My band got to open for Local H in 2004 at the Cleveland Music Festival. It was the night before my birthday I've been a Local H fan since the first album. After the show I talked to Scott and we did a bunch of shots together for my birthday..Thanks Scott..Local H rules..I first met Scott and Brian in 2001 after a show at Peabodys in Cleveland class act all the way..
i intend to see these two fellas perform again and I bet you will be there and we can chat about what i know about this song they cover! I agree with You! HOWLIN FOREVER! if ya dig in to the UA-cam stuff on the interweb, You might find a cover of 25 or 6 to 4 by chicago...or...not sure You will find a recording of it...but...i am pretty sure there was an attempty at RUSH 2112. Successful attempt, no doubt. i have listened to tons of music and these two have BLOWN me away! Incredible lyrics for original compositions. AND...I think He is the best guitar player I have ever seen...and Ryan reminds me of Matt Abts who is the guy that those two fellas left the Allman Brothers to start that Gov't Mule thing. LOCAL H is the tightest band I have ever heard. and just because there are only two of them doesnt mean it is easy to keep it together like that! Exceptional!
@@JT-91 not tone def just just 13 others are also in this buissness and knows what realy gos in to it compaird to an original hit basically riding the wave we call it
i know Im asking randomly but does anyone know a method to log back into an Instagram account? I somehow lost my login password. I appreciate any tips you can offer me.
@@mapwezt I just always love their choices in covers! REM, Guided By Voices, Looking Glass, Prince, and TV on the Radio, it just shows what a diverse love of music they have.
Me too. What an awesome band! I Saw them open for Soul Asylum last month, they did this, they also covered Looking Glass, Prince & my favorite, Guided By Voices. I'm going to see them again at the end of this month.
What a great year, 1997. Got to hang out with an unknown Myles Kennedy at the time in the crowd of the Local H show at House of Blues in Orlando FL. Myles opened for them with his original band The Mayfield Four. After TM4 was done he came into the crowd and watched Local H with everybody else. It was awesome seeing him being just a fan
The best cover of this song out there. We did a cover ourselves (you can find the vid on our channel) trying to emulate both TV's multiple layers of sound and the straightforward rock distortion of this one.
Say, say, my playmate Won't you lay your hands on me? Mirror my malady Transfer my tragedy Got a curse I cannot lift Shines when the sunset shifts When the moon is round and full Gotta bust that box, gotta gut that fish My mind's aflame We could jet in a stolen car But I bet we wouldn't get too far 'Fore the transformation takes And bloodlust tanks and crave gets slaked My mind has changed My body's frame but God, I like it My heart's aflame My body's strained but God, I like it Charge me your day rate I'll turn you out in kind When the moon is round and full Gonna teach you tricks that'll blow your mongrel mind Baby doll, I'll recognize You're a hideous thing inside If ever there were a lucky kind It's you, you, you, you I know it's strange another way to get to know you You'll never know unless we go, so let me show you I know it's strange another way to get to know you We've got till noon, here comes the moon So let it show you, show you now Dream me, oh dreamer, down to the floor Open your arms and let them weave on yours Feel me, completer, down to my core Open your heart and let it bleed on yours Feeding on fever, down on all fours Show you what all that howl is for Hey, hey, my playmate Let me lay waste to thee Burned down their hanging trees It's hot here, hot here, hot here, hot here We're howling forever, oh, oh Got a curse we cannot lift Shines when the sunshine shifts We're howling forever, oh, oh There's a cure that comes with a kiss The bite that binds, the gift that gives We're howling forever, oh, oh Now that we got gone for good Writhing under your riding hood We're howling forever, oh, oh Tell your grandma and your mama too It's true, true, true We're howling forever, oh, oh (x3) We're howling forever (x5) We're howling (x8) We're howling forever (x2) We're howling We're howling forever (x3)
@samurai5625 When I listen to the radio and they play 90s music I often find myself at a loss. I love NIN, Tool, and Pearl Jam. And then you get the Nirvana fans. But how often do you hear Local H? Or Stabbing Westward, Filter, Sponge, Faith No More, Our Lady Peace... or any of the other really great bands that seem to have been forgotten in such a short time?
I don't think its as good as the original, but I REALLY dig it, and its good to hear Local H still sounding great, loved them back in the 90s when I was growing up (born in the 80s). I'm gonna play that again!
I enjoy this one as much as the original. I don't care about comparing them, to me they are each worthwhile performances in their own right. So what's the use in debating over which is "better"?
I remember back in the day in Aurora Illinois my brother bringing me the CD after we had listened to much grunge and and him sayin they r from champagne and I said really?
Local H is probably one of my favorite bands ever, but I'll admit that I like the original better. Like someone else said, the original just evokes more emotion. That being said, I wouldn't even know the original without Local H's cover.
That guitar at around 0:54 is fucking awesome. I remember having those little green stickers with the angry faces all over the telephone in my kitchen years ago. ESP is a great company. The Tossers rock. Local H is awesome. I love that guitar so fucking much, I'd have sex with it.... Oh, this cover is really good too. I prefer it to the original, but I heard it first, so ah well.
@samurai5625 its not that they are overlooked and underrated, they are just a band that stays true to their roots. rather than get mad famous and sell out enourmous stadiums, they would rather to cheap and free shows around the local chicago area because they stay true to their fans. they dont sell-out for the money. they do it for the experience and for the bands. a true band that embraces the real meaning of music. not something you see nowadays. local h is the best band ever for that.
According to wikipedia, the single: Wolf Like Me was released by TVOTR in 2006. This youtube post predates that by several years. Just curious if anyone has a solid breakdown of the timeline.
Number one, this was released 2009. Number two, UA-cam went online in 2005 which is one year before tvotr's release, not several so what the hell are you talking about?
I like Local H better as a band then TV on the Radio, but I must say I like the original a lot better. This just feels tame in comparison....less feeling.
The vocal on the original is so spooky and evocative of the lyricis. Dude's voice on this is so thin by comparison. Not knocking them, they were just covering a song they like. I'm addressing your "better than the original" comment. I love "Bound For The Floor," btw.

