"Bound for the Floor" is a single by alternative rock duo Local H, from their 1996 album, As Good as Dead. It is the band's most popular single, still finding radio circulation to this day, and serves as a minor staple of the post grunge era.
The song's angst driven lyrics deal with a lack of confidence and frustration which is strongly reflected in the overall performance. It opens with a guitar riff, reminiscent of Nirvana or Silverchair, that serves as a hallmark of the song. The chorus starts with relatively relaxed vocals but eventually builds into shouting. The occasional delivery of cracked vocals further establishes the song's a raw, agitated, and youthful feel.
A music video was produced for "Bound for the Floor," which features a performance by the band strung with shots of a school building.
