Bloodhound Gang

Its original title, Heavy Flow, was scrapped when it was noticed that fellow musician Moby had a song with the same name. Although they never played live originally, they have played together live twice since, once in 1998 and once in 2004. The band's next album, Hefty Fine, is due for release some time during late 2004 to early 2005. Horn said he chose "The Buggles" for the band's name because, "It was the most disgusting name I could think of at that time.". In 2003, the band released a DVD entitled One Fierce Beer Run, which chronicles their One Fierce Beer Coaster tour of 1997. The band's sound was characterised by a deliberately synthetic quality, in keeping with the technological subject matter of their songs. The album also featured a song about porn star Chasey Lain, and A Lapdance is So Much Better When the Stripper is Crying. They recorded two albums, the second of which was released after Horn and Downes had replaced Jon Anderson and Rick Wakeman, respectively, in Yes.

Hooray for Boobies included the hit single "The Bad Touch" which featured the chorus "You and me baby ain't nothing but mammals, so let's do it like they do on the Discovery Channel." Due to its happy melody and instrumentation the song is one of the most played songs in German Adult contemporary radio stations. The video for the song, directed by Russell Mulcahy was - quite appropriately - the first video aired on MTV North America. "Fire Water Burn" became a major hit and enabled the band to record a successful follow-up, Hooray for Boobies in 2000. The novelty value of the song led to them being perceived as one-hit wonders, but its success was sufficient to launch both members of the band on successful careers. The album was a flop and the group lost their record contract but then signed to Geffen and released 1996's One Fierce Beer Coaster. The Buggles shot to fame with their first single released in late 1979. The band formed in 1994 and released the Dingleberry Haze EP, then signed to Columbia Records for the full length debut, Use Your Fingers. The Buggles were a pop/rock band formed in 1977 consisting of Trevor Horn and Geoff Downes, early on including Academy Award-winning film composer Hans Zimmer (who left after the success of Video Killed the Radio Star).

A common theme in the band's lyrics are elaborate metaphors, similes and puns, such as "you came twice last year like a Sears catalogue," "like Times New Roman, you know the type." or "Like the Jim Jones cult, I'll take you out with one punch" Perhaps the group's best known hit is "Fire Water Burn" which contained the memorable and much reproduced chorus of "The roof/The roof/The roof is on fire/We don't need no water/Let the motherfucker burn/Burn motherfucker burn." In 2004 it was featured in the film Fahrenheit 9/11 anecdotally as a song popular with American soldiers fighting in Iraq. Adventures In Modern Recording (1981). Known for humorous, obscene, and often offensive lyrics, the Bloodhound gang makes jokes about taboo subjects from race to child abductions and incest in bizarre, stream-of-consciousness hip-hop influenced lyrics. The Age of Plastic (1980). Spanky G left in 1998. The group formed in 1994 (see 1994 in music) and currently consists of Jimmy Pop (born James Franks), DJ Q-Ball, Evil Jared Hasselhoff, Lüpüs Thünder and Willie the New Guy.
