Scott Lucas is the vocalist/multi-instrumental mastermind of the group, and he's ably accompanied by the savage skin-pounding of compatriot Joe Daniels. Rather than resort to endless multi-tracking to fill out the sound of PACK UP THE CATS, Local H keeps it basic, relying on the kind of primal guitar riffs and drum beats that have been the heart of rock & roll since time immemorial. One of the band's most valuable assets is a wacky sense of humor, which keeps their gonzo, slash-and-burn approach sounding fresh throughout the album. The band blends broad, '70s-style sounds with a more modern lo-fi aesthetic to achieve an idiosyncratic but immediately infectious sound.
Editorial Reviews...Equal parts sardonic brat...realist...and dreamer...vocalist Scott Lucas also cranks out the best crunchy guitar licks since Cheap Trick's heyday. - Rating: A-Entertainment Weekly (19980904)Ranked #20 on Spin's list of Top 20 Albums of '98.Spin (19990101)3.5 Stars (out of 5) - ...deserves to be remembered as an impassioned testament of the endangered alt life....It will move anyone who cares about the future of rock's stubbornest stalwarts.Rolling Stone (19980917)eBay Product ID: EPID3284894
