others, but the overall quality is very good. I could scarcely imagine how mind blowing this must've sounded in '84. Definitely one of the most influential and important guitar albums of all time.4.0 excellentAnnihilator Alice In HellAnnihilator Never, NeverlandBlack Sabbath 13Black Sabbath Black SabbathBlack Sabbath ParanoidBuckethead 25 Days Til Halloween: Window FragmentBuckethead BucketheadlandBuckethead Monsters & RobotsBuckethead Acoustic ShardsBuckethead Worms for the GardenBuckethead Coat Of CharmsBuckethead FootstepsBuckethead In The Hollow HillsBuckethead The MoltrailBuckethead Project Little ManBuckethead Infinity of the SpheresBuckethead Shaded RayBuckethead ConiunctioBuckethead Claymation CourtyardBuckethead View MasterBuckethead The Dragons Of EdenBuckethead Northern LightsBuckethead Live in BucketheadlandCharles Mingus The Black Saint and the Sinner LadyDavid Bowie BlackstarDeath Cube K DreamatoriumDeath Grips ExmilitaryDream Theater OctavariumDream Theater Breaking the Fourth WallDream Theater Live at BudokanDream Theater A Change Of SeasonsEminem Curtain Call: The HitsEminem InfiniteEthereal Shroud TrisagionI'm really not a black metal fan, but checked this album out because of the hype. Coming from someone usually wary of black metal, I was deeply impressed. I never thought I'd call black metal beautiful, but the first track was genuinely beautiful. Even brought a tear to my eye at a couple points. The rest of the album is good but never reaches the highs of the first track again.

On one hand, the lyrics are extremely immature and sound like Afroman wrote them while smoking all the blunts he got for Christmas. On the other, there's an undeniable, fun, goofy energy, especially on songs like "Frosty" and "Police Blow My Wad". None of the tracks overstay their welcome, except "Violent Night", creeping up on 6 minutes. Many of the song titles may be parodies of existing Christmas songs, but a lot of effort was put into the funky instrumental tracks. It even sounds like they recorded real instruments on some of them.Buckethead Giant RobotBuckethead Electric TearsBuckethead Crime Slunk SceneBuckethead From The CoopBuckethead Pitch DarkBuckethead Fourneau CosmiqueBuckethead Robes of CitrineBuckethead NettleBuckethead Veins Of InstitutionBuckethead The Coats of ClaudeBuckethead GlowormsBuckethead Unexpected JourneysChildren of Bodom HatebreederD'Angelo VoodooDeath Cube K TunnelDeath Cube K Torn from Black SpaceDethklok The Dethalbum Dethklok Dethalbum IIDethklok Dethalbum IIIDream Theater AwakeDream Theater The AstonishingDream Theater Six Degrees of Inner TurbulenceDream Theater Distance Over TimeDream Theater Black Clouds and Silver LiningsEvanescence FallenGreen Day American IdiotIron Maiden The Number Of The BeastJudas Priest PainkillerJustin Timberlake FutureSex/LoveSoundsKomar, Melamid and Dave Soldier People's Choice MusicLinkin Park Hybrid TheoryLinkin Park MeteoraLiquid Tension Experiment Liquid Tension ExperimentLurker Of Chalice Lurker Of ChaliceMeshuggah INeutral Milk Hotel In the Aeroplane Over the SeaOpeth OrchidOpeth Blackwater ParkOpeth DeliveranceOpeth HeritagePantera Far Beyond DrivenPantera The Great Southern TrendkillPantera Reinventing the SteelPraxis Transmutation (Mutatis Mutandis)Primus They Can't All Be ZingersPrimus AntipopRadiohead The BendsRadiohead Kid ARadiohead A Moon Shaped PoolRush RushRush Permanent WavesRush CounterpartsRush SignalsSlayer God Hates Us AllSnoop Dogg DoggystyleTenacious D Rize of the FenixThe Caretaker An Empty Bliss Beyond This WorldThe Flaming Lips 24 Hour Song SkullThe Lonely Island IncredibadThe Lonely Island Turtleneck and ChainTyler, the Creator IgorUlver Shadows of the SunUlver Bergtatt - Et eeventyr i 5 capitlerWeezer The White AlbumWeezer OK HumanWeird Al Yankovic Mandatory Fun3.0 goodAnnihilator Set the World on FireAnthrax Among The LivingAvril Lavigne Let GoBuckethead Bucketheadland 2Buckethead Enter The Chicken (Reissue)Buckethead Enter the ChickenBuckethead Grand GalleryBuckethead Once Upon A Distant PlaneBuckethead A3Buckethead Warm Your AncestorsBuckethead Rise of the Blue LotusBuckethead Albino SlugBuckethead Thank you Ohlinger'sBuckethead