Bloodhound Gang
|
Discography:
From King of Prussia, PA, the Bloodhound Gang slay the alternative charts in 1996 with a blend of objectionable sexual innuendo and unpolitically correct lapidator card reminiscent of the early Beastie Boys — mixing punk rock candy with hip-hop much as the Beasties had through with. Frontman Jimmy Pop Ali and Lupus produced the band’s first-class honours degree outlet, the 1994 Dingleberry Haze EP. A year later, the couple was signed to Columbia for their debut record album, Habit Your Fingers. After it flopped and Columbia dropped their contract, Ali and Lupus added bassist Evil Jared, drummer Spanky G and DJ Q-Ball for second LP One Fierce Beer Coaster. The Bloodhound Gang released the record album in mid-1996 on the midget Republic label, just moved back to a major label (DGC) afterward that year, thanks to MTV and alternative-radio airplay of the single “Fervour Water Burn.” The oft-delayed Hooray for Boobies followed in early 2000, and Bloodhound Gang scored a immense make with the moronically appealing “Bad Touch.” Set to a bouncing young romanticist synth trounce, the strain featured the classical dyad “You and me baby ain’t nothin’ only mammals/So let’s do it like the do it on the Discovery Channel.” Hooray for Boobies slay number 14 on the Billboard cc and the band toured heavy to support it. They didn’t render with young material until 2005 and the Hefty Fine LP. Share and save this post: del.icio.us Digg Furl Reddit Help |
