The whole point of covering a song is to let the artist play it how they feel it. It's not supposed to sound the same or even better. It's supposed to sound like Kyuss playing Into the Void.
I totally agree. I want to hear other bands make the songs their own. If I want to hear a clone of Sabbath, I'll just listen to Sabbath. Have you ever heard the Dr. Know Version.
the title says COVER not KYUSS VERSION. cover means you get to play the song as close as possible to the original. better learn something first before you start talking and acting smartass. go search for VERSIONs not COVERS. cheers
this is the heaviet riff ever written i dont care what anyone thinks... great cover.. i dare you to keep your head still listening to it, I DARRRRE YOUUUU!
Speedwings Maybe but I don't feel it, Tool music is (in general) probably too much transcendental somehow (imo)...it's almost music for meditation. For Black Sabbath songs (covers) you need a more raw/direct sound....but again...just my opinion.
@@MLCrow look how they covered Led Zeppelin's No Quarter. They extended the song to 11 minutes from 7, and made a completely unique flow to it. I am totally sure they wouldn't mind something like that, and since they haven't really released any bad material at all, it probably wouldn't suck at all either
@@TimBookTwo You guys reminds me of a full circle spacetrip I did once. Thing is, if you still comment this after 15 years since this video war released, you rate it.... And I know for sure, you two rate it pretty fu¤(n accurate, not over, not under, but juuuust on the button, man. Cheers from the scandinavian woods.
I agree with other comments... you cant get better than the original.. on vinyl with all the clicks and hiss.. the ultimate heavy track.. i still love hearing other versions, it breaths life into these numbers again. Kyuss do a good job here.
Black Sabbath is not "Satan-worshipping." The only the songs that even mentioned the devil in the lyrics were on their first album, and then pretty much nothing after. They were never satan-worshipping, most of their songs were about drugs anyway. It only became lame and about demons after Ozzy lefy and Ronnie Fire-breathing Stonehenge Dragon Satan Dio joined. Anyway this is pretty much the only cover of a Black Sabbath song ever made that did them any real justice.
@ConiferTreez Quality music? Like you had even HEARD of Pino Palladino before? My 2 favorite guitarists are Hendrix & SRV. Got anything to say? Other than those 2, just check my favorites page to see what music I'm about.
@VincentL7 Exhorder's version, other than the vocals, is a carbon copy of the original, except with a pussified nu-metal sound. The tone is terrible. The guitar in this version actually has some balls, and it's super heavy. The original take on the middle section (the jungle jam) is awesome too.
Kyuss did a great job adding extra heavyness, lenght and groove to this song. Moreover, they showcased what their major influence is, which is essentially, IMO, drawn from the exceptional album Master of Reality. They somehow translated the Sabbathian' early doom and sludge into a sound that belongs to the desert! It's all so incredible, I can't accept that Kyuss is so unknown and not given enough credit to.
MOR's debut album is one of the greatest albums of all time. No shock that Chris Goss is both the heart and soul of Master and produced three of Kyuss' four albums.
I remember reading a Kyuss interview in the early 90s where they said they'd never heard Black Sabbath before. It was obvious they were fucking with the interviewer, but he still seemed a little confused by it. Too damn funny.
When people cover a song they need to play it the way they play, not the way the original artists play. Thats what Kyuss did. Look at hendrix, whenever he covers a song, he plays it hendrix style. This is probably the best cover of this song i've heard!
+lynchie137 That would be awesome but Josh did not leave Kyuss in a good way. Plus he sued them when they got back together and tried to use the name Kyuss Lives... so that might be kinda tough
If you ever played this song, all parts are friggin easy - guitar, bass, drums, but the vocals is one hell of a job to pull. And Kyuss deserves all the credits for that funny latino interpretation of the middle part, well done.
It's not about who did the better version. Black Sabbath is the most influential metal band in history, whose legacy if far beyond any other bands. That's just a fact. And into the void is one of Sabbaths best songs ever. Kyuss is not even close to Black Sabbath. Everybody with just a little common sense will know that. However - This tribute is played with respect to the original, and with just the right touch so everybody knows that this is Kyuss playing. Best Sabbath cover I ever heard
