Kyuss(pronounced ['kaɪ.əs]) is the corner stone of the genre known to many as stoner rock. Their sound is quite unique and generally noted for Homme's guitar always being tuned to a low C tuning. This tuning is a major third below standard pitch. The band was originally formed in 1989 in Palm Desert, Californiaunder the name, Sons of Kyuss. They took the name from a monster in Dungeons and Dragons.

Odyssey Lyrics
Kyuss
Take one to the mountain
Take one to the sea
Take one to the belly of the beast
and then you'll take one with me
Shut it, shut it on
Freezing in the fires
when I utter howl your name
once you return from the belly of the beast
you're never quite the same
Shut it, shut it on,
Shut it, shut it on,
fire on the mountain
and it rages inside of your soul
the fire inside the belly of the beast
well it thunderizes your soul
Shut it, shut it on
