His acoustic album Acoustic Shards is pretty awesome.  I've only ever listened to Pepper's Ghost which I loved.  I really have to listen to a couple more.

Albino Slug is pretty much the answer to everything.
Orion....that's the one with a bunch of power chords and boringly harsh vocals, isn't it?

Population Override has to be my favorite Buckethead album I own so far. He has so many albums that fit so many moods its cool.

Soothsayer is so overrated it's not even funny. In fact, I don't know why something being overrated to any degree would be funny at all. I never got the "X is so Y it's not even funny" saying. So why did I use it? I have no clue.

It's like saying: X is so Y that it is ridiculous and lol-worthy. But when X is just SO Y, then it passed the point of being funny and it is jsut plain wrong and, well, not even funny.

On-topic: Buckethead is cool stuff so far, not sure which album to buy just yet though.

Pepper's Ghost or Population Override.

You might want to ask Lateralus88 though, since he's the resident Buckethead expert.

It really depends on what you are looking for, honestly.

If you want a bit more straight forward, guitar solo wizardy filled with some really groovy moments - Population Override. It's like 10 long guitar solos/jam sessions. It's fantastic.
If you want something a bit more...mind-fuck oriented - Bucketheadland 2, Inbred Mountain or Kaleidoscalp
If you want something a tad electronic/beat oriented - Monsters and Robots (well this fits under the next category as well), Bermuda Triangle or Funnel Weaver
If you want some just really cool sounding guitar music with lots of really heavy moments - Albino Slug, The Elephant Man's Alarm Clock, Decoding the Tomb of the Banshee Bot, Island of Lost Minds or Crime Slunk Scene.
If you want something really, really chill and easy to relax to - Colma or Electric Tears.  :hat :hat :hat :hat :hat
If you want something like you've never heard - Spinal Clock. It's banjo music. I don't even know if I like this album or not.
And if you want something that samples a lot of Buckethead's different styles - Giant Robot.

Don't even get me started with his side projects like The Deli Creeps or Praxis. And pay no attention to Enter the Chicken. It's really not that good of an album. Aside from 3 songs, its' generally just meh for Buckethead.

Well you can't go wrong with any of his albums. I'd say for your case, try Giant Robot and Bermuda Triangle.

I even have #770 of the special edition of Cyborg Slunks, cover drawn and signed by Buck himself.  :hat

What are some good albums to check out? He has 29 of them, damn...

Next, go for Albino Slug. Even if Giant Robot is too weird for you, Albino Slug is much more mature and less focused on wackiness (Not that wackiness is bad).
