Sticker Happy is the Eraserheads' fifth album, released by Sony BMG Music Philippines Inc. (formerly BMG Records Pilipinas, Inc.) in 1997. At the time, the album cover courted a healthy amount of controversy as to the identity of the nude woman playing an upright piano in the middle of a field (later revealed to be then-Channel [V] VJ Joey Mead).

Musically, the album is heavier as the band brought to the fore various guitar effects purchased during their New York visit. Although still retaining the signature "E-Heads" sound, 'Sticker Happy' is very much influenced by mid-90s techno and also featured a heavy amount of sampling, most notable on the tracks "Maalalahanin", "Downtown" and "Everything They Say".

Trivia

• The name of the album is most likely a spoof of the word "trigger-happy." It can be noticed that the band's piano has lots of stickers on it as well. It was also the product of a nation-wide contest that the band organized in mid-1997.
• "Tapsilogue" is a wordplay of Epilogue and Tapsilog. In the album, however, Ely gives a kind of message which parodies the outcome of every Sesame Street episode.
• Raimund Marasigan joked about Sandwich's Five on the Floor album as "Sticker Happy" because it included free stickers in the packaging.
• The actual piano featured in the album packaging was burned by Ely Buendia during the band's legendary Final Set, as if to say that they have all moved on; hence the burning of the iconic piano and all the memories associated with being the Eraserheads.
• The CD version features an image of a small dog that's embedded on both the CD and inside the case. This image isn't seen in the cassette tape version.