Lyrics: Rocket engines burning fuel so fast Up into the night sky they blast Through the universe the engines whine Could it be the end of man and time? Back on earth the flame of life burns low Everywhere is misery and woe Pollution kills the air, the land, the sea Man prepares to meet his destiny, yeah Rocket engines burning fuel so fast Up into the black sky so vast Burning metal through the atmosphere Earth remains in worry, hate and fear With the hateful battles raging on Rockets flying to the glowing sun Through the empires of eternal void Freedom from the final suicide Freedom fighters sent out to the sun Escape from brainwashed winds and pollution Leave the earth to all it's sin and hate Find another world where freedom waits, yeah Past the stars in fields of ancient void Through the shields of darkness where they find Love upon a land a world unknown Where the sons of freedom make their home Leave the earth to Satan and his slaves Leave them to their future in their graves Make a home where love is there to stay Peace and happiness in every day
Homme was just on Joe Rogan saying how he used to get pissed when people would mention Sabbath in comparison to Kyuss. Said he hated metal n never even listened to any Sabbath growing up. Then you hear this n wonder wtf was he ranting about on the Rogan podcast. This is the best cover of a Sabbath song ever
There are several old interview clips on RUclips here as well where he talks about Sabbath being music 'your dad listened to' or something along the lines. He sounds kind of pissy about it as well so I found it baffling to find this cover after seeing him deride them several times in interviews.
@@MM-bm5zx I've seen this before, I think he has always tried hard to craft his rock 'n' roll image, more so than any other artist in the genre in recent memory (most recent QotSA album is borderline parody of that imo). I guess eschewing any metal association is part of that, I guess it ain't 'sexy'.
@67goldtops this may not be his best bass-work, but Scott Reeder is one of the most underrated bassists of the 90's. Actually, ever. Listen to any song off of Welcome to Sky Valley and tell me he doesn't have insane groove.
Damn. One of the best covers. Ever. The arrangement on this is so different which makes this stand out! Never really listened to Kyuss before but I've gotta listen to Kyuss more now.
2:56 I'm hearing this for the first time and since the riff was already slowed way the fuck down I expected a heavy massive slow section cuz its kyuss but what I got was even better
The only measure of heaviness for the main riff is in planets. This is a nine planet riff. Iommi is the God of all things heavy. Kyuss is merely an interpreter in the wake of Black Sabbath's heaviness, which has never been nor shall ever be equaled.
@Kalinack why post this here? why rip on a 90s underground stoner band. fair enough ripping on pop music that is pushed in your face when you are trying to do your shopping, but not this. What, did this song interfere with your glowstick party or something?
I think the vocals are great but John mentioned to this day he can't listen to the recorded vocals. He requested the recording of new vocals shortly after recording but by the time he asked it was too late.
@ryan25n Once again, you've no idea of what you're writing about. Boxing is one small component of what an elite UFC fighter must possess. While it's true that an elite boxer's BOXING skills surpass most UFC guys, it's also true that ALL boxers can do nothing else. Can't wrestle, can't execute any holds or submissions, can't fight on their backs. Whereas you take Anderson SIlva as as example. He can do ALL of those AND box at an elite level. There are ZERO boxers with that ability.
@ryan25n You clearly have ZERO idea of what you're attempting to write about. Mixed martial arts is DOMINATED by wrestlers. It is THE basis by which fighters excel in martial arts combat. Whereas boxing doesn't even enter the conversation. Disagree? Name ONE boxer that's beaten a wrestler in a UFC match. Oh, apparently you didn't see Randy Couture dismantle James Toney. Not that I wouldn't still wreck you without even needing to take you down. I bet you can't even wrap your own hands.
@67goldtops First of all, I hate shredders. All one need do is spend 30 seconds on my favorites page to see the players that move me. Marc Ford, Duane Allman, Chris Whitley, Mick Taylor...You think these guys are shredders? Or are you really so lost that you think shredders are the only alternative to incompetents like Josh? Expand your horizons, son. There are dozens of cats who have something original to say on the instrument and, unlike Josh, can actually navigate the fretboard.
