About
Happy Pills is the third studio album by Seattle post-grunge band, Candlebox. It features former Pearl Jam drummer Dave Krusen who replaced Scott Mercado in 1997. Happy Pills did not gain the success of its predecessors and would be the last Candlebox album before their hiatus in 2000. It would also be the final Candlebox album recorded for Maverick. Four of the album's tracks would be included on The Best of Candlebox in 2006. The album was produced by Ron Nevison and Candlebox. Touring for Happy Pills began only after the album's recording and release. In a 2007 interview, frontman Kevin Martin expressed regret in this proce, stating that the songs have been able to mature through the following years of live performance. The band's concert schedule would face numerous defect. In mid 1998, Martin suffered a burst blood vessel in his throat, forcing the band to cancel some show. Months later, they were asked to join Aerosmith on the 9th leg of their Nine Lives Tour in December. Krusen departed from Candlebox in January 1999 and was replaced by Shannon Larkin of Ugly Kid Joe. Bardi Martin also left for college and was replaced by Rob Redick, formerly of Dig. .
