Buckethead I come in peace

[JoeyKrogstad]

Holy fuck this is good!

[KingGrio]

After an epiphany, I came to realize this song is actual totally awesome.

I believe it struck me when I put this song back into its concept album context.

Now I just headbang when I hear the riffs and totally picture all the events depicted in my head, and I totally have a good time listening to this song.

[MrWtfnonames123]

run for your lives !

[spartan934]

the riff at 5:21 makes me headbang as if i was listening to Megadeth...buckethead and Dave Mustaine, the two gods of guitar playing, with marty friedman being jesus christ of course

[irishsamurai]

@spartan934 Dave Mustaine is good, but he isn't Buckethead-good

[dread0me0sheeps]

@irishsamurai \m/ but the two kick ass

[RetroSparkles]

Typical Buckethead :p

[snakev10v5]

I would love to ride those sound waves buckehead causes by playing!

[killer88buzz]

RUN FOR YOUR LIVES!!!!! Anyone know who the voice over is? i swear it sounds like Bill Mosselly "otis" bjm355 or cows... do you know??

[clkvlk]

fucking virtuoso

[1StopMusic]

LOOK AT THE SIZE OF THOSE SHOES!

[CleanseTheSoul]

Oh my god, the beginning is so beautiful; I just want it to play for the rest of my life.

[headfishee]

00:56 1:02 I Cum im me jizz.

[bjm355]

Hey, he got the same announcer as Frank Zapa!

[killer88buzz]

@bjm355 do you happen to know who it is?... just curious

[msoutofcontrol29]

@killer88buzz Not a clue, Killer... I would like to know, though!!

[youngjedi80]

@msoutofcontrol29 yeah, it is Bill Mossely - aka Chop Top. Search for "Cornbugs" videos - he and Bucket are going insane in those vids

[youngjedi80]

@youngjedi80 Bill *Moseley

[CleanseTheSoul]

Ever since I heard this song, the intro is always stuck in my head...FUCK...its so beautiful.

[dangerousDAM]

That intro ballad should be made into a song itself!

[lonesalcornbug]

I like your work.ive seen other things youve done and I like those as well.what are you working on and with now?

[LehmannDaHero]

If buildings collapse, roads buckle and cars fly about like toys everytime he plays a note, could that mean that the earthquake in japan was caused by buckethead when he happened to play jordan?

[rprdoXD]

Such a underated song, even though it's awesomeness can't be denied. (:

[MisstressMourtisha]

I goin to his concert with me dad WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

[Skatersteve199]

/watch?v=QrZFyN49LZU check out my buckethead inspired instrumental.

[CleanseTheSoul]

I just wish I could listen to the beginning forever...its so beautiful...how the fuck does Buckethead just pull shit out of his ass like that?!

[rprdoXD]

I laughed when heard this for the first time. LOL

[super2rofl]

Bow to the buckethead!!!!!!!!!!

[misterfish2266]

this song is amazing haha but does anyone know if thats buckethead thats talking or who it is??

[fastcarsnguitars1]

@misterfish2266 les claypool

[Butzopower]

I love Choptop; he's so funny on the Cornbug albums.

[BELACSAMOHT]

Bill Moseley FTW

[napierdalacz102]

any one want to tab the solo ? ^^

[1234gnrslash]

@napierdalacz102 ...........

[ILikexMusic]

Buckethead has a strange interest in chickens :P

[dannyhood66]

Buckethead vs Godzilla!

[xBrandonNWIx]

Look at the size of those SHOES!!!

[thebehmont1]

This just in: we have unconfirmed reports that Tokyo is under attack...

By a 50-foot man with a... white face?...

A chicken bucket on his head, uh... carrying an enormous guitar...

According to this report, whenever he plays a note...

The sonic waves cause whole buildings to explode,...

Streets to buckle and split and vehicles to fly about like toys...

[joaosilvasc]

Oh god the randmness xD I love Buckethead, he's awesome

[SpudStimson]

Before he goes to bed, Chuck Norris checks his closet for Buckthead.

[tanga696]

he is.......

i dont know

he is just a god with his guitar

[guyguy1800]

1:05 - 1:40 yea that sounds about right

[NeutralAtJSP]

3:15 sounds amazing

[crimsonflare506]

LOOK AT ALL THOSE JEWS!