@yovioleatuzorramadre You obviously can't discern the different styles in music between the bast majority of metal genres. You sound like a lefty bashing the market and capitalism instead of seeing or analyzing what makes a type of metal different from the other. Trash metal is way different from doom metal, and doom metal is different from black metal, black from death, and so on. Focus on the genre, not on the bands. Metal is what it is regardless of your personal- Marxist beliefs.
@NuclearGuru350 I don't know man, this Kyuss version is too fast and too fragmental on its riffs for me, and that doesn't make it any heavier. Heavy is not in the bass alone, but in the slow, deep, and gradual conclusion delivery of the riffs, and that's precisely what characterizes doom metal as the heaviest of them all, therein lie REAL balls dude, if you know what I mean.
@TheAndrewsterner Your RIGHT a thousand times!!!! But I NEVER said that any of the other great bands, including this one Kyuss, NOT even my favorite one, Exhorder, have the talent to top the original one by Black Sabbath, after all, they're the creators of this musical masterpiece. I meant to say that any of the versions that came after Sabbath's original Into The Void, the one by Exhorder was the best, and Tony Iommi himself once said the same.
@NuclearGuru350 Exhorder doesn't have a "nu-metal" sound, what are you talking about! Exhorder is a trash metal band. This Kyuss band may have the sound of the 70s rock bands, but their leading guitar is not nearly as heavy as Exhorder's, NOT AT ALL! Just compare the riffs on this version and the one by Exhorder. Listen to the studio version of this song by Exhorder, and you'll find the tone is not that terrible.
@306ness Ah, speaking of fucked up break downs. Have you ever tested out Rotor ? They are the only kind of "progressive stoner rock" band I've encountered so far. Perfect consent for sophisticated true rock fans ^^ ... I bet you could make friends with them... ehm... a song tip... Rotor - Klar Schiff ... you'll find it here on youtube... and it's really fuckin... ehm... complicated... but still groovy as shit... have fun, nice conversation, m8 :) ...
@yovioleatuzorramadre - I wouldn't go as far as to say it OWNS Ben Shepherd. I've not heard all of "Circus", but what I've heard of it sounds as though Hernandez is thrashing around his kit in a slightly stoned frenzy. It's kind of out of control. That's cool - I just (slightly) prefer Cameron's very controlled precision and complexity. I'd agree, though, Brant Bjork is certainly better than Hernandez - I haven't thought to compare him to Cameron, so I'll hold judgment on that one for now!
@yovioleatuzorramadre - are you kidding? Cornell's voice, with its huge power and range, is much better than John Garcia's flat growl! Thayil is Homme's equal in skill (though obviously their styles differ), I can't really comment on the bass playing, but you should hear Soundgarden's Rusty Cage - its bassline is wicked. I would also opine that Cameron's precise drumming, with its complex meters, is rather better than the semi-organised chaos of Hernandez...
@306ness Ehm, actually this is me as long as it's no unexpressive, shredding with no soul ^^ ... And this is what it's all about, dude. Take colour haze for instance, they also incorporate massively extended, psychedelic solo play into their music. This is just part of the genre stoner rock. If that is missed, then seriously something is missed ^^ ...
Nearly as good as Panteras cover of Planet Caravan. Very few can cover sabbath and walk away with any dignity left. Nice. By the way the sabbath version is obsolete? Anything else is mere attempt. Some better than others (like this). There really is only ONE valid version of this song. This isnt it BUT a very valiant and pleasing effort nonetheless.
@HispanicImpression ya know what, you're right. i guess that's what takes the robot out of it. i just prefer fucked up breakdowns and strange maths and shit or just raw power to noodling around, but whatever, sometimes it's rad. to each his own, rock for the stoned.
@MEXICANOcomeCACA Geezer Butler was never a better Bass player, nor 1/2 as versatile a musician, nor 1/2 as accomplished a writer as JPJ. Further, Pino Palladino, Les Claypool, and Stu Hamm are the best living bassists on the planet. I'll even dust off Billy Sheehan and put him on that list.
@MakkalTK Of course you don't have to play "a lot of notes" to be a good guitarist. Hendrix and SRV could do more with one note than most did in their careers. Next point...Josh Home is NOT a good guitarist. His phrasing, vibrato, and attack are about as memorable as taking a piss.
decent, but I think the sabbath version is still better by a long way. nobody can out-sabbath sabbath. the riffs sound good, but the drumming here is vastly inferior to bill ward, and I'm not even referring to the silly conga part. and this song needs the creepy ozzy wail. period.

