    This kicks ass. Maybe not as good as the later stuff, but still deserves a five. ROCK and ROLL!

    I love kyuss, but as a debut album this was a complete disastor.The entire album sounds like garbled Metallica.

  • All Music Guide

    Hindsight is always 20/20, but Kyuss' promising debut album, 1991's Wretch, was completely ignored by media and public. This is quite understandable, as a paltry production job fails to capture the band's earthshaking guitar rumble, and only repeated listens allow full appreciation of the band's developing songwriting skills. The album's finest moments find the band in midpace, locking onto massive grooves on "I'm Not," "Big Bikes," and the awesome "Son of a Bitch." While less impressive, they still manage to inject memorable hooks and catchy riffs into fulltilt thrashers such as "Love Has Passed Me By," "Isolation," and the especially savage "Hwy 74."
