he forgets the lyrics in the 2nd verse, but i always suspected local H were big fans. cool to see they cover the "less known about" Nirvana songs. they do chicago proud :)
I love the balls shown by covering this song. Local H was called a Nirvana clone (maybe in look, but their sound was very much different). Most bands in that situation would have distanced themselves from said band, but these guys decided "screw that, let's play a song from Nirvana, and kick ass while doing it. F*** what people think."
i know this comment is 3 years old, but... you can see the p-bass pickup pretty clearly at around 2:33 and a few seconds after that. it's mounted at an angle to pickup sound from the low E and A strings only. he sends that signal through a separate jack into an octave pedal, and then into a bass amp.
Because there are only two guys in the band. If you notice, when hes doing the solo part, he still has the bassline going because his guitar plays both. And who wants a cover that sounds the exact same as the original anyways? Covers gotta be unique.
"bass pickups dont make the pitch of a note lower..." No, that's what his octave pedal is for. Everyone knows this... he's been using it forever. Hate to break it to you but you're not the keeper of some secret knowledge. "and he doesnt have bass pickups in his guitar." Well, that depends on which guitar you're talking about... some of his new ones don't have a bass pickup but his older ones have half a split-coil p-bass pickup in them (there's tons of pictures of them online).
if you cant tell he isnt playing the bass part then you must not be paying attention. bass pickups dont make the pitch of a note lower, and he doesnt have bass pickups in his guitar.
this is a little too old to keep arguing, but whatever. the falconplyr16 had it right. what everone else was arguing was that if he put a bass pickup in his guitar (like from a P bass or something), suddenly his lines would be an octave down. it doesnt work that way.
he dosnt play the guitar wrong in the verses if he did play it there wud be no bass and hes playing the bass in the verses theres only one guitarist and a drummer. Great cover
ever thought that there might be someone playing bass that you can't see on stage and that he might be running a stereo rig for a different reason? tbh most of the time power chords for a bass line sounds like shit and i doubt he would be running a stereo rig just for the song to have a bass line that is octave down power chords instead of a single note type thing. i do know what you are saying though, i have seen it too.
Do you know how bass and guitar pickups work? The pickups don't determine the pitch of the notes that are played. The pickups just act as a transducer for strings that turns the mechanical vibration into an electronic signal. Saying that him having bass pickups in his guitar would allow him to play the bass line is quite ignorant.
This is a good cover, for some odd reason the drummer bugs me. I liked the other guy. Otep did a cover of this song too, it's good too. I like this cover, originals are always the best though.
I love local H and the cover was great. But nowhere near the energy of Nirvana in this performance. Nirvana was great because Kurt went all out. It felt like Scott was holding back. Maybe it was the crowd or something but he didn't seem too into it.
@wilrecar77 You can get an octave pedal, dude. The bass pickup is there to pick up the low end of the lowest string, not to make it an octave lower... And as for the bass pickup in the guitar, what the hell is that at 2:36 inbetween his bridge pickup and the bridge? A harmonica? Don't be stupid...

One of my favorite bands playing one of my other favorite bands. cool shit.

I got my nose broke at this show, no regrets
I saw Local H at summerfeast in Wisonsin last year, and they kicked ass, one of my favorite bands of all time. They do some great nirvana covers.

Joe left for nine years and wanted back in but Scott is like "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"
Marsha got thrashed.
wow these guys earned my respect
no one can sound like Kurt you have to accept that but for a cover
they are the best
lovely cover :)
i like the drummer's style. hits the drums hard like mr. grohl.
Because there are only two guys in the band. If you notice, when hes doing the solo part, he still has the bassline going because his guitar plays both. And who wants a cover that sounds the exact same as the original anyways? Covers gotta be unique.
@Rymylys he was pushing 40 around here. most people suck at screaming past 30
Scott is a good voice and a great ear for music.
Crammer Jack Small world man 😂😂😂
A dream has come true!
This is a friggin awesome cover!
@wilrecar77 actually, it's bass pickups in the guitar linked to another whole output, into an octave pedal, into a bass amp. It works magnificently.
Brian St Clair is drummer,, he has been in my home. many times.
good cover! i love both bands
Wow, thank you. That was very insightful
amazing°°°°°°°°°°°°
best breed cover i ever heard
kurt went all out when he wasnt strung all out.
Oh my god this is fucking incredible, I just saw them a couple weeks ago and they are an amazing band
TURN THE MIC UP!
"bass pickups dont make the pitch of a note lower..."
No, that's what his octave pedal is for. Everyone knows this... he's been using it forever. Hate to break it to you but you're not the keeper of some secret knowledge.

