Overview From The Band's Site:
There
has been void in rock n’ roll that hasn’t been filled in almost 16
years. Fear not music fans, for you will be deprived of that “Kyuss
Sound" no longer. John, Nick, and Brant are back, and along with Bruno
Fevery on guitar, are hitting North and South America on tour AND plan
to hit the studio to record the first new material in over a decade.
Hopefully you have prepared ladies and gentlemen, KYUSS LIVES!
Sure, in the intervening years, we've had Queens of the Stone Age,
with Josh Homme on lead guitar and vocals. He's the one hold out who
would not return to resurrect Kyuss. Nick Oliveri also played with
Queens for a number of years, 1998-2004, but he's back touring with
Kyuss Lives! and the energy and synergy is undeniable.
With 3/4 of the original line up back on board, a sizable tour, and rumors of new material, it looks like the boys are back.
Seen on the scene: This righteous little head banger can forever count Kyuss Lives! at The Vic in Chicago as his first show. At the ripe old age of 2nd grade, he knew many of the lyrics and was rockin' out!
Glad to see Oliveri back with a bass in his hands instead of a rifle. This past summer he had an unfortunate adventure with a S.W.A.T. team that resulted in a felony domestic violence arrest. Hopefully his days of disrespecting girlfriends are in the past.
Kyuss
always lived on in our ipods, on shuffle play. But I'd almost
forgotten just how good so much of their music is. This show took me
back. For a few days after, it was all and only Slacker Radio's Kyuss
station, till my kids finally staged a mini revolt. They don't have
any new material yet, but if you've got a fan on your holiday list, they
do have some sweet desert themed Kyuss Lives! merch. It will be
interesting to see what this year brings, and if they can pull it off
without Homme, and truly rise from the ashes with new material.
