THANKS TO PABLO FOR THE AWESOME BANNER!
Thanks to everyone who has added us and sent comments and emails!
The Happy Happyists are the byproduct of an unhealthy interest in videogames, experimental music, and metal, coupled with extreme juvenility and anachronistic displacement. Songs range from RPG-inspired originals and video game covers, to metal, punk, noise, and experimental. These sounds are coupled with the inspiration of a better time when people wore plaid shirts while playing NES/SNES. If you were born after 1985, your life is less meaningful.
Unlike many of those who influence us, we are not virtuosos. Akin to the early study of intelligence and its application to eugenics programs, the works of musical geniuses have mistakenly brought about the should-have-been-aborted fetus that is the Happy Happyists.
check this page often for updates, new songs, etc.
Past set lists, and in the future, links to download live recordings, will be available in our blog.