this is so cool!!! a bass pickup on a guitar??? that is so fucking cool!
They shoulda turned his mic up lmao
But this is a very good cover!
I'd heard people talk about them- so this is my first time checking them out.
They did rather awesome with this song...
sick!
pretty good!
really pleasant
dude thats just because oteps recorded in a studio, with all the magic that ensues there
they still play??i'd love to bring em to Puerto Rico to play my birthday marty
well they believe it because its true. you can hear the bass in it when it gets to the "solo" part.
if you cant tell he isnt playing the bass part then you must not be paying attention. bass pickups dont make the pitch of a note lower, and he doesnt have bass pickups in his guitar.
again, Scott, you are great! Drums are a bit off but wth... great cover!
hes been out since like, '98.
this is a little too old to keep arguing, but whatever. the falconplyr16 had it right. what everone else was arguing was that if he put a bass pickup in his guitar (like from a P bass or something), suddenly his lines would be an octave down. it doesnt work that way.
he dosnt play the guitar wrong in the verses if he did play it there wud be no bass and hes playing the bass in the verses theres only one guitarist and a drummer. Great cover
this is way better than puddle of mudd.
The old drummer, Joe, left the group after Pack Up the cats.
Scott's a badass. Seether blows. You people piss me off!
do u know if they will be playing in el pasotx
i wish scott would have played the right riff for the verses besides that it was a good cover
Bravo.
how does he play both, i know he does, but how, does he have a pedal that does a bass sound for the root of each note, or ...
Sooooo Seether Does covers of Nirvana too.... Does that make them a cover band? i mean hell nirvana did covers too...
I've seen nirvana do worst on this song lol... And Nirvana is my Fav band... Good cover
That's the truth.
ever thought that there might be someone playing bass that you can't see on stage and that he might be running a stereo rig for a different reason? tbh most of the time power chords for a bass line sounds like shit and i doubt he would be running a stereo rig just for the song to have a bass line that is octave down power chords instead of a single note type thing. i do know what you are saying though, i have seen it too.
Or hit the drums hard like John Bonham, the original beast on the drums.

If you like local h try this band caled Another drowning day
FUCKING SWEEEETT!!!1!
This is a good cover, for some odd reason the drummer bugs me. I liked the other guy. Otep did a cover of this song too, it's good too. I like this cover, originals are always the best though.
listen to rock n roll professionals by them. the man can scream.
I love local H and the cover was great. But nowhere near the energy of Nirvana in this performance. Nirvana was great because Kurt went all out. It felt like Scott was holding back. Maybe it was the crowd or something but he didn't seem too into it.
I don't see why they'd hide a bassist when they bring out third members to "cheat" all the time, like Gabe does.
haha i agree
What happened to the black drummer?
you are wrong, have you heard local h's toxic? or cake's i will survive? those are damn better than the original
then why would you sart with a video of them doing a cover?
These guys are good but no way are they better then Nirvana.
@wilrecar77 You can get an octave pedal, dude. The bass pickup is there to pick up the low end of the lowest string, not to make it an octave lower...
And as for the bass pickup in the guitar, what the hell is that at 2:36 inbetween his bridge pickup and the bridge? A harmonica?
Don't be stupid...
shit whos that drummer?
Brian St Clair is drummer know him very well in person. Been in my home.
Lmfao
I like Local H, but this kind of blows
