Kyuss is a stoner legend, formed in Palm Desert, California in the late 1980s. After releasing an EP under the name Sons of Kyuss in 1990, the band shortened its name to Kyuss. Former members was John Garcia, Josh Homme, Nick Oliveri, Chris Cockrell and Brant Bjork. Kyuss split up in 1995, and since then, members of Kyuss have gone on to form or play in several notable bands including Queens of the Stone Age, Fu Manchu, Dwarves, Brant Bjork, Eagles of Death Metal, Mondo Generator, Hermano, Unida, Slo Burn and Them Crooked Vultures.
This guys are legends in stoner genre now. In November 2010, Kyuss announced a reunion as Kyuss Lives!, who has been embarking on a world tour since March 2011 and plans to release a new album in 2012. Guitarist Bruno Fevery is filling in for Homme, who has always discouraged talk of a reunion. In March 2012, it was revealed that Josh Homme, with backing from bassist Scott Reeder, had filed a federal lawsuit against John Garcia and Brant Bjork alleging "trademark infringement and consumer fraud" over the use of the Kyuss name (wtf Homme?). Nick Oliveri left Kyuss later that month.
