@@danielcarmichael3228 yeah I pretty much love everything about these guys😆 i’ve saw them twice in this past year they’re one of the best live bands I’ve seen.
Honestly probably had a lot to do with timing. By 96-97 this style of alt rock had fallen out of favor in the mainstream. One of my favorite bands though.
If I could ever send a message to Scott Lucas...it would be you were close to Cobain in 97...he died at 27...you through journeyman skill are the best I have ever seen in my life...if I were a millionaire or had a good amount of money...I would give you a trophy that says ...Greatest Guitarist Alive!!!
I agree. Scott Lucas is a true artist and has obviously never compromised on that path. I went to a show on a whim in '96 or '97, was completely gobsmacked by the performance, and have been a lifelong fan ever since. The guy is a legend. If I could ever get a message to Scott Lucas it would be, "Thank you for the music. It means a lot to me. And thank you for continuing to make it!"
Jeez, it almost turns into a QOTSA song when they play it.
Perfect description.
I was thinking more Fu Manchu, myself….
Homme was around for the recording of HCTZ.
Local H was before Nirvana or around the same time queens came out years later. It sounds like a local H song
Local H killing it as usual
Man I'd love a studio recording of this song. Such an incredible cover.
Heavy fucking shit. Should be on a greatest hits album. Love to hear this on my stereo system in my car.
As good a cover as I've ever heard. What a performance.
I couldn't agree more. I can't imagine anyone doing this better, Scott's vocal performance suits this song perfectly.
Local H kicks so much ass for only being a two piece. One of my favorite bands.
Local H always kills it.... and this cover proves it!
The beautiful mid range tone.
How have I not seen this until now? Scott should do this for Awesome Mixed Tape 4.
This version is awesome! I've loved local h since 1996
I love their cover of Joey
Why isn't this a single. Question Mark.
Phil Kessel sounds great here
Local H makes all things better.
this is true in my experience.
@@marklone2435 I totally agree. His choices in covers show what an amazing fan of music he is. REM, Guided By Voices, Prince, Looking Glass, now this.
@@miameramusic …and not afraid to tackle modern pop which is awesome
@@danielcarmichael3228 yeah I pretty much love everything about these guys😆 i’ve saw them twice in this past year they’re one of the best live bands I’ve seen.
Why isn't on a CD? Fucking hard as nails.
G dam that was awesome! What a great band to remind us rocks not dead!
I found this by mistake , but absolutely love it.
This is rock and roll.
And on the 8th Day, God did not rest until he created Local H!
That's cute.
This band is just so god damn great
Hey, Robert Smith from the cure called. He wants his sweater back
As much as i love Ozzy and Coal Chamber, this version wipes the floor with their cover.
So far the best cover of this song. Great job guys👌
The cover I never knew I needed
Same here!
So underrated . Going to see them tonight. 2/25/20
They were awesome. The new lp is awesome. Best this year.
Still the best this year. Lol
That's bad ass
Also sounds like a fucking nuke landing on a major city.
Hell yeah local h was a huge influence for me when I was kid. Being from the same area, that made them extra great to me.
I'm trying to get my band to cover this cover.
I just texted mine
@DragoHegemony we learned it and it killed!
I love that they're sharing the gorilla suit.
They took this cover to the MAX
This is so fucking good. Wow.
Instant like and sub! Beautiful! Loving this robust cover version 😀👍👍
Love these guys!!!!
Way better than I would have guessed
Saw these guys back around 97 or 98 and they absolutely killed it. I will never understand why they didn't catch on with people.
I have wondered the very same thing! I think they got caught up in some crap with a record label. Criminal!!!
Honestly probably had a lot to do with timing. By 96-97 this style of alt rock had fallen out of favor in the mainstream. One of my favorite bands though.
how is this so fucking good?
Best cover Ever! It Rocks!!!
That sounded really awesome. Love Local H
I’m glad I randomly decided to search for “Shock the Monkey cover”
Man!!! Love that Tone!
They did a great job with this one
I like how at the end of this Scott's reaction is, "Eh, was that alright? Maybe?" Yeah, dude. You fuckin' nailed it.
Oh my sweet jeebus this ROCKS!
Tight AF. Kind of sounds like regular guy by QOTSA
Really like this version. Very gritty! Yeah
2024👊👊👊👊👊👊👊👊
That cover put me in my cage quickly, and it did it just the way I like it, starved for more! Wahi' Valleys
Awesome!!!!
That was fantastic.
this sounds so good.
Yes
Awesome performance.
Loved it.
Fantastic interpretation! I really need to dig deeper into Local H's music
Their latest album "Lifers" is fantastic
@@morris2112 each record got better and better .....yep lifers fucking rules .....!
Way better than the original
Makes me imagine the little baby on the cover of “Nevermind” reaching for a banana instead of a dollar bill.
Worth more. Cant eat money.
Most underrated group from the 90s. Still going strong and making great music for us to enjoy.
Is "two guys" considered a "group"?
@@jukeboxzero0079 Depends on how much noise you can make.
great jam.. impressive!
Dope cover Scott.
Great tone on both
Fuck yeah.
Put this on iTunes please !!!
These guys are going ape! Awesome cover.
i like the german version of the original with Peter Hammill on backing vocals! This is effin' awesome though.
holy shit!
What the mutha!?! Sweet.
I dig it.
I appreciate this a ton.
Those shades are sick
This cover and the wang chung cover of modest mouse are my favorite of the entire series.
Y'all need more Local H
Rocked that shit!
Killed it.
Don’t you fucking mess with the monkey..😎
What a performance. The guitar tone is spectacular. The drumming is blistering. Considering the dodgy source material, minorly miraculous. Love it.
Hell F$&k yeah. !
Total bad ass 🤟🏻
that is fucking brilliant.
Hot Damm!!!
If I could ever send a message to Scott Lucas...it would be you were close to Cobain in 97...he died at 27...you through journeyman skill are the best I have ever seen in my life...if I were a millionaire or had a good amount of money...I would give you a trophy that says ...Greatest Guitarist Alive!!!
Stephan Davis I met him. He’s cool as a fan. No pun intended . Lol

There should be a point at which a cover as good as this becomes the original, and vice versa...Sorry Peter Gabriel.
I like this better than Peter's version.
Awesome
This is so fucking rad haha Love Local H
Bad Ass
Rockin' this shit hard!
awesome
Mancow was right!!!!
I actually liked that.
So punk rock
It’s not a song….it’s a fucking statement
When did Dwight Schrute start a band?
Seriously though, Local H rocks!
Cool as fuck.
Oh I get it , he’s wearing a monkey mask
Drive fast, don't crash music.
Well, Local H is a real band. No wonder it's good. Some of the acts on here are questionable to say the least.
Local H is so underrated. One of my favorite bands.
Like those Gwar people, lol.

Scott Lucas made a Peter Gabriel song good! What kind of Wizard is he?