Kyuss and Tool should've released a straight cover album of Black Sabbath. That would be the acid trip to end all trips.

What a cover. The fact that there's debate over whether or not it's better than Sabbath is testament enough.
Right on .really sounds good.first time I heard them play.one of my favorite Sabbath tunes..BRAVO!!
this one and the soundgarden cover, BEST COVERS
I agree with other comments... you cant get better than the original.. on vinyl with all the clicks and hiss.. the ultimate heavy track.. i still love hearing other versions, it breaths life into these numbers again. Kyuss do a good job here.
i didnt know that the covered this.pretty good.after all kyuss love the sabath.
never heard this band before but i like this cover
did u hear Pantera cover Planet Caravan?
The only other Sabbath cover I've heard as good as this one is Pantera's "Electric Funeral". Both bands nailed it.
they did the best cover of into the void. bongos was overkill... played with drum sticks
Is it really Josh Homme playing this?
the band!
i still wanna see a death metal version of this. would be awesome
I have a hard time seeing that come together.. I think the speed would mess up the vibe of the riff, but wth do i know
How Fkn fuzzy can things get??? No, it's not Sabbath but fuckin oath it's GREAT! Bongos are killer
hah sick cover..on 3:00 i almost thought they were gonna play The Druid..

67 people who gave this a thumbs down need a masonry drill inserted in their ear.
@blacklabelnc Same here=)
jest moc
Most bands botch Sabbath covers. These guys did a pretty good job. I like the breakdown section.
When QOTSA fans ain't heard of Kyuss.... Hehe come let me take you down a musical journey. This is such a rad cover.
My Dad is friends with the bassist (Scott Reader) so I was able to meet him really cool dude he has horses
@@hammerheadduck your reply is the closest I've ever been.. Can I touch you haha that's so rad man he's such a radonkulas bass player.
At musical journey I instantly thought of Gene Wilder as Wonka. Haha. 👍🙏
Kyuss is very similar to Sabbath in a sense they both have great rhythm sections. The bass & drums lock in and groove so hard.
yeah, the bass is quite similar to Black Sabbath in a lot of Kyuss songs.
Listen to this, then immediately Demon Cleaner. It's like chocolate in the peanut butter. Better together.
Kyuss did a great job adding extra heavyness, lenght and groove to this song.

Could you imagine hearing the original in 1971? I mean, Jefferson Airplane to this in 4 years.
Or how about this Shit. Cher' s Gypsies Tramps and Thieves was number one when Sab put this out.
Eugenio Moraes I agree......Kyuss is SO underrated!
MOR's debut album is one of the greatest albums of all time. No shock that Chris Goss is both the heart and soul of Master and produced three of Kyuss' four albums.
Hells yeah bra , I’m still a fan fan at 43
I remember reading a Kyuss interview in the early 90s where they said they'd never heard Black Sabbath before. It was obvious they were fucking with the interviewer, but he still seemed a little confused by it. Too damn funny.

When people cover a song they need to play it the way they play, not the way the original artists play. Thats what Kyuss did. Look at hendrix, whenever he covers a song, he plays it hendrix style.

Sometime I wish that Qotsa sounded more like this. This is a massively heavy rendition of a massively heavy Sabbath song.

yukimaruzam You think that the two of them would get back together and have a jam sometime?
+lynchie137 That would be awesome but Josh did not leave Kyuss in a good way. Plus he sued them when they got back together and tried to use the name Kyuss Lives... so that might be kinda tough

@@joelmonteiro1419 is that a bad thing?
@@MrPhoenix6666 not necessarily. I think a lot of the elements from the original get lost in Monster Magnet's cover, but it's not necessarily bad.
It's not about who did the better version. Black Sabbath is the most influential metal band in history, whose legacy if far beyond any other bands. That's just a fact. And into the void is one of Sabbaths best songs ever.

