Zespół uważany przez wielu za "ojców stoner rocka". Amerykanie z Palm Desert w stanie Kalifornia rozpoczęli swoją działalność jeszcze jako Katzerjammer w 1987, w latach 1989- 1991 występowali pod nazwa Sons of Kyuss, a następnie pod najbardziej znaną do 1996.
Idea nie umarła na zawsze i była/jest kontynuowana w projektach Kyuss Lives! i Vista Chino.
Twórcy pustynnego rocka dali początek wielu innym zespołom z półki stoner i rock, m.in. Queens of The Stone Age, Eagles Of Death Metal, Fu Manchu, Them Crooked Vultures, Mondo Generator, Slo Burn, Hermano, Unida.
