Pre-Kyuss: Sons of Kyuss

Sons Of Kyuss


This is an early album before the band was called Kyuss. It contains some of the songs that eventually made their way on to the Wretch CD. It is extremely rare and only one person on the mailing list seems to have an original copy.

Most of the album is identical to Wretch. Here's the track listing:

  • Deadly Kiss (the exact same as Wretch, this is where it came from.)
  • Window of Souls
  • King
  • Isolation Desolation
  • Love Has Passed Me By
  • Black Widow (the exact same as wretch)
  • Happy Birthday (not the traditional one)
  • Katzenjammer
  • The lineup of the band is mostly the same as on Wretch, that is John Garcia (vocals), Josh Homme (guitar), Chris Cockrell (bass), and Brant Bjork (drums). This album was only released on vinyl in the Palm Springs area around 1990 and is no longer available.


    I also have images of the back of the album, the front of the liner notes, and the back of the liner notes. Be aware that the liner note images are 600k and 400k each, so don't download them on a whim. The plus side is that they have lyrics on them and the back image also has a (small) picture of the band jamming.


    I consider myself in debt to Jeff Funk for having provided this information and scanning in the pictures you see here.