Best Sabbath cover I ever heard
Lyrics:
Rocket engines burning fuel so fast
Up into the night sky they blast
Through the universe the engines whine
Could it be the end of man and time?
Back on earth the flame of life burns low
Everywhere is misery and woe
Pollution kills the air, the land, the sea
Man prepares to meet his destiny, yeah
Rocket engines burning fuel so fast
Up into the black sky so vast
Burning metal through the atmosphere
Earth remains in worry, hate and fear
With the hateful battles raging on
Rockets flying to the glowing sun
Through the empires of eternal void
Freedom from the final suicide
Freedom fighters sent out to the sun
Escape from brainwashed winds and pollution
Leave the earth to all it's sin and hate
Find another world where freedom waits, yeah
Past the stars in fields of ancient void
Through the shields of darkness where they find
Love upon a land a world unknown
Where the sons of freedom make their home
Leave the earth to Satan and his slaves
Leave them to their future in their graves
Make a home where love is there to stay
Peace and happiness in every day
Those lyrics, plus the heaviest riffs ever written = perfection.
What's weird is how Homme has always profoundly rejected any Sabbath (and metal in general) influence in his style.Still a great cover!

i feel like im the only one in the world who hasnt covered this song yet.
3 best sabbath covers are as follows. Kyuss-into the void. Sleep-snowblind. Pantera-planet caravan/hole in the sky
Where's the end of the song ??? Dude !! Really ?????? WTF !
@67goldtops this may not be his best bass-work, but Scott Reeder is one of the most underrated bassists of the 90's. Actually, ever. Listen to any song off of Welcome to Sky Valley and tell me he doesn't have insane groove.
There's just something about that solo.. it's amazing. It's painfully clear that Homme is a guitar god.
WOW, this is some badass
DOOM METAL shit!!!
I always thought KYUSS
had some Sabbath in them,
and this jam is fucking perfect!!!
Damn. One of the best covers. Ever. The arrangement on this is so different which makes this stand out!
Never really listened to Kyuss before but
I've gotta listen to Kyuss more now.
Can't ever get enough of kyuss fucking period!!
Vocals are surprisingly siiiiick
Desert rock NEVER DIE!!!
Thumbs up if ur a kyuss fan!
I stand up because I'm a KYUSS fan!!
That bass tone on the last verse is killer
all sabbath is amazing up until never say die. sabbath, kyuss and QOTSA are my favorite guitar bands
Technical Ecstasy is kind of a weak album too.
Heaven And Hell is a masterpiece 🤘
wtf ... kyuss is one of my favorite bands but the original is WAY fucking better, by a lightyear....
What you hate this song, Kyuss covering Black Sabbath, this is one badass song !!
2:56 I'm hearing this for the first time and since the riff was already slowed way the fuck down I expected a heavy massive slow section cuz its kyuss but what I got was even better
This was the first Kyuss song i ever heard. Amazing cover..
Try a song that I wrote call "RED LAMP PROJECT - MENDED" very sabathy. let me know what you think. Rock on!
Ficou muito bom. O vocal ficou bem melhor do que o Ozzy
the fact of the matter is, on the original track, we all learned that Iommi is untouchable. this song proves he's the riff master
Ultra heavy song by ultra heavy Sabbath covered by ultra heavy desert stoner band
When the greatest band of all time covers the greatest song ever recorded, nothing can possiblly be wrong.
I'am a Sabbath fan.
This is a GREAT cover!
Damn the devils number 666k views gawd damn
Josh Homme is a really underrated guitarist/musician
THICK.. ISN'T IT..!!!!
Easily one of the best sabbath covers I've ever heard.
Stoner Rock..is the fucking!
If any band don't sound stupid even trying to cover Black Sabbath it's Kyuss, they were like Sabbath's children.
listen to soundgardens version! awesome..
There are alot of good covers of this excellent song but i like this one the most
Opening riff is insane.
Brutal Can't believe you can go from this to QOTSA the fall off is crazy
I wanna put together a band this cool
The only measure of heaviness for the main riff is in planets. This is a nine planet riff. Iommi is the God of all things heavy. Kyuss is merely an interpreter in the wake of Black Sabbath's heaviness, which has never been nor shall ever be equaled.