SkywatchingBuckethead Many Moons Ago And NowBuckethead Communicating Through The StarsBuckethead Healing Inside Outside Every SideBuckethead Smelting Of OresBuckethead The Tin PlagueDeafheaven SunbatherDeath Cube K DisembodiedDream Theater A Dramatic Turn of EventsDream Theater Train of ThoughtDream Theater Live At The MarqueeDream Theater ParasomniaEminem RecoveryGorillaz GorillazJacob Collier In My RoomKaoru Abe Winter 1972Meshuggah Contradictions CollapseMetallica Death MagneticMichael Angelo Batio Planet GeminiMichael Jackson DangerousNeutral Milk Hotel On Avery IslandOpeth My Arms, Your HearseOpeth Pale CommunionPrimus Green NaugahydePussycat Dolls PCDRadiohead OK ComputerRush Clockwork AngelsRush Snakes & ArrowsRush Vapor TrailsRush Grace Under PressureRush Power WindowsSlayer Hell AwaitsThe Lonely Island The Wack AlbumUlver Nattens MadrigalWeezer PinkertonWeird Al Yankovic Alpocalypse2.5 averageAqua AquariumAvril Lavigne The Best Damn ThingBuckethead Day of the RobotBuckethead Somewhere Over the SlaughterhouseBuckethead The Cuckoo Clocks of HellBuckethead The Mines of Sigismund FuggerBuckethead Roller Coaster Track RepairBuckethead The Coloring Of MetalsBuckethead GalaxiesChris Brown Chris Brown"Run It", "Yo (Excuse Me Miss)", and "Say Goodbye" are good songs.

My biggest criticism is his style is very generic. In my humble opinion, he doesn't offer much to distinguish himself from other 80s shredders, despite his clear technical proficiency. It's mostly generic pentatonic stuff that's boring to listen to. Compare this to say, Yngwie Malmsteen's Rising Force. That album had genuinely beautiful, epic compositions, with groundbreaking, simultaneously emotional and technical guitar work that set the standard for guitar shredding for at least the next decade. Surfing With The Alien doesn't feel like it breaks any new ground. It's a well done, generic 80s rock record with lots of whammy dives. If this came put BEFORE Rising Force, I could maybe cut it some slack, but this was 3 years AFTER what I consider a much better and more influential shred album.Metallica LoadMichael Angelo Batio No BoundariesMoonman WhitetopiaRush Caress Of SteelRush Test For EchoRush A Show Of HandsRush Hold Your FireSlayer Seasons In The AbyssSmosh Sexy AlbumSmosh SmoshtasticSmosh If Music Were Real2.0 poorBuckethead KFC Skin PilesBuckethead Funnel WeaverBuckethead VacuumBuckethead Cyborg SlunksBuckethead River In The SkyBuckethead Lunar TreeBuckethead Whale SongBuckethead Arrival In TokyoBuckethead Inner RainbowsDream Theater Dream TheaterElvis Presley Elvis' Greatest ShitI think everyone here is being a little too hard on this album. Yes, this is meant to be his worst material, and the songs range from extremely corny, to straight up bad, to unusable outtakes. I'm giving it a slightly higher score because Elvis' talent still shines through. He and his backing musicians (who I thought were good no matter what), help elevate this schlock to something, well, maybe not "listenable", but definitely entertaining. I enjoyed having this album on. All the songs are short, so if any one track is too annoying for you, it won't be long until you move on to the next one. His rendition of "Old Macdonald" slaps, too.Eminem EncoreEminem RelapseJacob Collier Djesse Vol. 4Limp Bizkit Chocolate Starfish and the Hot Dog Flavored WaterLou Reed Metal Machine MusicMetallica St. AngerNurse With Wound A Sucked OrangeI've heard clashing opinions on this album, from being an avant-garde masterpiece to one of the worst albums ever made. The album is random, incoherent, and inconsistent. Some tracks are fun to listen to, some "interesting", and others lame, pointless, and skippable. There's no real unifying theme here. This literally sounds like an album I would've cobbled together when I was 18; a bunch of short tracks of varying genre and quality that would be classed as "ideas" or "snippets" more so than fully realized songs. The only reason I enjoy ambient and dark ambient music is it at least evokes an atmosphere you can get lost in. This album fails to create any sort of atmosphere, other than maybe that of a meandering dream quickly becoming a