Pandemoniumfromamerica or also called Pandemonium From America is the sixth studio album by the actor Viggo Mortensen and the fourth collaboration with avant-garde guitarist Buckethead, released in 2003. The album is dedicated to Noam Chomsky. The album has been described thus:
Using William Blake, Jonathan Swift, and Rumi's prescient wordplay as its point of departure, Pandemoniumfromamerica is a sonic snapshot of 21st century disorientation and dissent.
Besides featuring Buckethead, the album also features Viggo's son Henry Mortensen, keyboardist Travis Dickerson, and the actors Elijah Wood, Billy Boyd, and Dominic Monaghan (Frodo, Pippin, and Merry respectively from Peter Jackson's The Lord of the Rings film trilogy). The label TDRS Music released the album and also posted several pictures on their web page from the recording sessions of this album in which they feature all the collaborators.
Tracks from the album are part of the compilation This, That, and The Other, released in 2004, also compiling the albums One Less Thing to Worry About from 1997, One Man's Meat from 1999, The Other Parade from 1999, and Please Tomorrow of 2004.
