Local H
Hey, Killer
Hey, Killer is the band's first full-length record with drummer Ryan Harding and their eighth studio album overall. The album will be released on CD, vinyl and digitally through G&P Records. Hey, Killer was produced by longtime Local H collaborator Andy Gerber and recorded at Steve Albini's Electrical Audio studio and Gerber's own Million Yen Studios, both in Chicago. While Local H have earned praise in the past for their catalog of clever concept albums, they are forgoing a singular theme on Hey, Killer, turning out a non-stop blast of straight-up, hooky, guitar-heavy rock songs -- each one catchier than the last. Frontman Scott Lucas credits Harding's addition to the band and a self-imposed time-crunch with the rush of inspiration that spawned Hey, Killer, which was written and recorded quickly at the end of last year. Prior to Local H, Harding spent years playing in Minneapolis bands Bruder and Left Brain Heart.
