Release Notes:

The Kyuss family tree has grown exponentially since disbanding in 1995. And
though Josh Homme continues to be the highest profile ex-member of the seminal
desert rock group, the best Kyuss-related release of 2009 not only has nothing
to do with that crooked vulture, but doesn’t even include anyone who was
actually a member of the band! House of Broken Promises formed out of the ashes
of John Garcia’s Unida, with Eddie Plascencia doing double duty on bass and lead
vocals. The eleven tracks on Using The Useless are sensational, sleazy, and
familiar. Sure, House of Broken Promises aren’t doing anything all that
innovative, but they’re doing it a hell of a lot better than Nickelback or
Daughtry or just about any other purported “hard rock” band out there right now.
“Blister” is on par with anything off Down’s last album, while “Highway Grit”
might as well be the unofficial theme song for Sons Of Anarchy. The chorus on
“Torn” is so damn catchy and anthemic that it almost seems unfair that you’re
unlikely to ever hear it on the radio. Here’s hoping the band tours in 2010 and
raises their profile a bit more. Using The Useless is a fucking diamond in the
rough.
