His signal chain went: Guitar --> Crybaby wah (dunno which model) --> Dunlop Rotovibe --> Boss delay (I think it's a DD-3) --> Boss GE-7 Equalizer --> Amp, with a footswitch for the amp's distortion. In this song he's using the Rotovibe in Vibrato mode for the deep, pulsating guitar parts, and he's messing around with the delay's knobs for the freakout in the middle of the song.
@MBloke Thanks man! I kinda figured most of this out myself spending some time searching the internet. Bought myself an aqua puss delay, but I think the Boss is better. Anyway, I don't think I can spend much more money on this ;)
@MsCSimmonds Dude, those Nordic countries are doing great... check out Graveyard as well, the name may seem cheesy, but they produce a very exquisite type of stoner.
This should be the soundtrack to the end of the world so at least we could jam-out before being vaporized by violet-hot gases coming from a asteroid that's moving at well over 16,000 MPH..and crashing into the Earth destroying nature and eradicating every living thing on Earth
This song must have been AMAZNG for them to play when they were stoned. Imagine it, its a genius idea, like just how the riff just lurks out into space then crashes down on the earth at like a million miles an hour then the whole earth is just dust in space. WOW
This was after Brant left, and Scott & Josh really connected. Brant orchestrated the show when they played live. Everyone followed his lead & played at his pace.
I think the best way to describe Kyuss is Bad Ass... So heavy, and so damn groovy. They taught me to listen without distraction and took my own writing in a whole different direction. No one rocked like them.
I do agree on that, but nowadays he seems to be to be doing no to so good. I mean I don't want him to sound like Kyuss again, but the first three QOTSA albums are so good, what happened?
i think era sounds forced, i really dislike it. especially misfit love, josh's vocals are irritating. skin on skin off of lullabies was the first truly shit queens song. just ugly.
if you dislike it that's your problem. misfit love is genius, the whole album works well. new one is going to be even further away from kyuss so don't bother buying it. god bless thee.
further from kyuss? that's fine by me, i prefer queens to kyuss anyway. misfit love genius? no. better living through chemistry or lost art of keeping a secret? maybe that's genius
Man I love this video! I've heard that Josh allways uses his neck pickup (could be wrong though) but when you look at his neck pickup you can notice the part at the lower strings has been adjusted so far away from the strings that you cannot have that much presence of the lower strings, could it?
Its probably so the lower strings wouldn't be overpowering, he plays open C through a bass amp and they're probably heavier gauge strings, also probably contributes to that droning fuzz sound too.
I know, my sister listens to crap music and always complains when all she can find is live videos of songs on YouTube. Maybe if she listened to good stuff it wouldn't be like that.
so you gentlemen smoke marijuana cigarettes? i prefer to have a small brandy myself and watch house. my maid rossanna smokes the green goblin of wobblin from time to time. crazy old bat.
check out how young josh is-- he looks about 20 years old---i was dropping acid and smokin kind bud to these guys back in the day--fond memories--stoner rock--my youth-- i miss those days--now that im awake i think ill bake--thanks for the post
i was in london at Hermano gig and gave my kyuss tshirt to sign to john garcia and he wrote there kyuss lives SMOKE ! when i hear this song i know what he ment...
trippiest shit ever!..i kno there are a lot of other great legends or musicians who created more trippier shits..but this is one just up there with them..KYUSS!!
hawkwind hacks? what. i would lay everything i own down on a bet the hawkwind was a staple in kyuss's music library. ive gotten stoned just listening to warrior at the edge of time. and qotsa are stp rip offs, what!! thats the dumbest thing ive ever heard obviously earthy has been invaded by a lesser species. im going to kill myself know before your kind invades my brain with your parasitic means of survival. boom splat
No one's saying Hawkwind weren't a massive influence on KYUSS. We ARE saying that musically, Hawkwind were hacks. Except for Lemmy. They always had good intentions, but as far as musical talent goes, they didn't have any.
GONG.
THAT'S a Space Rock band with virtuoso musical chops.
And yeah, that dude's a fucking idiot for comparing QOTSA to STP. LMAO.
Kyuss are unbelieveabley brilliant, i dont even have the words to describe, a word like, "florganious" is not near appropriate and thats not even a word? check out hombretheband, ie , me
I love how the bass is actually apart of the band instead of having it turned down to 1 and chillin out in the backround. excellent song as usual by Kyuss.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
