The desert mafia is back ! John Garcia, Brant Bjork, Nick Oliveri and Bruno Fevery, formerly known as KYUSS LIVES! (also formerly KYUSS, but you’d check all the history by yourself) will soon start their first European summer tour as VISTA CHINO ! Same foursome, same sandy stoner rock, same spirit, new band name. And even if they had named themselves “Underground Cucumber”, they’d remain the sexiest desert rock band on Earth, and we’d still be eager to discover their new tunes live. And the circus will leave town…
The band will release their new record as VISTA CHINO this fall, it already has a name : it’s called “Peace”. Something they deserve, if you ask me. A first excerpt off the record, “Dargona Dragona”, is available on the band’s Soundcloud. Dirty, huh ? VISTA CHINO recently signed a deal on Napalm Records (the label of Karma To Burn, Monster Magnet and Brant Bjork).
John Garcia (vocalist/God) declared : “Kyuss Lives is now VISTA CHINO!.. It feels great just to write that… And to say it out loud, feels even better. Now that our relationship with Napalm Records is official; it’s time to forget about the past year, move forward, and execute our original plan, which was to make kick ass music and tour the world!”
