ClapClapClapClap finaly they are inn the Founders of stoner metal, which were slowly developed by Soundgarden but were defiend by Kyuss by their slow, moody sludgy sound which was layered in mud.

Kyuss was added yesterday by Colt.  Might have been in the doom metal section?  Not sure, but I know that they were added yesterday.
Here is the link http://www.metalmusicarchives.com/kyuss.aspx

"stoner/doom metal" would be a solution to the problem.

but since there is none Stoner section yet then Alternative (or Doom ) metal is their most logical spot.

I feel Soundgarden and Kyuss have some similaritys, Soundgarden influenced Kyuss in a great deal. I have also read that Soundgarden can be also regarded as a pioneer to Stoner metal in some degree.

So why do you want them classified "alternative" ?
They have more in common with doom than alternative, that to my understanding gathers funk metal, alternative rock, noise rock and groove metal bands.

I'm happy to consider them. Do we add QotSA too? I love them, but we're heading toward a grey zone.

I'M STILL WAITING,  now ive changed the topic on the third attempt to add them here since Stoner Metal is not here yet i think Alternative metal is the most logical step so far.

AND YES THEY ARE METAL Angry

+1, Like i said before, bands should be able to be in more categories at once

If we include Stoner Metal as a subgenre, that is where Kyuss should fall. That is the same classification you would find for them on most any metal site, as well as on wikipedia.

If there is no stoner as a subgenre, then traditional metal will be the next in line