Kickass
what was your bands name?
They've had a hell of a rise and ride!!! Opening the doors for multiple bands!!
28 years of awesomeness!!!
I don't think this song was even in their Playlist at this point in time.
Sounds like a bunch of bullshit.
This is the single best cover of one of the best rock songs in history. You’re legends!
Tell Local H they would appreciate it.
@@stevefirth2013 started following them like 4 months ago. Their style and draft songs are actually very very good

@Bronson Titus Instablaster ;)
I've listen to local H everyday for 18 years now.helped me with my alcohol addiction.thanks guys
6 years not a single drop
💪🤴💪🤴💪
Withdraws and numbness couldn't keep local h for pushing forward❤
Can't stop listening to this song. Don't Care What version it's just a great song
Its a great song no matter what kind of flow it has.
@@Hondurez7 000
Yep.

Huge tv on the radio fan but man the drums are fucking killer on this version! I’m glad they turned them up. Shit rocks!
And the drop after the bridge man! Great cover
2020 here & this cover still Kicks Massive Ass!
2023👍🏻
Wolf like me is a great fucking song!! And Local H does the best covers around. TVoTR and Local H are 2 good fucking bands man!!
I cannot stop listening.
I just heard this song for the first time only a few days ago. I am hooked and haven’t been able to turn it off.
0:50 CKY sticker. Hell yeah.
Just discovered this. Score.
Me too. What an awesome band! I Saw them open for Soul Asylum last month, they did this, they also covered Looking Glass, Prince & my favorite, Guided By Voices. I'm going to see them again at the end of this month.

I like both versions equally. hard to top the original though.
18 now....can't wait to ring in the new year with this band tonight! This is the best cover ever!
Thirty's not bad. I hope life has treated you well. Signed, random internet person.
This is so good. Best discovery ever :)
no shit!
Had never heard this studio version before, but I love when they play it live.
getting geared up for the Philly show tonight!
🎶🎶we're howling forever🎶🎶
I love this song!!! I always loved the original version, but this stripped down version hits hard! This is great!!!
Their covers are insanely good!
missed the entire show for Local H and only got to see the encore for Helmet.. redoing my night tonight in Brooklyn ;)
scott lucas is pure rock and roll genius! i have saw them atlanta four times now and it is never a bad show.... and he sells you your tshirt!!!

