On the heels of releasing Local H’s As Good As Dead as a 180g for the record’s 20th anniversary… the old-school punk band will go on tour to remind us why the record was a breakthrough album for them.
As Good As Dead was the band’s second full-length album, produced by Steven Haigler (Quicksand, Pixies) and was originally released on April, 16, 1996 on Island Records on CD and cassette (note: no vinyl version). Singer Scott Lucas, remarked, “The question I get asked the absolute most is when are we gonna put the older records out on vinyl? Here’s the answer — in the best possible way. The package is looking pretty good and I’m ALMOST as excited as anybody to finally drop the needle on this album — on double vinyl, at last.”
