Kaleidoscalp is the fifteenth studio album by avant-garde guitarist Buckethead. The album is notable for its use of circuit bent instruments and effects, creating an overall sound that is both bizarre and unique.

Released on John Zorn's Tzadik label, the album features Zorn as an executive producer. Although a predominantly studio-based release, a number of these songs have been performed live, with Buckethead often improvising and extending over a drum track.
