For me, this whole album, Population Override, says a lot without any words, other than titles. Still shapes form in old dooders head and Helplessness, Fear, Compassion, Humanity are a few words that it brings to mind
The skyscrapers slowly disappearing in the unstoppable growth of nature, the sky looking so unreal, like plastic - like it was meant to show how transient our world actually is. Love the album art as well as the album. This album seems pretty deep to me, actually, like he wanted to tell us a story or a message, maybe. Years ago this was the second Buckethead album i listened to, rigth after Electric Sea. Totally got me hooked on this guy. Impossible to deny this genius
This album is a masterpiece. The song tittles are like chapters of a novel, they tell a story, the very propably story of the makind in this planet: the grown of our race, the abuse of the mother earth, our self destruction and the birth of a new planet without humans. Of course the music helps to tell the "novel" without words, is the magic of Buckethead.
This album is so fucking deep and yet experimental.. It's very difficult to describe it. It's funky, it's got soul and blues but it's also gentle and beautiful... This might be bucketheads best album from an artistic standpoint. Holy shit, and I've listened to hundreds of his pikes and of course all his studio work. Mind is currently melted by this
