Brian Patrick Carroll, known as Buckethead, has released more than 600 albums and 300 live bootlegs. Where most know him is from his brief time with Guns ‘n Roses. Between 2000 and 2004, Buckethead was a lead guitarist of the band, playing on Chinese Democracy and touring wih them.

Inspired by Halloween 4: The Return of Michael Myers, Buckethead never takes off his mask, as well as the KFC bucket on his head that says FUNERAL. As he ate chicken one night, he said “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.”

Since then, he has stayed in character, often communicating through a hand puppet named “Herbie” or simply letting his fingers do the talking at a speed that defies human anatomy.

This DVD serves as a chaotic time capsule, celebrating 13 years of the artist’s most formative and bizarre moments. Eschewing high-definition gloss, the footage is presented in a grainy, SOV (Shot-On-Video) style that feels like a cursed VHS tape found in the basement of an abandoned amusement park.

The appeal of Buckethead is binary. If you are a fan, this collection is a holy relic of The Coop. If you aren’t initiated into his world of nunchucks, robot dancing, and 12-minute experimental shred-fests, this DVD will likely leave you deeply disturbed and utterly confused.
