from the band's myspace: LOCAL H TO RELEASE NEW STUDIO ALBUM ON SHOUT! FACTORY
12 ANGRY MONTHS
IN STORES MAY 13, 2008
Los Angeles, CA – Alternative rock mainstays Local H return with their seventh album on May 13, titled 12 Angry Months. The band’s debut on Shout! Factory, 12 Angry Months is Local H’s first new studio album since 2004’s Whatever Happened To P.J. Soles?
Written after the bitter end of a long-term relationship, the album chronicles a full year of post-breakup experiences. Each track on 12 Angry Months corresponds to a month, and deals with the range of emotions one encounters after love turns sour. Those emotions range from anger (“so, baby could you do me a favor? fall of the earth and i'll see you later”), to jealousy (“this is crazy, I can’t believe that you replaced me”), to acceptance (“you knew we'd never make it anyway”).
Highly regarded for their powerful sound and unique two-man lineup with Scott Lucas on vocals and guitar and Brian St. Clair on drums, Local H is known for derisive lyrics, heavy guitars and feedback, energetic live shows, and an active relationship with their fans. The band performs regularly, and will be on tour nationally in 2008.

there's a new Local H track on their official myspace. It's an actual new track, gonna be on their upcoming album. opinions? My thoughts were Eels meets Presidents? Something catchy, anyways.
Local H has posted a new cover on their Myspace page (www.myspace.com/localh i think).... it's of "Wolf Like Me" by TV on the Radio. It sounds really really good. Check it out.
Also, the guys have been playing new stuff at their shows so you should check it out.
The old H board is no more, here's a link to the new one, in case you need it. You have to re-register, but it's definitely an upgrade from the old one.
