(1) Stockholm Syndrome is an American Rock music band formed in Athens, Georgia as a collaboration between Dave Schools of Widespread Panic and Jerry Joseph of Jerry Joseph and the Jackmormons. The two enlisted Los Angeles drummer Wally Ingram, San Francisco guitarist Eric McFadden (who had previously worked with Keb' Mo', Primus and the P Funk All Stars), and German keyboardist Danny Dziuk. Dziuk however, has since been replaced on tour by Gov't Mule keyboardist Danny Louis.
Originally intended as a one-time studio side-project for the musicians, the band released a single album, Holy Happy Hour in 2004, and then went on a nationwide tour in support of the album. As the band allowed audience members to tape their shows, many of their concert recordings can be found at the Internet Archive.
(2) When Stockholm Syndrome played their farewell show in September 2005, at the Dutch SXSW festival in Tilburg, the place was packed. The people there witnessed a great swan song from one of Holland's most innovative hardcore bands at the time.
The band lived for only five years but managed to play a shitload of shows, not only in prestigious Dutch venues like Paradiso, Goudvishal, 013, Melkweg and Vera, but also in numerous bars and squats all over Europe, with bands such as JR Ewing, Oil, Shai Hulud, Malkovich, Restless Youth, Textures, The Hope Conspiracy, Nine, Dead Stop, and many more.
Stockholm Syndrome was founded at the end of the year 2000 and played their first show exactly one year later, as Black Death released the now sold out Godforsaken Soil 7" vinyl EP.
The follow-up, Kill The Head And The Body Will Die, was recorded six months later and when it was released the initial drummer Hans Wilders was already replaced by Martijn Konings.
With this line-up (the other founding members being Mario van Meer on vocals, Maarten van der Poll on guitar and Jeroen Koeleman on bass) they started doing shows more often and eventually recorded their third release for Black Death: History Has Taught Us Nothing, the band's debut full-length CD.
In spite of all the positive reviews this album was given, Jeroen left to form Dead Rivers and was replaced by Antal Derene. This switch completed the final line-up of SS.
As of now, things got crazy and the band played everywhere from Groningen to Barcelona to the Portuguese border and back.
Behind the wheel: former drummer Hans, sometimes even sober.
In 2004 they contributed two new songs to their only non-Black Death release, the Introducing: The New Heaviness compilation CD (which also featured bands like Trouble Loves Us and Dead Rivers), and wrote and recorded a bunch of songs which finally resulted in the Galg En Rad EP, which was released in early 2005.
Most ex-members of Stockholm Syndrome are currently active in Otis, Hospital Beds and The Unborn...
(3) Stockholm Syndrome (previously known as Love Generation), is a Swedish pop/house group. The group changed their band name to Stockholm Syndrome in summer 2012 and will soon release their first single under their new name and their independency since they broke up with Universal Music (as Love Generation)

Couldn't Get It Right Time was driftin', this rock has got to roll So I…
Empire One Who's that shadow holding me hostage I've been here for…
One In My Hand Who's that shadow holding me hostage I've been here for days…
Pretty Girl You think I'm a pretty girl pretty pretty pretty girl…
White Dirt You get your hands in it Plant your roots in it Dusty…