Spotify recommended this to me a long time ago, such a great song
I LOVE this Song ! H really did a nice job with this cover.
best cover I've heard in a while
I listen to it on repeat
Love this badass. Philadelphia USA
Stunning cover.
Wow, I've watched this like a thousand times. I love Local H.
I don't know if it's better than the original, but it's really fucking good.
It's not better. But it is good.
Fucking coming out into ring busting ass mode …the rage this song has that
Heard this for the first time on a ufc short clip of stipe vs. stoave and been rocking to it since
this band is awesome live. they kick asss. second best band next to nirvana
This song is howling forever
Right? So perfect. I also just heard their cover of "shock the monkey", I was just totally blown away. I'm going to see them in Baltimore this month.
The Misfits influence is even more obvious in this version, very good.
Say, say, my playmate
Won't you lay your hands on me?
Mirror my malady
Transfer my tragedy
Got a curse I cannot lift
Shines when the sunset shifts
When the moon is round and full
Gotta bust that box, gotta gut that fish
My mind's aflame
We could jet in a stolen car
But I bet we wouldn't get too far
'Fore the transformation takes
And bloodlust tanks and crave gets slaked
My mind has changed
My body's frame but God, I like it
My heart's aflame
My body's strained but God, I like it
Charge me your day rate
I'll turn you out in kind
When the moon is round and full
Gonna teach you tricks that'll blow your mongrel mind
Baby doll, I'll recognize
You're a hideous thing inside
If ever there were a lucky kind
It's you, you, you, you
I know it's strange another way to get to know you
You'll never know unless we go, so let me show you
I know it's strange another way to get to know you
We've got till noon, here comes the moon
So let it show you, show you now
Dream me, oh dreamer, down to the floor
Open your arms and let them weave on yours
Feel me, completer, down to my core
Open your heart and let it bleed on yours
Feeding on fever, down on all fours
Show you what all that howl is for
Hey, hey, my playmate
Let me lay waste to thee
Burned down their hanging trees
It's hot here, hot here, hot here, hot here
We're howling forever, oh, oh
Got a curse we cannot lift
Shines when the sunshine shifts
We're howling forever, oh, oh
There's a cure that comes with a kiss
The bite that binds, the gift that gives
We're howling forever, oh, oh
Now that we got gone for good
Writhing under your riding hood
We're howling forever, oh, oh
Tell your grandma and your mama too
It's true, true, true
We're howling forever, oh, oh (x3)
We're howling forever (x5)
We're howling (x8)
We're howling forever (x2)
We're howling
We're howling forever (x3)
Love this cover. Stripped down and raw!
Can definitely enjoy this cover
I like this one. Cool to hear this from a band I'd always admired
Unreal song, unreal cover of it too. Fkn yeah
THIS IS FUCKING AWESOME !!!!!!!
I LOVE Anna Calvi, she's excllent but this is EQUALLY utterly epic ! 😎👌
Top marks folks 😎🤩😎🤩😎🤩😎🤩😎
DAMN YEAH!
thanks for uploading this. i like this "original" version better than the one on Awesome Mix Tape #1 or whatever the hell it's called.
Perfect rock song.
Excellent
Local H never disappoints! Come back to the Md. D.C. area guys
About to see them on May 26 Los Angeles
I was also there!
Favorite song right now
Very very nice.
Both versions are great (original is the goat so you gotta give it to that one). This one makes me wanna skateboard or go surfing. Energy is sick!
My band cover this cover, thanks for the music guys.

Zombie eaters is one 9f my favorite songs!
AWESOME.
What a bunch of fanboys.
"You've got no taste in music and you really love our band."- Local H
Good cover, and I usually hate covers.
I don't think its as good as the original, but I REALLY dig it, and its good to hear Local H still sounding great, loved them back in the 90s when I was growing up (born in the 80s). I'm gonna play that again!

big facts

Zion, IL not Champaign
the definitive version of this song is TVotR’s live performance on _Letterman_ 👌
amazing
This song rocks hard as f*ck, and so does Local H!!!!!
TV on the radio.
Getting back to work and paying shit off!! Not today DEBT 😆
Nice cover
Local H is probably one of my favorite bands ever, but I'll admit that I like the original better. Like someone else said, the original just evokes more emotion.

Love Local H in any version.
So fucking sick... never gets old!
@kargath101 that was beautiful man.
bound to the floor guys
Agreed, even better
this song is just fucking amazing, period.
Fkin awesome! thanks
Better than the og
I prefer it to the original as well. Really excellent cover.
Can't say which one is better but it's a damn good song
Better than the original!
WHOOOOOOOOOO
His custom guitars are so gnarley 🍻
This is awesome. How do I download it?

probably the best cover i've heard of this....now cover "Condition Oakland" by Jawbreaker, and I'll be fucking impressed.
The Holbein Hoax version is better than this, but the original one remains the best ever
One of northern Illinois' finest

@deathviautube And Ham Fisted.. Amazing albums..
Gabe, he's a longtime friend of Scott's and helps run their shows.
The punk band wolf face does the best version of this song.
From 2:11 to the end - best part imo :)
I like Local H better as a band then TV on the Radio, but I must say I like the original a lot better. This just feels tame in comparison....less feeling.
Same same. The original is a more complex/layered production too.
Like this one too tho.
yea 6 people vs. 2 people tool
the original has a whole layer of guitar that local H lacks because they're only two people
The vocal on the original is so spooky and evocative of the lyricis. Dude's voice on this is so thin by comparison. Not knocking them, they were just covering a song they like. I'm addressing your "better than the original" comment. I love "Bound For The Floor," btw.
@rally240 No, TV On The Radio is the original. You can just look these things up.
Nice. Better then the original
@samurai5625 just a question... does jack white of the white stripes have bass pickups in his guitar? like in seven nation army?

Down to my core
Open my heart and let it
Bleed onto yours
Feeding on fever
Down all fours
Show you what all that
Howl is for
Hey, hey, my playmate
Let me lay waste to thee
Burned down their hanging trees
It's hot here, hot here, hot here, hot here
Got a curse we cannot lift
Shines when the sunshine shifts
There's a curse comes with a kiss
The bite that binds the gift that gives
Now that we got gone for good