[Ben70707]

CHICKEN'S BOW BEFORE BUCKETHEAD!

[CarlosTevezNR1Fan]

this is the reason he pwns chuck norris

[ThrashTillDutch]

It starts to get awesome after 5:20.

[ICI4MOR3VII]

bucket head is gonna go blow away godzilla,haters,and all the other giant monsters of the past with one POWERFUL guitar riff... HECK YEA.

[robonightmare]

Fortified chicken coop on Mount Fuji? WANT.

[napierdalacz102]

the intro sounds like some USA super hero them :P

[Red0Stratrock]

please never retire

[Kjjoker1]

dang , this dude is the best guitarist .. ya know he is playing the " i come in peace" part with his guitar?

[leighThe4th]

its a effect pedal which is hooked up to his guitar and a mic... i'm pretty sure. its teh same thing bon jovi uses

[ChrisRAM96]

@leighThe4th it's called a Talkbox

[monoultra4545]

i think this is about how a giant monster is hated on citiys when they just want peace

[TheDailyTraceur]

Or it's his love for himself, which i really must say is AWESOME GODDAMNIT!!

[masterflak]

AHHHRAHHH I SCREWED UP

[wasup23tube]

buckethead's favorite cartoon character was plankton off of spongebob. therefore the song plankton and he always likes to fantasize like plankton about being 50 ft tall and destoying the city. this was all bs i dont really know but thats what it reminds me of haha

[jonen95]

i think its cald, I come TO peace??

[n00bzorman]

i think its CALLED I Come In Peace, like what the voice is saying in the breaks.

[fippysteed]

would be cool if there was a proper video for this song.

[rawrdinosaur11]

buckethead would whoop his ass

[stormyandcold]

2:44 Whats he playing? Whats he saying?

Run for your lives!!! :D

[pku2lumby13]

Rofl look at the size of those SHOESSSSSS!@!@!@!@

[EarthSprout]

I love this song!

[breal2007]

could make one for do you want some slaw

[rawrdinosaur11]

if anyone doesn't understand the meaning of this song, it's that their talking about how powerful and destructive he is, whilst in the backround he proclaims "I come in peace", which is saying that he is not meaning to be so destructive, and menacing

[rawrdinosaur11]

whoa, when did i get so deep?? :3

[n00bzorman]

he is just freeing the chickens from the injustice they suffer.

[n00bzorman]

wouldnt you be scared if a giant man with a white face and a chicken bucket on his head with a giant guitar came stomping ass through your city?

[MusicIsFunn]

The intro sounds like the most badass power ballad

[metalfreak4677]

YOU DONT FUCK WITH BUCKETHEAD!!!!!!!

[Andruszsek]

5: 40 OMG I don't know why, but it always makes me imagine Buckethead who miss the string of his guitar XD Yah, I know that's not him, but it's funny to think that way, lol.

[pku2lumby13]

That would be maximum bob

[BucketbotX]

Notice how the guy said white FACE.

Translation: Stop trying to look for my face assholes!

Not directing this to anyone in these comments but it just gave me that idea.

[CoNsUmEThE4SaKeN]

lolburgers dude

[saedt]

my goodness you just gotta love that powerful riff

[burninations1]

LOOK AT THE SIZE OF THOSE SHOES! lmfao!!! haha best part!

[lklklkpob]

liked the vid :-) song is minted

[RoflCopter101101101]

LOOK AT THE SIZE OF THOSE SHOES! XD

[Munozman1995]

video is posted september 11

[nunchuckies]

...Oh.....My.....God..... I almost skipped it because I thought the audio had been removed, I would've had to kill myself later on if i had.

[DidiCroc]

His guitar is awesome :| what model is it?

[sinther1]

It's a custom Les Paul.

[robonightmare]

yeah, buckethead could do that.

[titanium53]

Did you know under bucketheads mask he doesn't have a face, just a massive black hole. And also the reason he wears the bucket is because he is a secret agent for colonel sanders. Anyway he is amazing, his music is insane!

[guitarlord390]

Now thats a much better idea of Buckethead then people trying to get pictures of him. Makes me think he's kindof like the stig (google if you don't know)

[titanium53]

Heh heh, yeah i know the stig. Top gear ftw!

[n00bzorman]

his mask IS his face

[wasup23tube]

what mask?

