This one is missing the "Intro," "We Are One," "Three Fingers," "The Hand" and a short "Interlude." It does feature the track "Shen Chi" which was only featured as a bonus track on later editions of ENTER THE CHICKEN. This one doesn't feature twelve tracks like the original ENTER THE CHICKEN but rather only seven. The original is one of my favorite older BUCKETHEAD releases and the fact he teamed up with so much talent was a major plus, something sorely lacking in the PIKE series. Having said that even though i wasn't keen on listening to this, i have to admit that these tracks do indeed make decent instrumentals even if not as awesome as were with the myriad vocalists that appeared on the original ENTER THE CHICKEN. I've never been a fan and i almost always ignore such releases as they are nothing more than cash in on the diehards endeavors. Honestly i don't see the point in instrumental versions of albums that feature lyrics. Unlike the original album which was released on Serj Tankian's Serjical Strike label, this one is only available on BH's Bandcamp age as a lossless digital recording. ENTER THE CHICKEN INSTRUMENTALS has been released outside of the PIKE series and is sort of the companion album for the original ENTER THE CHICKEN album which was released all the way back in 2005. And for the 22nd release of BUCKETHEAD in the year 2022, the chicken lover throws another curve ball and revisits an old friend only in all instrumental form.
