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. - Gary Suarez
