I need some Kyuss, where do I start?

[NAD]

oh yeah and if you do want my NAD's Picks Kyuss Shitz, i'll sneak in a Meshuggah track or two LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLLOLO

 

[Chromatose]

listen to Nebula instead btw

 

[MadeInNewJersey]

wellllllll, any self respecting stoner collection really does need a Kyuss album. just like my black metal collection has one Darkthrone album. which i never listen to.

I actually sold my Kyuss records when I realized that they weren't half as good as the genre/style leaders. :Spin:

 

[MadeInNewJersey]

listen to Fu Manchu, then Nebula instead btw

FYP

 

[Chromatose]

as long as we're talking about Eddie Glass era, then you've got yourself a deal.

you forgot the [/J.] on that post.

you know, i think that Slo Burn EP is probably the best stoner album i've heard. short, sweet, and to the point. they should've done more.

But of course, though "California Crossing" is a total guilty pleasure of mine.

 

[Birkenau]

...And The Circus Leaves Town is their best, anyone who says otherwise is wrong.

Welcome to Sky Valley is also pretty good, Blues for the Red Sun I don't like so much.

 

[MadeInNewJersey]

hah, wrong again loser!

 

[Birkenau]

But you like Fu Manchu...

 

[MadeInNewJersey]

Right, and they fucking rock.

 

[Birkenau]

I remember them sucking unless I've got them mixed up with Electric Wizard.

 

[MadeInNewJersey]

Well, one sounds nothing like the other, so I can't help you out.

 

[En Vind Av Sorg]

Okay, so does Fu Manchu sound like Kyuss then? I've honestly never heard anything by them.

What?

 

[MadeInNewJersey]

Not really, no.

Fu Manchu is BIG riffs, total late '70s boogie headbanging skating vibe. If someone reminds me, I'll rip a couple tracks tomorrow and post 'em.

 

[MadeInNewJersey]

Put it this way, they went out of their way to locate and find these specific Marshall amps from the '70s or something, b/c it gave them the "loud fuzz" sound they wanted.

They fucken rule.

dude like, every musician does this at some point in time, we're all eventually bitten by the vintage bug. either way, i need to check them out. you've been praising them for ages.

concerning Blues for the Red Sun, i can totally understand why a Kyuss fan wouldn't dig it. it's a great collection of songs with a lousy flow between them. Sky Valley and Circus are like one lengthy song all glued together. and shit.

KYUSS 'Reunion': Audio, Video Footage Posted Online - Jan. 17, 2006

Audio and video footage taken at the Dec. 21, 2005 QUEENS OF THE STONE AGE gig at the Wiltern LG in Los Angeles, where John Garcia, singer of QOTSA frontman Josh Homme's previous troupe KYUSS, joined QUEENS on stage for three songs from their influential hard-rock band's catalog, has been posted online at this location.

"Now I want to play you something really old," Homme announced after returning to the stage following the main-set closer, "A Song for the Dead", according to MTV.com.

With guitarist Troy Van Leeuwen, bassist Alain Johannes, keyboardist Natasha Shneider and drummer Joey Castillo doing their best to keep up, Homme and Garcia ripped into "Thumb", off their 1992 desert-rock masterpiece "Blues for the Red Sun"; "Hurricane", from their '95 swan song "And the Circus Leaves Town"; and the slow-jam fan favorite "Supa Scoopa and Mighty Scoop". Homme was all smiles as he dug into the forgotten low-end riffs — most of which he wrote in his teens — and the acerbic Garcia was on his best behavior, turning his back to the crowd at junctures where he'd usually give them the finger.
