Happy Birthday to Me (album)

Happy Birthday to Me is the third album by the American pop punk band the Muffs. It was released in 1997 on Reprise Records.

Happy Birthday to Me was vocalist/guitarist Kim Shattuck's favorite Muffs album.

Critical reception

The Washington Post wrote that "the band's most convincing songs are designed for those with short attention spans and bad attitudes: Shattuck's guitar snarls, she gripes and then they're over." The Los Angeles Times called the songs "concise, crisply played and melodic." Salon wrote that the album "takes the listener on a blissful, blistering 45-minute joyride."
