If the stories are true, the video below doesn't embody the best era of Kyuss. Their 1995 swansong ...And the Circus Leaves Town, from which this song was taken, featured only two original members and the band disbanded a scant few months after its release. If there's any video that tries to capture the True Kyuss Experience, it's this one. These guys were something to be experienced, not just listened to. For proof, pay special attention to the long-hairs surrounding the band, swaying, bobbing and tripping in the dim light of Mario Lalli's generator-driven bare bulb. Truly electrifying.

However, because the sound/video quality on that video isn't great, I offer this as compensation. I think it's the only one they ever did [edit: nope, I was wrong, check comments below for two more] and it's about what you'd expect from these Low-Desert punks. I mean, of course they would play in the desert under a lava-lamp sky.
