Editorial Reviews
Product description
NEW Combo BLUWAVS CD and FLAC FILE
Amazon.com
There's a disturbing trend in the Northwest: bands are getting way over-hyped before their first full-length record (which is often mediocre and disappointing) even hits the streets. Seattle's Harvey Danger, however, deserved the buzz that their debut CD generated. Where Have All the Merrymakers Gone? was quite simply one of the best local records released in 1997. It has the pop accessibility of vocalist Sean Nelson's high-register croon (not unlike Jeremy Enigk), and the energetic and dynamic punch of a band--guitarist Jeff Lin, bassist Aaron Huffman, and drummer Evan Sult (The Rocket's assistant art director)--that has developed its chops together for more than four years. Harvey Danger have drawn all the worthwhile elements from '90s indie rock and created a sound that is at once their own, yet completely familiar. Lin's guitar is full and confident, ranging from full-on power chords to buzzing melodies, while Huffman frequently takes the leads with his fat, distorted bass humming away. Sult ably links the two with a minimum of flash and pretense. Nelson's clear-as-a-bell vocals and sardonic, clever, and frequently emotional lyrics are both the album's strongest and weakest aspects. Occasionally his verbosity overcomes the music and his almost condescending sniping becomes a little tiresome. However, these are minor complaints in the big picture, because songs like "Carlotta Valdez," "Flagpole Sitta," and "Problems and Bigger Ones" are true gems, and for a first effort, this is as close to flawless as a band can get. --Adem Tepedelen

- Reviewed in the United States on March 3, 2021Harvey Danger was a one-hit wonder of my early 20’s and without ever hearing anything other than Flagpole Sitta, I did not part with the $20 that CDs sold for at the time. Along comes Amazon music, and I end up buying the CD and actually like the song Wooly Muffler far more than Flagpole. I also bought it used for around five bucks, the equivalent of $3 when this album dropped. It’s hard to be disappointed by a used CD even if the only song that compelled me to purchase it is the only good song on the album.
- Reviewed in the United States on December 9, 2022I forgot how fun flag pole sotta was
Ove played it a 100 times and the rest of the cd is fun too
- Reviewed in the United States on January 25, 2017I first heard the single for this album (as thousands of others have) many years ago and never knew who wrote it. After finding out I immediately sourced the album it was from and purchased it. I have to say, I am legitimately stunned that other tracks from this album did not get as popular as the single, the songwriting and instrumentation is phenomenal to say the least. This album is now one of my favorites in my collection and I would happily play it anytime.
- Reviewed in the United States on November 16, 2021I bought this never hearing anything but flagpolesitta which I really liked. Actually the whole album is good. I’ve listened to it a few times already. Pleasantly surprised
- Reviewed in the United States on June 1, 2022takes one back to an era when ROCK stations weren't as rare as honest politicians
- Reviewed in the United States on August 16, 2017Harvey danger was the most under rated band of the 90's. the flagpole sitta is an awesome song. as for the rest of the albums it was excellent. I enjoy listening to this cd and never get tired of listening to it.
- Reviewed in the United States on March 30, 2022No issues. Played perfectly
- Reviewed in the United States on April 1, 2019If you want to rock out to classics like Flagpole Sitta', Private Helicopter, and Carlotta Valdez, this shiny plastic disk is the shiny plastic disk for you.

Matthew CooperReviewed in the United Kingdom on August 25, 20035.0 out of 5 stars Where Have All The Merrymakers Gone?
Look past the odd album name, and start getting your head around Harvey Danger, because this album is terrific.
Rock doesn't have to be about screaming the lyrics down the microphone or 5 minutes of head banging drumming. This album has everything. Flagpole Sitta is addictive, Problems And Bigger Ones is great, Woolly Muffler is pure genius, Private Helicopter is fantastic for sing-a-long, the list is endless. Practically every single track on this album has it's own unique tune or melody that can appeal to all fans of rock/grunge music. The lyrics are easy going, there's no drowning in screaming, this is a fantastic adrenaline pumper of album. Air guitars at the ready, it's Harvey Danger. Top notch album.

pmbearReviewed in Canada on December 25, 20245.0 out of 5 stars Great CD, great band
If you like Flagpole Sitta, this is where it's at... can't seem to find this album on any of the streamers...
MCReviewed in the United Kingdom on August 23, 20095.0 out of 5 stars Awesome debut album
I loved this CD despite being sounding a bit more raw and unexperienced compared to their next 2 albums. The tunes on this album are not as reined in and tame as the other albums. Still it has some great songs, Carlotta Veldez being a great example. A must buy for any 90's kid or Harvey Danger fan.
