63Posting this to raise awareness of this unique Bootsy Collins/ Buckethead collaboration, and also to point out they are working on another album together!
Science Faxtion is a collab group of Bootsie Collins and Buckethead, along with a lot of other great musicians. It's a sci fi concept album, here is a description from Bootsy:
"We're looking at it like, 'What would happen if we wound up a situation down the line as we evolve, that our technology takes over and we are the ones that they're looking at as 'the scum of the earth. It's kind of like Planet of the Apes, what would they be like?, What would that feel like?. We're just trying to warn the world that that's comin', and we're having fun with that."
