  • This album has been surrounded by controversy for years, and the details are sketchy at best. Conflicting stories abound, to the extent that I don't even know if Scott Reeder is playing on this one or not. What I do know is that this album is among John Garcia's best work, and one of my all-time favorite rock records...even though it's never seen an official release. Super-producer Rick Rubin signed UNIDA to his American imprint, only to transfer the band's contract to Island/Def Jam before the album's release. Ironically, this was around the time that Garcia's ol' buddies in QUEENS OF THE STONE AGE were becoming mainstream mainstays, with many publications deeming them the saviors of rock n' roll. Had The Great Divide been released as scheduled, it would've gone head-to-head with QOTSA's Songs for the Deaf, and in the opinions of many fans, won. Songs for the Deaf was (and is still) a great record, but The Great Divide is truly classic. While UNIDA does recycle a couple of songs from their indie releases, that's not uncommon when jumping to the proverbial "big leagues", and in context of the LP as a whole, the songs fit perfectly. The production is top-notch. I put The Great Divide up there with the classic releases of KYUSS, though John Garcia has NEVER sounded better. When QOTSA were "bringing rock back", the K-word was on the lips of every rock fan, and they would've sought out John Garcia and UNIDA. I have no idea what goes on "behind the scenes", but I do wish Rick Rubin would've put HALF the effort into this project that he did Danzig and Johnny Cash. As it turns out, this is all we have of UNIDA (though the band did sell an abbreviated version of the album at shows called El Coyote). John Garcia went on to form HERMANO (which kicks ass) and The Great Divide was left to travel among our merry band of bootleggers. This wasn't the only time Rick Rubin dropped the ball, but we'll discuss the great FLIPPER another day.

      Scott, I hope it's really you ..
      I just wanna say thank you man .. I was so bored of everything I've heard in recent years and Kyuss was my gateway into a new found passion in music.
      I was going through a hard time after a rough break up but Kyuss's music along with 'Unida' really got me through hard times, me and my pal both got into both Kyuss and Unida at the same time and hell man .. It's amazing, I maybe starting a band with my best friend.
      I was terribly bored of the same metal songs and pop songs on the radio, I just want to say thank you man .. I love your bass lines and your style just works on so many levels.
      Once again, thanks man!

    I've listened to this for three hours now and I can't stop. The raw emotions in the vocals, the searing solos and that fat bass line culminate to one of the absolute best stoner songs I've listened to all time. One of the best things I've ever come across, actually. I put this on the same shelf as Elder, Tool, Villagers of Ioannina City, Arenna etc. in terms of what this music lets me feel when listening to it.
    Does anybody have recommendations as to what other song (or singer, band..) might come close to Garcias work in this piece? I'd highly appreciate it.

    • @paulgottfried5356
      @paulgottfried5356 3 роки тому

      I only discovered KYUSS a year ago. So I was familiar with QOTSA from their start. Then began to connect dots with some of the members’ histories. Never cared for Queens, much, very commercial , plus I followed Brant Bjork’s path(KYUSS drummer, I mean exceptional drummer, who, I found out later, is a master of many instruments. I’m sure you have, but if you haven’t, check out his solo stuff, some is so, so, but most of it is fantastic. He teams up with John as VISTA CHINO, and I like it. Another band I discovered who were influenced by Sabbath and KYUSS, is “1000 MODS” a band out of Greece, who have pretty much became my favourite. Best described like, after listening to them, you’ll need some outside assistance to help pry yourself out of your seat(ie: “MIRRORS”).I would be very interested to know what you think of them. I’m very late to this party, but it’s hard finding people in my surroundings who are dedicated to their music, as you and others here are. Anyway, take it easy.

    As an ultimate die hard fan of Urban Coyote, I also dug what I could about this story. Divide was sssso anticipated and would have never even compared with the deaf egotripper's records. Sure josh made great things, the unmastered original version of their 1st album, and a few off their 3rd for instance. But I saw fame getting to his big head, to the point where he felt he had the right to kick front row photographers in the face while performing. That said, this song is awesome, but the whole record I thought was not Unida. The catchy songs and Rubin's vision, in my opinion, got them to lose grip on the magic they once had on the Split cd with Dozer, and the following Urban Coyote. They lost 35K in the process, and Hermano was a very tasteful next step for John. Sending Positive Vibrations your way man ☀️
