'''''Funnel Weaver''''' is the seventh studio album by [[Buckethead]]. The album is very different from his previous works in that it is made up by 49 very short tracks, primarily consisting of samples and drum machine loops with heavy metal guitar riffs and noodling laid on top. The album features no original vocal performances of any kind, but some voice samples are scattered through the album. ''Funnel Weaver'' has been described as "a collection of intro tracks," reminiscent of the [[Bucketheadland#Track listing|Slaughter Zone]] section of ''[[Bucketheadland]]''.

Some song titles refer to movies such as ''[[The Hills Have Eyes (1977 film)|The Hills Have Eyes]]'' and ''[[The Other Side of Midnight (film)|The Other Side of Midnight]]''. "Jessy" includes a sample from the 2000 movie ''[[Chopper (film)|Chopper]]''.

"I consider Funnel Weaver to depict a transmission between earth and some strange alien race, a communication bridge, a story.
