@@thomasfowler8212 I got lucky I think. I discovered them about 1 week before I had to drive from the panhandle of Florida to LA. I basically played Kyuss on a loop from Phoenix westward.

"Spaceship Landing" is peak Kyuss for me, I really like Josh's honesty and true insight into the band's evolution and dissolution. Really interesting...
Same here. Of all the great songs, Spaceship Landing is beyond words. It also includes the best ever Josh Homme solo in the end...What an amazing track!
I can confirm. I saw QOTSA with NIN in Wellington New Zealand and he left his guitar hanging off the mic stand howling feedback until the crowd went nuts for the encore, and after the encore he hurled the guitar right over the top of the drum kit and it landed at the back of the stage. It was a great show. These guys are the real deal, I don't think they make musicians like him anymore.
@LAZERBEAM Yeah, I struggle to find anything that isn't the Wish version of something famous, or so avant garde that it's unlistenable, and I say that as someone who likes Sunn O)))
@LAZERBEAM Sleep Token is doing something a bit different though. I know they blew up, so not underground, but it's certainly an unexpected sound, that I kind of enjoyed. It's like all the pop rock bands of the last few years, if they actually were good, and wrote creative songs, took risks and added a few flashes of prog metal to spice it up. It's like they took the bland formulaic pop rock and subverted it, kind of the reverse if what the industry does.

Really wild watching this. Grew up with this music in the mid-late 90s, knew all the personalities. Josh seems like he's on the verge of tears for this entire interview.
Absolutely, because he's talking about his middle school and high school best friends. They'd all love to be playing with him now, but he outgrew playing with them very early in his musical journey.
No shit man... I'm almost on the verge of tears watching it. My memories from then, being triggered by his retelling along with the shared experience of seeing Josh live a handful of times with my bandmates is surreal. I'll be 50 in a couple months... this must be part of getting old:(
all kyuss members are alive, im still waiting for Homme back to guitar and Garcia back to mic together... by the way, Garcia is on the fire with Band of gold album, totally ready
@@TonyRedgrave1501 Josh has finally said he is willing to do it in a recent interview. But, yeah, I still don't see Brant jumping on that boat after what happened. I believe Garcia would, but Bjork not so much. Anyway, perhaps Fredo can take the drumsticks.
@@r.weidmann7931 I read in another interview that Brant reached out to Homme after Nick showed the interview to Brant, but Homme never got back to him on it.
I remember watching QOTSA in Manchester and after the gig, Josh was straightaway signing autographs outside of the tour bus. After this he went into a pub next door and someone swung a punch at him as he stepped inside. He came straight out after and said that someone had tried to swing at him. True story.
Josh is a very peculiar figure. He looks like he is a cousin of Elvis Presley, but in blond, and then the way he speaks, it's an amalgamation of nostalgia, sadness, and a lot of suppressed stress. It's like he is giving testimony to the police about a murder or something lol.
@@epictetus9221 I couldn't even imagine having the obligation of doing interviews and pretending to sit there and give a very genuine answer just to make sure you don't come off as "unappealing" or as someone a fan wouldn't want to have a drink with.
Or overrated. Welcome to Sky Valley, pretty damn fucking good and One Inch Man from the follow up album and the serial killer song I forget the name of and that's pretty much it as far as Kyuss go. They recorded a lot of tuneless experimental stuff and mediocre NWOBHM that's that's just not very good but because they produced it with the bass turned right up people thought it was good.
@@workhorse7134lmao... Says the guy who's new music play list is full of bands that are mediocre at best, a lot of them being kyuss rip off bands basically. Old school, new school, this mother fuckers too cool for school..
Ive met chatted with Nick Oliveri a few times after his shows, hes incredibly approachable and doesn't get anywhere near the credit and popularity he deserves.
Man, how this came to light after all these years and still very relevant even more than those days, they took very different ways since the same start
If you dont understand why someone ends a sentence with y'know, its coz they assume you get it and the rest of the sentence is unnecessary. If you dont get it you never will...y'know
I saw Garcia live here in Australia, with just an acoustic guitarist (maybe Bruno from Kyuss lives) and his singing alone brought major Kyuss feels for me. Josh/Garcia/Reeder and Fredo now would be an absolute beast of a band.
He's had an amazing 8 album run (I include TCV because it def feels more like a QoTSA side project than a FF/LZ project). He was 13ish when it all started and was very wrapped up in that scene so everything onwards (musically and off stage) makes A LOT of sense. He's a favourite for sure.
