Buckethead is the stage name of '''Brian Carroll''', an avant-garde s. Buckethead was a member of Guns N' Roses from 2000 to 2004 . Buckethead has also recorded under the name ''Death Cube K'' (an Anagram of "Buckethead" he created to circumvent legal complications with Sony Records). William Gibson later borrowed "Death Cube K" as the name of a bar in '' Idoru ''; quoting Gibson in an interview for Addicted To Noise : "Death Cube K is actually the title of an album. I'm sorry I can't remember the name of the group but theme bar in Tokyo ." In an interview with '' Revolver '', Ozzy Osbourne stated that he had offered to have Buckethead play guitar in his band at Ozzfest . Ozzy quickly changed his mind after meeting with him when Buckethead refused to go on stage without a disguise: "I tried out that Buckethead guy. I met with him and asked him to work with me but only if he got rid of the fucking bucket. So I came back a bit later and he's wearing this green fucking Martian's-hat thing! I said, 'Look, just be yourself'. He told me his name was Brian, so I said that's what I'd call him. He says, 'No one calls me Brian except my mother'. So I said, 'Pretend I'm your mum then!'. I haven't even got out of the room and I'm already playing fucking mind games with the guy. What happens if one day he's gone and there's a note saying, 'I've been beamed up'? Don't get me wrong, he's a great player. He plays like a motherfucker!" In 2005, Buckethead released an album as Buckethead & Friends called '' Enter The Chicken ''. Released by Serj Tankian's label Serjical Strike , the album features Maximum Bob , Death By Stereo singer Efrem Shulz , Tankian himself, and others. The album is marked by its leaning towards more traditional song structure, while still featuring Buckethead's guitar skills. Buckethead also took lessons at Style's music in Claremont, California. He also gave lessons there and performed shows with local band Drown the Sun in the parking lot.
