What, you want more than that? OK. Kyuss were a highly influential American stoner rock band from Palm Desert, California. They were the pioneers of their genre (stoner metal/rock), which is vaguely a subgenre of DoomMetal but often has very little to do with doom. Its characteristics include heavily detuned guitars, low-end-heavy sound (Josh Homme would plug his guitar into a bass amp for this very reason), massive Music/BlackSabbath influence, hallucinogenic themes and an overall insanely deep and heavy sound.

** Subverted with "Demon Cleaner," where the lyrics seem to mean nothing, but it's actually about brushing your teeth. [[SincerityMode No really,]] look:
--> "Homme: I have a tooth obsession. I've had everything done to my teeth that you could have done. I used to dream about teeth all the time-I've had nightmares about them since I was a kid, like horrible night terrors. I even went the doctor about it, and that's why I hate going to sleep even to this day. I still always have nightmares. So I'd have this recurring dream where I'm getting my teeth pulled out and then I'd flash forward and I'd be in a giant mouth with these teeth bleeding everywhere. And I'd be cleaning these giant teeth while the blood was coming down and I'd be drowning in a sea of toothbrush foam and blood. So "Demon Cleaner" was this metaphor for, you know, you gotta keep yourself clean, you gotta keep yourself tight."
