Here Comes the Zoo by Local H
Here Comes the Zoo is an album by Local H, released in 2002. 1 song from it has charted on rock radio countdowns, with 1 countdown appearance in total. The biggest is “Hands on the Bible”, on 1 list with a best position of #49.
Here Comes the Zoo, Local H's fourth studio album, finally hit the shelves on March 5, 2002, through Palm Pictures, pushed back from late 2001 by the fallout of the 9/11 attacks. It was a record of firsts for the Chicago-based two-piece: their first away from Island Records, and the first with drummer Brian St. Clair, who had taken over from Joe Daniels, alongside singer and guitarist Scott Lucas.
Two guys, one enormous racket. Lucas's guitar does the work of a whole band, St. Clair pounds like he's got something to prove, and the songs snarl and seethe like they've got a grudge against the whole alt-rock business. "Hands on the Bible" is the one rock radio's countdowns grabbed. The original pressing came in a lenticular cover that flipped between Lucas and St. Clair; later printings kept only Lucas.
