Chicago two-piece hard rockers Local H (who last year toured with Failure) are heading out on tour for the 20th anniversary of their album As Good as Dead (featuring their hit “Bound for the Floor“), which they’ll be playing in full for the duration of the tour.

They’ll kick things off with two shows in their hometown before making their way to NYC for a show at Bowery Ballroom on May 3. Tickets for that show go on AmEx presale Wednesday (2/24) and on sale to the general public Friday (2/26).

As Good as Dead is being repressed on vinyl this year, a gatefold, double-disc set on colored wax. That’s out April 16. (Pre-orders are available.) It comes with a bunch of digital bonus tracks, too, including “Fritz’s Corner (Karaoke Demo)” which you can stream, via Vanyaland, below. All dates are listed, along with a stream of As Good As Dead, below.