It's a beautiful thing that...Ween gave him the keys to the door...do whatever feels good...I love Ween...I'd always hoped they'd do an album together called God, Queens, Satan...
I am the generation that came after the "baby boomer". Baby boomers were my parents.I was born in '72. I listen to a lot of Sabbath, Zeppelin, the groundhogs, later on I got into maiden and priest and stuff like that.but the one thing I can say is that Scott Reeder is the Geezer Butler of my generation. Is playing is very much like Geezer's.and when the albums were mixed his face playing was thrown right up front with a loud volume in the mix which was unconventional at the time but really Nate everybody aware it was listening to those guys of what a talent Scott was (still is for that matter).the man takes a right-handed base and flipped it around without even fixing the strings. He's got to think in reverse when he plays. Sometimes I watch him play live in old clips and I'm just gobsmacked. I consider myself very lucky to have seen them play before Kyuss broke up.
Yes sir. Scott is jist one of those dudes that was born at the wrong decade. Somehow he managed to drink from the essential fountain of rock. He found the fountain. You can see it on his playing.
Im really into their solo projects but I couldn't say it any better than John. Why would you do that? Kyuss was out of this world. It is bigger than whatever was between the members. I don't need an other album but I would love to see them live.
Just do a reunion with Kyuss in 2024 and get on with it. World tour and come to the UK lol... I say 2024 as I believe he is getting qotsa back together this year for new album? If not do Kyuss this year!
Damn, I always wanted to hear about Josh's view of Kyuss, considering that it was very formative band. This is incredibly insightful and popped out of nowhere. But it certainly seems that Josh seems to inhered some reservations regarding the band and its dynamic. It almost appears sad and sorrowful.
"Ya know" - I don't know him personally, obviously. But I have seen other of his interviews where he didn't say that so much. His repeated use of the phrase tells me that he is really not comfortable about talking this stuff, and his past with his friends/bandmates. Ya know?
I believe josh when he says that he never listened to Black Sabbath when growing up. I just think he tuned down and played things slow and heavy and groovy in order to distinguish himself from other punk bands in his scene he came from. Not to mention that Bands like Across the River took influence from them, which in turn influenced Josh Homme. Not to mention Nick Oliveri was into Black Sabbath.
I don't think that's impossible. I play in a cover band and a lot of times bandmates suggest songs and I kind of listen to that song and do my own thing with it, but don't really listen to that band.
Wow, super cool interview with the creative force behind Kyuss, Josh Homme, and since this was only a snippet of the Lo Sound Desert rock documentary, where can one purchase or view the entire Lo Wojnd Desert interview? I'd love to see it.
It's a bit misleading to call him the creative force behind Kyuss. Brant signed a lot of songs, and those were by no means the less known ones: Thumb, Green Machine, Gardenia, Whitewater etc.
If some interviewer ALWAYS asked me about Black Sabbath while interviewing me about my band (Every. Single. TIME), I would start to be a snarky asshole and just pretend I don't know shit about them. Makes sense. Pretty funny IMO.
They are the modern extension of Sabbath to me, literally took the baton, their sprawling heaviness, like no other band could or can. That gorgeous low end when it comes in, is like the sky.
I loved the subject you asked about. But I feel you could have asked him about the albums, mainly the last three, because at the end of the day, songs and albums, are his and kyuss' ultimate legacy. And not to mention the colossal influence it had and has still to this day to countless bands all over the world. BFTRS and WTSV are two of the greatest heavy albums of all time, IMO. Thanks for the video though !!
Fortunately I was able to see Kyuss lives a few years back before Josh sued them over the name. Great show from one of my favorite bands. Apparently he was ok with them getting together and playing the songs...he just had a problem with the name. Usually after it goes there (law suit) the original members will never get together and play again. ✌️
Not entirely true about Kyuss not getting back together. I read in an interview that Brant reached out to Josh recently about playing together again but Josh never got back to him (probably because of the legal issues involving his family) so us fans will have to wait until then.
“Do well, but don’t do too well.” See, that frustrates me. A band busts their ass to write incredible songs and make impressions on people. And then there are people who say their success is a bad thing. I don’t agree with it. Kyuss is one of the best bands I ever heard!
I feel like its intentional. That's totally something he would do. Like make a bet how many times he could say it in an interview LMAO. Meow watch it with that in mind lol.
I loved kyuss and qosa.....but I heard back in the day Homme was a greedy asshole and that's why they broke up.....just saying. I was pissed when kyuss broke up lol.
the other 3 original members reformed and toured as Kyuss Lives. They eventually had to change the name to Vista Chino. Homme wasn't involved and apparently legally forced the band to abandon anything with the word Kyuss in it. im pretty sure he owns the rights to the Kyuss catalog. I would love to see someone ask him about that.
