Happiness In Self Destruction

''Happiness in Self Destruction'' is the third studio album by American rock band The Plot in You. The album was released on October 16, 2015. It is the band's first and only album released through StaySick after leaving Rise Records.

Background

The album's release was preceded by three singles, "My Old Ways", "Take Me Away", and "Dear Old Friend". A music video for "Take Me Away" was released, as well as a music video for "Time Changes Everything", released in June 2016.

Critical reception

''Happiness in Self Destruction'' received generally positive reviews. Sputnikmusic gave the album 3 out of 5, stating "''Happiness in Self Destruction'' is Landon's most mature and intensely personal record yet, and those factors work in its favor. However, it's also self-absorbed, overlong, and lacks cohesion." ''It Djents'' gave the album 9 out of 10, stating "The band is giving us fifteen songs of honest and emotional music, that shows a lot of ambition. You can clearly hear and feel the emotions and the love, that was put into this record. There are many interesting details and a lot of things to be discovered, but overall they do have a concept."
