I booked Kyuss opening for Faith No More at Chico State - huge fan, first time seeing them - they killed it. Booked them many times after. Thanks for this
First thing I ever heard from them was “ Thong Song” and I’ll have to admit I wasn’t really into it. Couple of months later, I saw them open for Danzig and they absolutely won me over. Been a fan ever since. And although I’ve learned almost all of their songs over the past 30 years I’ve still got to say that this is a really great video, David… One of your best yet. Thanks for the great content and keep up the good work… All the best!
I discovered Kyuss in early nineties and really loved the band, they were fresh, original and they were making good music just for the love of it, not for commercial glory. My humble opinion.
I’ve never chased any of his tones but I love the mindset he uses, where it seems the twists turns and hidden quirks aren’t so much to highlight his guitar playing….but to bring more depth etc into the song structure and overall feel….
I guess the bands pentagram and down will be the next lessons coming up? Most people don't even know who is buzz osbourne which is pretty shocking or that dinosaur jr started in the early 80's and don't know that both of those bands would have never been a nirvana with out the melvins and dinosaur jr to influence grunge music. Kyuss and down are just a modern version of what pentagram was going in the early 70's but dinosaur jr was doing grunge in the 80's before nirvana which nirvana was "a hybrid" of the melvins, dinosaur jr, mudhoney, kyuss, with catchy pop hooks added,etc
Buzz and Dale are both 2 of my favorite musicians/influences, especially the first several Melvins albums (Ozma, Gluey Porch Treatments, Bullhead, 10 Songs).
Have you ever considered doing a chordplay/riffage of Clutch? Maybe do 10001110101, Spacegrass and whatever else you'd want to do? As always, Love your channel and your playing Dave! You freakin' rock! ❤️🎸🤟😜🤟❤️🎵 Edit: I just saw your list of bands using the C tuning, and I forgot about old Hevy Devy! It would be even more phenomenal if you would do a Chordplay of SYL, as well!
Thanks for the lesson, much interesting. Catamaran is a cover, it's a song by Yawning Man. Hence the quiet melodic line. You should check their other stuff, Yawning Man's guitarist Gary Arce is a great player.
Gday David I've been watching a few of your posts been playing a long time or trying too I should say Your presentations and detail are great thanks for sharing the finer points of some great moments in music and explaining your take on it Good man u do very well your timing and accuracy is pretty refreshing to say the least cheers and thanks again
Fatso Forgoto sounded like full blown sludge definitely heavy Palm Desert in the summer is one furnace of a place had some 115,s this week man those strings must a been flapping on that tuning you can hear some Sabbath influences there cool episode tonight !
great lesson! Kyuss is awesome! I love c-standard tuning. My Les Paul is left at that tuning premanently for at least 3-4 years now. Btw another band that uses C standard tuning is Goatwhore with former Acid bath guitarist Sammy Duet and former Soilent Green vocalist Ben Falgoust. love to see a "Chords of Goatwhore" lesson ;)
20:40 For that extra heavy tone. 🙃 Seriously, that's great for strengthening the weakest finger. I used to make up tapping riffs to play using just both pinkies.
Awesome, so do you think heavy strings on normal scale is the way to go vs baritone long scale for down tuning? What are your thoughts. Could you play the same things on a baritone with wider fret spacing? Thank you

@arceneaux777 Seeing them at Chico would have been so sick.

Cool...well done, David. Enjoyable to watch a Master at work!

Awesome! This band is part of my musical upbringing and I'm a fan. Great lesson as always! Thank you
I thought those were some very interesting riffs. Great lesson!!!

They dropped some pretty good albums in the last few years. Instrumental stuff.
Hi. I like their recent stuff better.
Awesome Dave ... thank you sooo much !

Prs with a gold foil is crazy I love it

it's 96 here today.. looks like i'll be playing Kyuss covers in the AC all day haha. great tutorial

Awesome lesson thank you! Please consider doing one on Pentagram.
Love Kyuss! Sky Valley has been the soundtrack to my summers for the last 20 years now.
That guitar is delicious too, what is that?
Yes... Please do more queens and kyuss. Some desert sessions etc too ❤
Great Lesson, David! Thanks!
Demon Cleaner has always been my favorite song of theirs 🤘
Expected this to be harmony explanation of the chords and interplay from the title
Great guitar tone
Can you do an Elder chordplay episode? I love all there albums but “dead roots stirring” and “Lore” are probably my favourite.
I thought this was going to be a music-theory lesson on Kyuss. This is just how to play some of their riffs.
Awesome, so do you think heavy strings on normal scale is the way to go vs baritone long scale for down tuning? What are your thoughts. Could you play the same things on a baritone with wider fret spacing? Thank you
very cool, new sub!
Keep um commin......RAMJAM
Nice
3:05 i never visit c tuning for long either. Because after i play a few notes, my guitar is completely out of tune 😂
Demon cleaner was the 1st kyuss song I heard
Demon Cleaner!
gonna guess demon cleaner
How bout some Uncle Acid !
I think Machine Head play in C
Great video! That guitar looks amazing.
