Hermano

Hermano was the third band featuring former Kyuss vocalist John Garcia. He first sang for the short-lived Slo Burn, and then put together the much-respected Unida, only to see legal wranglings bring that band to a screeching halt. And thus Hermano was born, with their second album, Dare I Say, receiving several glowing reviews since its release in 2004. Somewhat predictably, Hermano really doesn't sound a lot like Kyuss save for Garcia's distinctive vocal style -- coincidentally or not, at times Dare I Say has more in common with Garcia's old bandmate's new band, Queens Of The Stone Age (face it, it's highly unlikely that Garcia or Josh Homme are going to return to that classic old Kyuss sound any time soon). So, not a lot in terms of metal, but as a straight rock album Hermano does just fine, and arguably this was Garcia's most successful post-Kyuss foray. He's now in the post-Kyuss band Vista Chino.
