''[[Beat Happening (album)|Beat Happening]]'' (1985), their full-length debut, was critically acclaimed, as was ''[[Jamboree (Beat Happening album)|Jamboree]]'' (1988). By the release of ''[[Dreamy (Beat Happening album)|Dreamy]]'' in 1991, Beat Happening was one of the most popular bands in the indie rock community, leading to their pivotal role in the [[International Pop Underground Convention]], which brought [[anti-corporatism|anti-corporate]] rock its earliest mainstream acceptance. Their last full-length album was 1992's ''[[You Turn Me On]]'', which represented the band breaking many of their established conventions from earlier albums, most notably on "Godsend", which runs 9 minutes and features blatant use of [[multitrack recording]]. The album was described by allmusic.com as a "masterpiece." Though never announcing a break-up and claiming at one point to still practice once a month, the members of Beat Happening have moved on to various other projects. In 2000 they released the "Angel Gone" single, their first new release in eight years.

''[[Crashing Through (album)|Crashing Through]]'', which collects all of the band's officially released music except for two of their tracks from a live cassette split with [[The Vaselines]], was released in 2002. The box set included a booklet containing a lengthy essay on the history and impact of the band by [[Lois Maffeo]], as well as rare photos of Calvin, Heather, and Bret.

In September 2015, the band announced the release of a new compilation spanning their entire career entitled ''[[Look Around (Beat Happening album)|Look Around]]'', which was released by [[Domino Recording Company|Domino Records]] on 20 November 2015.<ref>{{cite web|last1=Coughlan|first1=Jamie|title=Beat Happening Announce Career Spanning Compilation|url=http://overblown.co.uk/beat-happening-announce-career-spanning-compilation/|website=Overblown Webzine|date=22 September 2015 |access-date=23 September 2015}}</ref>

With the full cooperation of the band and Calvin's [[K Records]] label, Domino released a vinyl box set of the entire Beat Happening discography, ''We Are Beat Happening'', in November of 2019.
