August 25: Local H - Pack Up the Cats
You think the White Stripes are fresh and original? Naaahhh... Local H was doing the one guitarist, one drummer thing way before Jack and Meg White were even boyfriend and girlfriend, much less fake brother and sister/ex-wife and ex-husband. (how creepy is that, by the way?)
This is their album from '98 that got lost up in another of those great corporate shuffles at major labels and basically died on the vine. It's pretty good, though; kind of a concept album about a band that tries to sell out in order to make it out of their small town, but fails. My favorite song is "All the Kids are Right," about the worst gig ever. Check it out sometime.
