As you might be able to tell, I love Buckethead  This is a great album, especially since it's free and lossless. Thanks so much for uploading it. Just out of curiosity, where did you get this lossless? Do you have the disc? Anyways, thanks a bunch.

Here's a bump for the hell of it and for the new guys. I would have thought the megaupload link would be dead by now, but it is still there

Thanks for the link, although I already have this album on CD. I will say this much, you are doing a service to the people of this thread, this album is GREAT. It's a bit of a concept album with a rather weird storyline (very typical of bucketheads character), and I wasnt crazy about it at first, but when I read the liner notes to the album while listening along, it all made sense and grew on me like few albums have before it. Highly recommended download (I paid $70 for a japanese copy and it was worth every penny).

Mate $70 is an extremely good deal, you should be very happy. As for the liner notes, I think they may be included in that download but I'm not sure.
The album is quite unusual at first listen, although there are more than a few beautiful moments that stand out from the first spin. The best albums in my opinion are the ones that take a long time to appreciate (pf - 'the wall' took me about a year to 'get').
For first timers, I recommend tracks 4, 6, 9, 10 and 13. Let us know what you think, especially if you are new to Buckethead!

I loved it the first time I heard it even though I've never heard anything like it before. The download didn't have liner notes last spring.

Free, lossless music, from a brilliant band THANKS OP!
This is the first time I have ever heard anything from them. I went through the hole album and it is really good. Buckethead is refreshing to listen to
You might just have forced me to go down to the record store monday and buy some more of them.

Glad you like it Frederik! By the way, Buckethead is the name of the guitarist, not the band (I think in this case the band is called 'giant robot'). If you can't find anything at your local music shop (I'm pretty sure you won't find a thing as you live in Denmark), go to Travis Dickerson Recording Studios
For a first purchase I would recommend 'Thanatopsis - Axiology' or 'Population Override'. You can hear two free tracks from the albums (and others) here: TDRS STORE
After that I would try 'Peppers Ghost'. That should get you started.

I don't mean to thread-hijack here, but does anyone know how to play FLAC in iTunes?

Yeah man
Use flac.exe ( FLAC - Free Lossless Audio Codec ) to convert the files to wav, then import the wavs into itunes.
Then you convert to apple lossless in itunes and delete the wavs.

Thanks very much for this. A mate of mine is a huge Buckethead fan so will very much appreciate this.
