Has anybody heard of Kyuss? Can you recommend any similar bands?

I recently discovered their album Welcome to Sky Valley and its got some of the best riffs ever

Queens Of The Stone Age has Josh Homme, Alfredo Hernandez, and Nick Oliveri from Kyuss, and they are an excellent band.

I'll be honest and say for me, no one's come close to touching Kyuss at this sort of sound. I do also quite like Sleep (although they're a bit hit and miss), Fu Manchu (although they don't get the trippy stuff like Kyuss do), recently Colour Haze have been getting a fair bit of play. More into the metal side there was an independent band Camel of Doom whose last EP was excellent, although I thought the earlier stuff was... quite forgettable. Queens of the Stone Age are, needless to say, excellent, and although they're quite different to the bulk of Kyuss' material, if you give a listen to Demon Cleaner I think you'll find a similarity in style

Try out the Spiritual Beggars - excellent trippy stoner rock from Sweden with very nice organs!

Jesus never managed to figure out the theremin either

10x everyone for your suggestions. I've tried most of these bands before but i just cant find anyone who are really similar to them except for maybe Unida and Slo-Burn seeing that they have the same vocalist. I'll try out the ones i haven't heard like high on fire, colour haze, camel of doom, spiritual beggars. 10x again
