Summary

The Hey, Killer album by Local H touches on themes of religion, blues, and death across its 11 songs. Recorded in 2015, it was drummer Ryan Harding's first album with the band. The album artwork depicts a sinister figure flashing devil horns, representing a cross between serial killer Richard Ramirez and a character from the Ghost World comic. The songs range from hard-rocking, Metallica-esque riffs to more introspective tracks reflecting on tragedy and the meaning of life.