@@chrisdee7511 He was fine with them touring as Kyuss Lives but didn't want them recording new material under the Kyuss name. I can see both sides of this issue but I'm glad he stopped them - that Vista Chino album would have been a big brown skid mark on the Kyuss legacy
@the 48thRonin well if im a milionare and dont play kyuss songs or do anything with the name i would let them use it for the reason of them making some extra money becouse i doubt they are financialy secured like homme is
I love QOTSA one of my favorite bands, but man......I can't count the number of times I've listened to Blues for The Red Sun and Sky Valley. It really is just on my wave length.

I loved the subject you asked about. But I feel you could have asked him about the albums, mainly the last three, because at the end of the day, songs and albums, are his and kyuss' ultimate legacy. And not to mention the colossal influence it had and has still to this day to countless bands all over the world. BFTRS and WTSV are two of the greatest heavy albums of all time, IMO. Thanks for the video though !!
Part of this interview is used in the Truckfighters documentary
That clip actually made me a fan of Truckfighters. Turns out Josh didn't even know who they were.
Should’ve asked him if he thinks Gary Arce is sexy.
You are too far ahead. This important question will be answered in the full interview.
@@steineck thank you for sharing this. Awesome documentary.
He would have said "you know"
@@steineck are we gonna expecting the full one?
Александр Пешков He said it’s coming “soon-ish”
Kyuss are literally the heaviest band ever formed imo 👍
One of them for sure. Some of the "Stoner" bands and desert bands are on par as well.
So enlighten us
Funny how he says he never heard of Black Sabbath while he was in Kyuss, because Kyuss even have a Sabbath cover (Into the Void)...
He's talking about his personal life story & saying "you know" every sentance, no i dont know its your life you know.
awesome cocaine sunglasses. i love QOTSA
LOL
Who the hell put the lapel mic there!
craig kilborne sure knows a lot about kyuss
Momma it's snow season
This is not Josh Homme ya know . This is awkward sounding Johny Bravo 😉
LOL momma
a VERY intelligent version of johnny bravo...
Fortunately I was able to see Kyuss lives a few years back before Josh sued them over the name. Great show from one of my favorite bands. Apparently he was ok with them getting together and playing the songs...he just had a problem with the name. Usually after it goes there (law suit) the original members will never get together and play again. ✌️
Not entirely true about Kyuss not getting back together. I read in an interview that Brant reached out to Josh recently about playing together again but Josh never got back to him (probably because of the legal issues involving his family) so us fans will have to wait until then.
You never saw Kyuss, you sIobbering mark clown. Kyuss ended in 1995, twurp 🤤
When I fisrt heard Kyuss - Space Cadet. I felt like I was on a different planet.
“Do well, but don’t do too well.” See, that frustrates me. A band busts their ass to write incredible songs and make impressions on people. And then there are people who say their success is a bad thing. I don’t agree with it. Kyuss is one of the best bands I ever heard!
I feel like its intentional. That's totally something he would do. Like make a bet how many times he could say it in an interview LMAO.
Meow watch it with that in mind lol.
‘We rehearsed 6 seven days a week for 6 seven hours a day’
I don't know
I loved kyuss and qosa.....but I heard back in the day Homme was a greedy asshole and that's why they broke up.....just saying. I was pissed when kyuss broke up lol.
the other 3 original members reformed and toured as Kyuss Lives. They eventually had to change the name to Vista Chino. Homme wasn't involved and apparently legally forced the band to abandon anything with the word Kyuss in it. im pretty sure he owns the rights to the Kyuss catalog. I would love to see someone ask him about that.
I get the impression he's still that way behind the scenes
@@chrisdee7511 And thanks to their personal integrity, which Homme lacks, they are doing very well for themselves to this day!
@@chrisdee7511 He was fine with them touring as Kyuss Lives but didn't want them recording new material under the Kyuss name. I can see both sides of this issue but I'm glad he stopped them - that Vista Chino album would have been a big brown skid mark on the Kyuss legacy
@the 48thRonin well if im a milionare and dont play kyuss songs or do anything with the name i would let them use it for the reason of them making some extra money becouse i doubt they are financialy secured like homme is
And uh... uhmmm.... y’know?
I know
Has anyone counted how many times Josh says "you know" in the clip? 🤣
The inconsistencies of the volume in the coke bottle
It's okay. You can trust Josh Homme with the secrets of the universe... y'know.
