Holiday Man is the second album by the American alternative rock band the Flys, released in 1998 by Trauma Records. [3] [4] The album spawned two singles, "Got You (Where I Want You)" and "She's So Huge", both of which charted on Billboard's Modern Rock Tracks chart.
The Washington Post deemed the album "a little bit hip-hop and a whole lot rock-and-roll ... This is a band that could use a new attitude as much as fresh style." [5] The Record thought that "the Flys would be wingless if it weren't for guitarist Peter Perdischizzi's inventive riffing and knack for strong melodies." [6]
AllMusic wrote that the album "succeeds on inspired performances and their willingness to experiment with the standard alt-rock songwriting formula." [2]
