'''''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 heavy metal guitar riffs and noodling on top of samples and drum machine loops. The album features no original vocal performances, but some voice samples are scattered through the album. The tracks are more akin to basic ideas that have the potential to be expanded upon at a later date rather than fully fledged songs. The album has also been described as a collection of incidental pieces reminiscent of the "[[Bucketheadland#Track listing|Slaughter Zone]]" section of the ''[[Bucketheadland]]'' album.

===Notes===
* "Kurtz Temple" and "Sleeper Agents" have the same exact drumbeat.
* "Covert" and "Death Card" have almost the same exact drumbeat, the only difference being that the one in the latter has a flanger effect. "The Worm Turns" and "Aluminum Clouds" share the same distinction.
* "Killing Mask" and "Stolen Identities" have almost the same exact drumbeat, the only difference being that the one in the latter has a heavy delay effect.
* "Jessy" includes samples from the 2000 movie ''[[Chopper (film)|Chopper]]''.
* 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]]''.
