Album Description

Holy Happy Hour, the debut album from Stockholm Syndrome is a bracing and revelatory intersection of captivating songs, deep grooves and virtuosic playing that marks the arrival of an important new band in no uncertain terms. This is genre-transcending music…scratch that-it's genre-shredding music, the product of gifted, attuned and adventurous artists pushing each other past the normal limits to a place that is rarely visited. Given the group's back-story, it wouldn't be inaccurate to state that the five band members were as stunned by what they had collectively summoned up as listeners will be when they hear it.

5 out of 5 stars Score this rocker! You deserve the pleasure!!.......2007-04-03

Stockholm Syndrome, during their far too brief life span in 2004, was one of those rare "super groups" made up of members of other tight bands and studio musicians who simply gel awesomely. Their songs talk about reality, beautiful and ugly as it gets, and they stay diversified without making it seem like they are going out of their way to play a variety of styles. The tunes, "Empire One", "White Dirt", "Shining Path", and the remake of the Climax Blues Band hit "Couldn't Get It Right" alone is easily worth what is being asked for a used or new copy of this fantastic disc. There is only one tune I consider a 'bump on a log' on the disc, and my wife likes that one too. If you like top notch musicians getting together and jamming, you will love this disc. Pick it up, you deserve it! Also, be on the look out for any of the live material that shows up now and then, as that is where the band truly shines. Stockholm Syndrome got together in 2007 to play a bennefit show for percussion member Wally Ingram, and it kicked!!

I can't ever figure out where in the world the music industry's head is at when something like this can come along and NOTHING gets said about it. Give it a listen, better yet if you ever get a chance to go see them live and you will know of what I speak.

5 out of 5 stars Simply Awesome!.......2006-01-30

Knowing that it was Jerry Joseph and Dave Schools, I had a feeling this was going to be good. But, the reality did not prepare me for the experience of this ensemble. This is one of the MUST HAVE CD's for anyone into the alternative=jam band=rock sounds.

SIMPLY AWESOME BADASSERY!

5 out of 5 stars YOU HAVE TO SEE THIS BAND LIVE!!! .......2004-08-08

i saw these guys a few weeks ago in winston-salem, nc... they are INCREDIBLE! my brother and i are still talking about this show! i think everyone else did a great job of describing the sound... buy the album, its great, but dont miss a chance to see their live act.

5 out of 5 stars Album rock is back!!!.......2004-08-05

Trying to explain the sound produced by Stockholm Syndrome is like trying to morph the Arcangels, Rolling Stones, Bob Marley, Phish, Climax Blues Band, and Soundgarden with the undeniable songwriting capabilities of Jerry Joseph and the aura of Dave Schools' bottom end. Wally Ingram is an absolutely amazing drummer, and Eric McFadden's chops are one to marvel at. Danny Dziuk blends in an almost spacy key presence that is like a layer or incandescent paint over the rest of the music. This rivals great albums of our time like Nirvana Nevermind, Led Zeppelin 4, Rolling Stones Exile on Main St., etc.