nightmare.Pantera Metal MagicRush Roll The BonesRush PrestoShaquille O'Neal Shaq DieselTenacious D Post-ApocalyptoI love the D, but this album feels like a miscalculation. There are way too many skits, taking up half of the album's already short 30 minute runtime. Even the quality of the actual songwriting is sub par. I don't know if I'm getting old but I found the attempts at humor more dumb than funny. Most of the tracks are more like ideas than fully realized songs. I appreciate the attempts at incorporating different musical styles, and 5 or 6 of the tracks combined with the Post-Apocalypto theme could've made for a good epic similar to "City Hall". As is, I recommend starting with the D's earlier work.1.5 very poorBuckethead KaleidoscalpBuckethead Spinal ClockBuckethead PumpkinBuckethead Dreamless SlumberBuckethead Kevin's Noodle HouseBuckethead DecoratingThis is without a doubt one of the worst and laziest things Buckethead has ever released. It's a single 30-minute track consisting solely of the same progression repeated about 31 times. Literally. No changes, no variation, no real song structure to speak of. This sounds like a backing track he was supposed to solo over, but forgot to. There's no other tracks to add variety, just the same acoustic and clean electric guitar progression repeated over and over and over. It sounds quite nice, happy, and warm at first, before quickly wearing out its welcome. By the 12-minute mark, I was getting angry at this looped progression. What was the rationale behind this? Are you supposed to decorate your Christmas tree to this? Is the monotony supposed to get you in the decorating zone? Does this album require a passive listening experience to get through? This is the only rationale I can find behind such a baffling lazy release. It's no secret Buckethead pretty transparently puts more effort into some albums than others, but this just feels insulting.Buckethead Divine SparkCrazy Frog Crazy Frog Presents Crazy HitsEl Duce Slave to Thy MasterEl Duce Karaoke King 1Elvis Presley Having Fun with Elvis on StageEoghan Quigg Eoghan QuiggEtienne Sin Sinna: Volume 1Farrah Abraham My Teenage Dream EndedKevin Federline Playing with FireKid Rock Bad ReputationLou Reed and Metallica LuluMacho Man Randy Savage Be A ManMetallica ReloadNecrobutcher Schizophrenic Noisy TormentNitro Nitro II: H.W.D.W.S.Nitro O.F.R.Checked this album out for the only reason anyone else did, Michael Angelo Batio on guitars. His technique is incredible, and there's no faster guitarist at his level of fame, but I never thought he was the greatest songwriter. This album is a tiring, one-dimensional listen. It's just riffs, high pitched vocal shrieks that sound like Rockso The Rock N' Roll Clown from Metalocalypse, and crazy fast guitar shredding for 50-or-so minutes. Even on "Long Way From Home", which is supposed to be the slower, ballad type track, it starts with this nice acoustic intro, but is quickly ruined by the wailing vocals. A couple minutes in it abruptly switches to fast shredding that totally clashes with the established tone the song was going for. Even if you wanted to get heavy there, a more melodic solo would've been much more appropriate. As far as positives, "Freight Train" and "Machine Gun Eddie" are listenable. Vocalist Jim Gillette even holds a note for 30 straight seconds on MGE, which is really impressive to listen to, and the track tries switching it up by experimenting with some thrash-inspired riffs and drumbeats. Otherwise, steer clear unless you're a huge fan of MAB or 80s hair metal. Even then, I'm not sure how much new this album has to offer.1.0 awfulApator Masturbate in Praise of Black SatanbrokeNCYDE I'm Not a Fan, but the Kids Like It!Buckethead Marble MonstersBuckethead Of The RaysChristian And The Hedgehog Boys Christian and the Hedgehog BoysCorey Feldman Angelic 2 The CoreDee Dee King Standing In The SpotlightHello Kitty Suicide Club ^_^Hulk Hogan and The Wrestling Boot Band Hulk RulesJake Paul and Team 10 LitmasKid Cudi Speedin' Bullet 2 HeavenKorn The Path of TotalityLil Dicky PenithNostalgia Critic The WallThe Shaggs Philosophy of the WorldWilliam Hung Inspiration
