Local H are releasing the 'P.J. Soles' single, which finds them combining elements of their iconic alternative rock and grunge influence, featuring raw guitar riffs and energetic drumming. It’s characterized by its catchy yet gritty sound, reflective of the mid-90s rock scene. The song is taken off the Deluxe 20th Anniversary Reissue of 'Whatever Happened to P.J. Soles?', remastered from the original recordings and finally available on vinyl for the first time ever via Brutal Panda on September 13 (pre-order).

“Maybe the record’s most obvious ‘coulda-shoulda’ single," says frontman Scott Lucas on the track. "Every time I hear it, I am immediately transported to the day I wrote it. And I’m just as proud of it now as I was then.”

'Whatever Happened to P.J. Soles?', LOCAL H’s fifth studio album, was originally released in 2004. The album saw Chicago's finest rock duo move further away from the mainstream and into cult status (like the album title's namesake) with the release of their first truly independent full-length. The album contains some of the band's finest songwriting and spans across various genres, incorporating elements of hard rock, electric blues, acoustic ballads, heavy metal, and high-energy punk. A watershed high-point in a career that is about to enter its 35th year.
