Local H - High-Fiving MF

[TripodGRANNE]

Every other Vevo video sensors out swearing but they let Local H slide

[paragonclassic]

i like their song anyway.

[goford90]

Such a great band!!!!! Spoon glad I found them

[hardmous]

@goford90 I'm spoon glad for ya!

[parksevan09]

Does anyone have suggestions for songs that have the same type of guitar? It's just this really powerful, raw sound that rips, makes my midranges sound incredible. Thanks for any input, I'm surprised by the low view count...

[SirGoodFella]

And who says VEVO censors everything

[fahrer4184]

Whoever said this is a Nirvana ripoff is a fucking idiot. Nirvana never had any lyrics this coherent. Local H is easily the most underrated band of the 90s.

Oh, and 1 person even named his grand-prize monster truck.

[TheBeeWaa]

Amazing af. Love Local H so fucking much <3

[DaHotFoots]

Dudes, Lucas was the shit...I don't think his self-effacing cranky ass realised it...how good he could have been beyond what he already was.

Thanks for your energy and musical balls, Scott.

[cflo323]

these guys are just awesome. funny video btw

[6789drummerboy]

really angry song. love it.

[Chewbaca18]

If they were a two piece band, then who played bass at concerts?

[tdog52436]

@Chewbaca18 Matt Garcia did from 1990-93, but after he left, no one.

[pentagonoenllamas]

@Chewbaca18 Scott Lucas plays with both a guitar and a bass rig at the same time and uses a pitch shifter pedal in the signal that goes into the bass amp.

[yeshallbeasgodssinge]

Local H gives me eargasm's all the time

[Jagged6913]

holy. shit. An uncensored Vevo video.

[goford90]

This song is genius!!!!

[PhoeFira]

Chicago FTW! Produced and is still producing some badass bands.

[CapnCheezburger]

I want to walk around school just blasting this song at full volume. I don't know why, but I really do.

[lazrpo]

However he got that guitar tone... I don't know how he got it... but it sounds like I'm being stomped into the fucking ground by it. It's fucking amazing.

[psycho826]

@lazrpo he put a bass pickup on his guitar

[lazrpo]

@psycho826 That doesn't explain his guitar tone, though. He records with an actual bass guitar for the album.

[psycho826]

@lazrpo i see

[icthruyounow]

Oh my god I just heard "motherfucker",didn't I ?! Hey vevo now I'm gonna go around raping mothers and guess what,it's your fault

[TheJasongrodsky]

@icthruyounow Me too! Because every word I hear I must imitate! Rock is so evil! I must worship satan.

[MzMeanE]

They's badass...damned shame they didn't get much notice back 'n the day; for a 2-man band, the sound is huuuuuuuuuge!!!

[Zafi1988]

Dwste magkes dwste!!!!!!are auth ine musici fucking yeeeaaaahhhhhh

[deviantcock]

im sorry to admit it but its true. i went to a creed concert. but it was because local h was opening. i swear i left after their set at the rose garden was over.

[freddygotfingered23]

I love how vevo has this song uncensored, and yet every other video they have is pretty much censored. lol

[prestigeWORLWHY]

Grunge!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[666streetskater]

I saw these guys at Jaycee Fest and they signed my guitar and gave me a free shirt

[theclickbeetles]

In 1989, my band The Steppingstones played in a battle of the bands in Waukegan with Local H at the "Scoop The Loop" festival. We both lost to a classic rock cover band.

[TheBluntedKid]

You high fiving mother fucker!!!!!!! #chicagorocks

[supermonkeyman12]

aww no way, he's wearing a pixies shirt :D

[Gr8estStory]

@supermonkeyman12

that's actually a RUSH shirt...but that's pretty cool too...unexpected

[supermonkeyman12]

@Gr8estStory oh, thats embarrasing, oh well thx man still cool i guess

[ballsrotten1]

How the fuck are there less then 1000 views?

[jughfreind]

@ballsrotten1 people are stupid, that's all.

[DaHotFoots]

@ballsrotten1

totally agree on both fronts: this duo lays Stripes to waste

poor viewer turnout?! Thank Spears, Gaga, homo-thugging rappers and the leper suitors and promoters who formed the new American Hijacked Music Industry

[indieindy]

@ballsrotten1 16,662 views later, it's still a top comment, awesome!

[tdog52436]

Before the White Stripes, long before the Black Keys, Local H was kicking *ss as the best 2-man hard rock band I've ever heard.

[iLLMiLLz978]

@tdog52436 I remember bac in early '96 when this trak was gettin some good local radio play and some MTV shine this was the sound i was searchin for!!!! THey 2 me our in a category of URBAN DANCE SQUAD ORANGE 9MM and RAGE!!!

[SodaPopDumb]

@tdog52436 Before? I think still Local H is the best 2-man hard rock band there is!

[tdog52436]

@SodaPopDumb Me too! High-Five!

[SodaPopDumb]

@tdog52436 Your High-Fiveing MF :D Hi5 :D

[dummytree]

@tdog52436 Thanks for pointing that out. This is what I've been saying all the time.

[oObadphishOo]

@tdog52436 im sorry but is this not a complete rip off nirvana. with out as clever lyrics.

[GaryFlores]

@oObadphishOo

your one of those people that thinks good bands revolve around Nirvana because they were around the same time Nirvana was, Don't get me wrong, I grew up on Nirvana but I also grew up on other music. This isn't close to being a rip off of Nirvana, Local H is it's own unique band, A 2 piece band Local H goes in their own direction not giving a fuck what people like you think. The cool thing about Local H... I can still go see them Live to this day. Unlike Nirvana...

[oObadphishOo]

@GaryFlores i dont know how you got that from my comment but im not one of those ppl. i respectivley asked a question and you turned me into a hater. freal, i dont like nirvana that much, i think cobains drug use was considered poetry but atleast morrison had meaning behind his lyrics. and a 2 peice, not that special. but oh they recorded with a bass so.. technically not two peice. reason you dont go see nirvana, cause cobains dead. assumin shit can get ya in ta trouble you HI 5IN MoFo haha

[hardmous]

@tdog52436 How are those bands even related? White Stripes and Black Keys are awesome!

[nirvanafreak9999]

@hardmous it's just the mere fact that they all are 2 piece bands.

[hardmous]

@nirvanafreak9999 that has nothing to do with the style or sound of their songs.

[hardmous]

@hardmous How many four piece bands do you compare to four piece bands? Gimme a break.

[SodaPopDumb]

@tdog52436 imo, Local H is more bad ass than those two

[MrIndestructible43]

@SodaPopDumb Exactly, Local H just flat out kicks ass.

[FooFightersNirvana1]

hell yeah
