Okay /mu/ red pill me on this guy. Why does he wear the mask? And the bucket? Is he mentally ill? Is he the Viper of buttrock?

ive heard he went full retard with the albums when his parents died but idk if true
It's not hard to record yourself fucking around on guitar and put it online. I don't really consider that an "album".
>>66472033
He's certainly very talented. His music is decent. Certainly not buttrock, but not fantastic. Just search whatever songs are popular on YouTube or something. I don't really think you'd be missing out on anything by just listening to singles. As far as the mask, I'm pretty sure I heard he's legit autistic and just doesn't like showing his face in front of people.

start with IMO pike 13https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KvLSChEP-rY
nah he's cool just feels comfy in mask while performing. alot of his releases are just jam sessions he recorded

Which albums of his would you recommend? And what music are you into? I'm just curious. Thanks.

this nigga got a bucket of fried chicken on his head.
Buckethead can practically play anything.
>>66472033
closest to being immaculate in guitar playing. has an overwhelming range and music theory knowledge. can pull of every technique and playing style perfectly.
best guitar player objectively, amazing musician subjectively.
>>66476370
that's fanalo alaux, there are only 2 pics of buckethead without the mask: pic related and the cover of Pike 13
dead serious: He wears the mask because he's a nerd.
yes, thats a real picture. It was taken in the deli-creep days, when he was about 20 years old.
OP, if you're going to listen to any album by this guy, it has to be pic related.