[n00bzorman]

people keep saying " i wonder what he looks like under the mask". the mask is his face! what we know as mask he calls face. he must think we're all wearing odd looking masks.

[fonad2]

honestly, i don't want to see his face. it adds to the mystery. 20 years since that one famous guitar ad. 20 years! i love it!

[KaiserFate]

Those are petty details, Karas. I want you to understand his rather... SPECIAL TALENTS.

[CyberSlunk]

This rules Buckethead never ceases to amaze me, (when ever he plays a note the sonic wave causes bulidings to explode) love it!!!!!!!!!

[oilkills]

Did it begin with dialogue of characters from Spectreman?!

Buckethead and Claypool... SMASHING!

[saedt]

make a buckethead playlist with only the calm songs bitte :>

[GibsonRock4All]

i got one with some of his mostly chill songs

check on my channel

its called sleepy time

[groscool21]

good song and

BUCKETHEAD FOR EVER

[mistirio125]

even if this song was a joke its still awsome

[halabalo195]

WTF...XD?

[Reaper2794]

Found it hehe.

[Reaper2794]

1:40 is where the real rock begins.

FUCK THE WORLD BUCKETHEAD FOR LIFE!!!!

[TheDisasterOfPompei]

you suck, buckethead rules jerkoff

[Bauerbutchers]

And Power and Gory by the cornbugs

[MerryMullet]

Wow same guitar as Random Killings hahaha exact same

[Bonkava]

He's allowed to recycle it. XD

[allyshank]

haha he recycles most of the solo stuff aswell

pay close attention hehe

[xXKushmanXx]

Its not for sure that his face was scratched off. 1 reason that IS true, is that he wore it because he was a big fan of the Halloween movies. Which also reasons why he did the Halloween theme. (Michael Meyers Theme)

[thepoopsmith666]

I'm glad somebody here knows the story. <3 Buckethead.

[SolidKennedy]

you hear the quality difference from today and the studios back then.

[Candycow12]

awesome i've always loved this song especially the stomping part lol it sounds cool

[planetsloan]

Jimi, Eddie, Stevie rule...fried chicken rules...bucketface is ok too...whale savers and vegetarians .. kiddin yerselves

[TheDancingHeretic]

Buckethead, actually.

[Daemon000Prince]

buckethead got the idea to wear a the white mask after watching Halloween IV, but im not sure y he wears the KFC bucket but i heard he wears to because he hates the fact of "slaughtering chickens" thats y he has "Funeral" on the bucket. AH I SCREWED UP!

[rockerama03]

is this supposed to be a song about a faggot hater? or is it actually a buckethead song

[beccagirl45]

this song is awesome. just like buckethead

[MIZZxJAYD33xCAKES]

go screw ur self dude!

[durpadoo]

You sir, are an idiot.

[ManBearJTS]

im sorry... you mean... You sir, are and idiot.

[mcgaugh57]

OMG, you have no concept.

[NixNay90]

This song is freaking funny. It kicks ass, as all buckethead music does, but it made me laugh, all the GODZILLA movie stuff warning sirens and announcments and stuff. 5 r go to this.

[boombastic9789]

now thats how you play guitar

[mrkibbles369]

techno viking is really Keith Jardeen from the UFC hahaha he's an MMA fighter.

[inuboy23]

Well your all wrong. Buckethead is half man half chicken. Just watch the DVD.

[ETMadScientist]

hmm, i wonder if his thing with chickens is because he has stage fright and thinks of himself as a chicken?

[m4airsofter]

Sorta. He has stage fright, but he just wanted some kinda theme. I kinda forget the story behind it, but somehow he got the idea to wear a bucket. Oh yeah and he didn't want people to know who he is and like see him on the streets...all the stuff that celebs get.

[thackerlol]

You are a complete idiot.

Not is half the 'amusing' subject matter of this comment spelt wrong, it's not even original.

Don't worry, I'm sure your mother thinks you're funny.

[haamyo]

dewd thats a tad harsh =/

he was just tryna amuse us lol

[ungface]

rofl you ar e a fag.

[hyperhunk90]

his shredding solos on this one sounds like a video game.. i heart buckethead!!

[FatToti]

Buckethead is not the person behind the mask. Buckethead is a persona created by the guitarist whose real name is Brian Carroll. Buckethead's story has nothing to do with Brian's story. They're not supposed to be the same person, take that into consideration before arguing about what's true and what's not.