after Sabbath's original Into The Void, the one by Exhorder was the
best, and Tony Iommi himself once said the same.
@NuclearGuru350 Exhorder doesn't have a "nu-metal" sound,
what are you talking about! Exhorder is a trash metal band. This
Kyuss band may have the sound of the 70s rock bands, but their
leading guitar is not nearly as heavy as Exhorder's, NOT AT ALL!
Just compare the riffs on this version and the one by Exhorder.
Listen to the studio version of this song by Exhorder, and you'll
find the tone is not that terrible.

Ah, speaking of fucked up break downs. Have you ever tested out Rotor ?
They are the only kind of "progressive stoner rock" band I've encountered so far.
Perfect consent for sophisticated true rock fans ^^ ...
I bet you could make friends with them... ehm... a song tip... Rotor - Klar Schiff ...
you'll find it here on youtube... and it's really fuckin... ehm... complicated... but still groovy as shit... have fun, nice conversation, m8 :) ...
@yovioleatuzorramadre - I wouldn't go as far as to say it OWNS Ben Shepherd. I've not heard all of "Circus", but what I've heard of it sounds as though Hernandez is thrashing around his kit in a slightly stoned frenzy. It's kind of out of control. That's cool - I just (slightly) prefer Cameron's very controlled precision and complexity. I'd agree, though, Brant Bjork is certainly better than Hernandez - I haven't thought to compare him to Cameron, so I'll hold judgment on that one for now!
@yovioleatuzorramadre - are you kidding? Cornell's voice, with its huge power and range, is much better than John Garcia's flat growl! Thayil is Homme's equal in skill (though obviously their styles differ), I can't really comment on the bass playing, but you should hear Soundgarden's Rusty Cage - its bassline is wicked. I would also opine that Cameron's precise drumming, with its complex meters, is rather better than the semi-organised chaos of Hernandez...
@306ness
Ehm, actually this is me as long as it's no unexpressive, shredding with no soul ^^ ...
And this is what it's all about, dude. Take colour haze for instance, they also incorporate massively extended, psychedelic solo play into their music. This is just part of the genre stoner rock. If that is missed, then seriously something is missed ^^ ...
Nearly as good as Panteras cover of Planet Caravan. Very few can cover sabbath and walk away with any dignity left.
Nice.
By the way the sabbath version is obsolete?
Anything else is mere attempt. Some better than others (like this).
There really is only ONE valid version of this song. This isnt it BUT a very valiant and pleasing effort nonetheless.
@HispanicImpression ya know what, you're right. i guess that's what takes the robot out of it. i just prefer fucked up breakdowns and strange maths and shit or just raw power to noodling around, but whatever, sometimes it's rad. to each his own, rock for the stoned.
@MEXICANOcomeCACA
Geezer Butler was never a better Bass player, nor 1/2 as versatile a musician, nor 1/2 as accomplished a writer as JPJ. Further, Pino Palladino, Les Claypool, and Stu Hamm are the best living bassists on the planet. I'll even dust off Billy Sheehan and put him on that list.
@MakkalTK
Of course you don't have to play "a lot of notes" to be a good guitarist. Hendrix and SRV could do more with one note than most did in their careers. Next point...Josh Home is NOT a good guitarist. His phrasing, vibrato, and attack are about as memorable as taking a piss.
decent, but I think the sabbath version is still better by a long way. nobody can out-sabbath sabbath. the riffs sound good, but the drumming here is vastly inferior to bill ward, and I'm not even referring to the silly conga part. and this song needs the creepy ozzy wail. period.
Awww yeah!! K-k-k-kyuss doing a right decent take on this Sabbath gem. I believe I'm-a listen to SLEEP's version of Snowblind next...
