Stop whatever you're doing! KYUSS is back together under the name KYUSS LIVES!, well Kyuss minus Josh Homme, and is going to go on tour in the US for the first time in 15 years! Following the rousing success of their European tour, the band has announced two dates in the United States this fall.
KYUSS Lives!
September 23- New York, NY Terminal 5 (Tickets)
October 8- Pomona, CA The Fox Theater (Tickets)
More US dates are expected in the coming weeks. Doom Metal titans The Sword will have the honor of opening the show before the Stoner Rock legends take to the stage. KYUSS made their name back in the 1990's, hammering out classic albums like Blues for the Red Sun which carved out a style teeming with heavy riffs and catchy grooves. Songs like Green Machine and Thumb are real gems of their genre, and considering I was…you know, in grade school when this stuff came out, I'm pretty excited to finally get a chance to see these songs live!
For a quick teaser, check out the trailer to their European tour earlier this year:
