JOSH HOMME says KYUSS reunion is possible”

27-06-2025

In a new interview with Kyuss World founder Nathan LawverJosh Homme once again spoke about the possibility of a KYUSS reunion. The Californian four-piece split three months following the release of KYUSS‘s final album, 1995’s “…And The Circus Leaves Town”, resulting in it being less critically and commercially successful when compared to the two KYUSS albums which helped birth the stoner rock movement — 1992’s “Blues For The Red Sun” and 1994’s “Welcome To Sky Valley”.

Regarding the prospect of KYUSS performing live again, Homme said: “I know I thought about it many times… I think about it. I’ve actually talked about it a few times to people that help me do stuff.”

Josh continued: “I don’t know. I just feel like the punctuation of KYUSS — it was such a perfect little unit, and it ended the way it should. And was totally in support of what was happening in KYUSS LIVES! and things like that. It was just that there were some tricky things that were pulled… I think it’s good for people to know what happened. But it always left me with a strange feeling, because it’s, like, you wanna set things right. And plus I just don’t think it’s good… There’s no reason to hold on to anything negative. I don’t have negative feelings about anybody. None of that stuff matters. So, yeah, it’s possible.”

Homme previously discussed a possible KYUSS reunion in 2020 while being interviewed by Kyuss World Radio about the 25th anniversary of “…And The Circus Leaves Town”. He said at the time: “My philosophy has always been, never do a reunion, never do a sequel. It’s not what it was; it’s what it is. And that’s kind of how I’ve felt.”

After KYUSS split in 1995, Homme went on to form QUEENS OF THE STONE AGE.