[wildhorsestudios1421]

I can attest to that.

[BG2trillceez]

Oh, and the one that MusicIsFunn posted is another.

[MusicIsFunn]

I didnt get that from some myspace that claims to be BH I got it from his website.

[BG2trillceez]

3 Speculations.

It was Halloween and he found the white mask lying around, He was eating KFC and decided to put the Bucket on his head, thus creating his look(I'll post a link as soon as I find the source.. It was either the Buckethead FAQ or his direct website).

And last but not least, he doesn't want FAME, he wants people to listen to the emotions he puts into his guitar playing instead of his image and look.

The last one is a fact. It was proven he stated it in his website.

[lordpudding10]

He was eating some KFC and watching Halloween 4,

and loved the mask so he bought a mask and put the bucket on his head ;3

[MusicIsFunn]

You guys just assume that its stage fright go to BUCKETHEADS site and see for yourself. I dont beleive it 100% but at least what I said is straight from Big B and not just making a guess about why he wears the mask

[MusicIsFunn]

He wears a mask because when he was a child he was forced to live in a chicken coop and the chickens scratched his face up so bad he had to wear that mask

[chrislickmyballs]

go kill urself that is not true

[stefanXsmackXaXhoeX]

dude ur dumb as fuck he dident get scratched by chickens u little wona be buckethead listener his name is brian correll and he wares a mask because he dosent want to walk down the street being annoyed by fans 24/7 i dont blame him

[MusicIsFunn]

Like I said before what the fuck makes you think its because of stage fright or be mobbed by fans your just guessing it could be true but theres no evidence thats true what I said is the closest thing to the truth you can find its not like I just made that shit up its on bucketheads official site go do some research before you make up up some bs

[spartan934]

hes a wannabe buckethead listener? he went on the site and read the story.you cant even spell his name right its brian carrol

[stephenshaggy]

supper cool song and even more funny, and just flat out amazing.

[xChainsaw]

That riff he starts at 1:39

Its so fun to play. Seriously, Try it.

[fishperson65]

i wonder how many buildins would explode on the solo

[iBustamove]

+1 LOLOLOL

[drydyboy]

Who cares about his number of views on youtube?

If someone said ''damn me!!''... sry but your not a buckethead fan...

A real buckethead's fan listen and said to other person who make noise ''Shut up and listen!''

[testbug136]

ther be a god,

and he has a bucket on his head...

[l02020202l]

buckethead wears a mask because hes a god and if someone sees his face they disintegrate cuz he is divine

[lolerz222]

Lmao l02020 +1 for you! great song

[sweffe96]

^_^I lulz'd

[ZogSoldier]

buckethead = god

[boombastic9789]

i think he just wears tht bucket and mask just for the fun of it or he is an alien hiding his true face but showing tht he is very good at guitar lol

[frumpyd519]

i dont think buckethead gives a shit about how many views youtube has of him. he only cares that you like his music. and i do...

[corban10101]

apparently he got his face scratchd off by chickens, he used to talk to dead bodies in the cemetary, and he only talks to people through a hand puppet......

but hes still my idol rofl

[QuietBreaker]

yeah, bucketheads stuff is the greatest I´ve ever heard!

who cares about the views, I just love it.

bad for those who don´t know him :D

[Robotgangsta]

It's amazing how good Buckethead is. Yet all these Youtube videos have hardly any views. Most of them don't get over 10,000, and the only exception would be Jordan because of Guitar Hero. He deserves so much more. :D

[Naes201GR]

i agree so much dude.

[napoliondynamite]

i comment on this ideo alot :P one of my fav buck songs!! see ya again in two months lol

[kouriichi]

rofls

[Xaederaz]

BEST part of the song!

[napoliondynamite]

what the hell is a hemi demi semi quaver??????

[laili67]

You mean a Hemi Semi Demi Quaver? A 64th note.

[laili67]

Sorry: It is a Hemi Demi Semi Quaver..

[ScreamingOblivion]

Amazing video! I love the chicken comment and the screen with them. They look like they're marching. XD

[TessuhBetch]

Bill Moseley is spectacular. Him and Buckethead make a good team. w00t Cornbugs!

[napoliondynamite]

heh heh heh heeeeeeh wipe out.
