This is yet another all instrumental affair and features 5 tracks that simply are titled "Q1," "Q2," "Q3," "Q4" and "Q5." I have another Q and that would be "WTF?" PIKE 300 - QUARRY comes just in time for Christmas but given that it's digitally released only, don't expect it wrapped and put under the tree. This one is somewhat of an achievement since PIKE 300 represents a milestone in this egg dropping from coop! Posted Sunday, Decem| Review this album | Report (Review #2653585)Īnd here we are! Another lovely day at BUCKETHEADLAND and yet another PIKE dropped by the chicken lover named BUCKETHEAD. This one is better than recent PIKEs but nothing really new or outstanding either. Like most of these single track PIKEs this one features cyclical loops and repetitive motifs and doesn't really need to be as long as it is however if you are listening to this as background music while surfing the web or some other activity it's perfectly adequate. Luckily this isn't one of those lullaby PIKEs though and there are enough dynamic shifts to keep the old attention span firing on all pistons. This is a rather dreamy PIKE with the emphasis much more on the ambient atmospheric effects rather than the guitar playing. There is a lot of attention paid to the production these days and while it's not always essential on THE CHARIOT OF SATURN it really does make a difference. The basically melodic development is consistent and the track sort of oozes as it unfolds with even the rock aspects barely catching fire. Overall this one track offering hovers around in an echoey guitar ambient mode. Not unlike umpteen similar sounding PIKEs this one pretty much sticks to the chicken lover playbook that now has been established without any significant deviation. This one features one long track called THE CHARIOT OF SATURN which shape shifts through mellow clean guitar passages to mid-tempo rock. It still remains a mystery as to what happened to Pikes #s 285, 286, 289, 290 and 295 since they're missing from the queue. Hot on the heels of "Pike 300 - Quarry," comes PIKE 301 - THE CHARIOT OF SATURN officially hatched on 18 December 2021.
