I just found out that Buckethead has released something like 90 albums this year. The dude is absolutely a machine.
Edit: Looks like it’s actually 99. The crazy bastard released 9 albums in the time it took me to write my comment!
WTF? Really? I never listened to him much, but I know from what I’ve heard he’s beyond amazing.
Edit: according to Wikipedia you’re missing a few hundred 😳
Buckethead’s discography currently includes 435 studio albums (388 of which are in the Pike series), one live album, four special releases, five demo tapes, three solo DVD video releases, two DVD video releases with Cornbugs, three music videos, three solo videography releases, and 16 videography releases with other artists.
Edit 2: his origin story is hilarious, dude definitely has a screw loose 😂
I was eating it (KFC chicken), and I put the mask on (that he had just bought after watching Halloween 4) 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.
The 99 I mentioned were just FROM THIS YEAR! Dude is absolutely insane!
Oh damn haha
Holy shit. Seriously???
He’s phenomenal
My mind boggles. Also, I’m curious to have a listen. 👀
Also, 99 😱
‘Elephant man’s alarm clock’ is my favorite buckethead album
I’m going to give it a listen
And then they disappear just as fast & decades later I still listen to the same albums in my car.
Check out Eternal Champion’s latest release. It’s like Retro power metal. Incredibly well done.
For Black Metal fans, check out Toronto’s Thantifaxath. My personal fav release is Sacred White Noise.
Good shit. Both bands have a great catalog.
Champion is up my alley. I’ll have to give both of them a serious listen.
If you like Eternal Champion, check out…
- Riot City
- Gatekeeper
- Visigoth
- Megaton Sword
I love gatekeeper.
My recommendations:
Witchcraft
Flight
Haunt (sometimes called haunt the nation)
Night demon
Caludron
I gotta check out Eternal Champion…after I’m finished listening to Santana and smoking my Cuban cigar down in Miami 😊
I didn’t use Spotify until recently and it has opened me up to so many bands that I would have never found on my own. I never really listened to the radio much, and then had Tidal for a few years because of their ability to stream FLAC files and I had just bought mid-high end headphones. The app sucked though and the music selection is like a 10th of what is available on Spotify.
Look at gnoosic.com so many obscure bands. It’s an AI that recommends shit.
Directed me to a guy with 26 listeners once and it was solid.
Thanks for this. I’ve found at least 3 bands I had never heard of before that are exactly what I like.
Right? It’s powerful. Shitty look to the website, but it fucking claps when it comes to recommended music
Awesome thanks!
Sleep Token.
Not a single song I haven’t enjoyed. All I need now are their vinyls and a turntable.
Worship!
If throw out The Necromancers, though not sure if their obscure.
Aether Realm is one of the best current melodic death metal bands and no one can convince me otherwise.
I’m a big fan of The Score, but they aren’t a metal band
The Bled for me
So, what bands are you talking about? Curious…
This is beyond obscure, this is 2000s turkish metal that tried to go for 80s garage metal
Is good, I’ll try it as work music.
Ni!
Thanks, will give it a listen
A song on YT: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ixf3yxZVmHc
Don’t see more of their stuff on YT.
The above album is on youtube music, too.
This Seattle band is crazy good

I’ve really been enjoying Faux Fiction. I haven’t disliked a single one of their songs. They are more indie/rock than metal, but still goes hard.
