Hey @ThePunkRockMBA I love your content, your depth of musical knowledge is amazing! But... I notice that you refer to KROQ in LA, you call them K-R-O-Q, instead of K-ROQ (K-Rock). Is there a reason for this, or is it just to be extra specific about the station call letters? Once again, I love your work, you're awesome!

[@nickmaynard9193]

In July 2023, Jimmy Pop said that he was still working on making Bloodhound Gang music and that the band has not broken up.

[@shuruff904]

Dude you know you stole this video idea from Tome. There's no way he releases a video on The Bloodhound Gang a month ago, now all of a sudden you make a video. No one was/is talking about them. Look up "The Disgusting History of The Bloodhound Gang" by Tome.

Jimmy Pop was a pretty funny writer and columnist for various magazines back in the day. He's actually a very talented writer who seemed to treat stupidity like an artform.

Norm MacDonald had that quality. If you read a transcript of his interviews, it would be a bunch of really stupid old dad jokes you'd find in a jokebook, but there's a reason that he's a legend. Jimmy Pop was incredible with his analogy-heavy lyrics.

[@ZappaSheik]

Here in Europe, Bloodhound Gang was really popular. They weren't controversial or shocking cause we had other acts that filled that spot, they was as more of a childish, fart-joke band that people from the ages of 6 to 75 could enjoy. Fire Water Burn was a mega-hit and was played at every youth disco here in Sweden on repeat, and the video wasn't censored. I love TBHG and have every album they made, plus the singles. Got the Bad Touch Single 3 weeks before release and said "this dumb piece of shit is going to be a number 1 hit."

[@sandervandriel3476]

What helped, or did in my case really, was that a lot of European parents didnt understand sufficient English to actually hear what us 'kids' were listening to.. I was 14 (indeed as Finn says) when I bought Hooray for Boobies and 15 when I went to see them here in the Netherlands. Hell I didnt understand half of the refferences then

[@xraccooonx]

They were really popular in New Zealand too. I was only 5 when the Bad Touch came out but I can remember it being played on tv all the time, even years after it was released. You'd be hard pressed to find someone my age or older who doesn't know that song. Pretty sure their albums did really well on NZ charts too.

[@astrolopitekos]

100% agree. In Portugal we had really famous controversial bands that made fun of everything in the nastiest way possible. Heck one of the guys of these bands even ran for President claiming he would buy a ferrari and a prostitute for every voter lol. BHG was just mild juvenile jokes boosted by cool music.

I saw them in a small venue in Seattle early 2000's. Unquestionably the wildest concert I've ever been to. At the start of the show, they pulled a guy from the crowd and wanted him on stage during the show pounding warm Dr. Peppers. As many as he could. They later directed him to piss his pants, to which he hesitantly obliged. That was just one of many stage antics. Fun times.

[@BentonHart]

Wasn't the deal that if they finished the case of warm Dr Pepper they'd give them $100?

I was never really into Bloodhound Gang but I do have one fond memory related to them.

Jimmy Pop came walking down the street and liked it and invited me into the bus where he gave me a beer and introduced me to his girlfriend. Then when I left the bass player gave me a crate of beer! So the show starts, Jimmy invites the crowd to spit at him and he's onstage trying to catch it in his mouth. Then he jumps into the crowd and starts rock n roll dancing with my sister ha. After the show I went to say bye to them and they invited us to spend the night partying with them but I lived like 40 miles away and had a train to catch.

[@MrBenMcLean]

As a philosopher, I would say that the chorus of "Bad Touch" is the best, simplest and fastest way I know to explain the ethical consequences of materialist belief systems in metaphysics. In the first line, we have the metaphysical premise ("You and me baby ain't nothin but mammals") which establishes what humans are (metaphysical materialism) and from this logically follows the ethical conclusion in the second line. ("So let's do it like they do on the Discovery Channel.") A life seeking empty, hedonistic pleasures is really the only goal if we assume that materialism is true. Or, as Sartre put it, "Everything is permissible if there is no God."

[@Medniex]

I remember their performance quite detailed.They were headliners for the festival which happened the same weekend in the same area in spite of another (more mainstream focused) festival so the spirit was right on. It was really a miracle to have them in such a small city and although no flags were used to wipe ass, they touched the crowd with similar supporting shout-outs.

Question, how? It was Bam not Jimmy.

[@JPTHRICE]

@@CyPhaSaRin Jimmy Pop, singer of the Bloodhound Gang, wondered why he couldn't find the album in stores or online in America. The Bloodhound Gang and HIM both had their big hits at the same time and therefore met at European festivals and maintained contact, even though they were decried as a chaotic band with fecal humor.[36] For this reason, Jimmy Pop wanted to do the band a favor and decided to set up a record company that would distribute the album in the Boston area. In June 2000 he called Seppo Vesterinen, HIM's manager, but it was not until two years later, in June 2002, that a contract was signed.[37] To get around the naming problems, the album was released under the name HER (His Evil Royalty).[2] The album was only released on October 28, 2003 via Universal Records, licensed by Jimmy Franks' record company, and was limited to 1000 copies. It was only sold in Newbury Comics stores in New England, Massachusetts.[38] ((TRANSLATED FROM GERMAN WIKI))

[@JPTHRICE]

The group acquired the rights to the name and has since been allowed to call itself HIM in the USA.

[@sonofsamlaw]

In the early 2000‘s they were incredibly huge in Germany. Their songs were on MTV and it’s local counterpart VIVA on heavy rotation, they played the biggest festivals and I think generally, Germany was one of their biggest „markest“. Maybe it was because people didn’t use to speak English that much and well back then, because I don’t remember anyone being upset about their childish lyrics, only their antics like pissing on stage rolled some eyes. I met Evil Jared once in Berlin during a Lamb Of God show, a really nice and down-to-earth guy actually 👌🏼 But I think they wouldn’t have as much success and leeway here as they had twenty plus years ago.

[@langustajableczna]

I thought they were a german band for the longest time. For some reason the bandname seemed german to me

[@ZappaSheik]

They were big in Sweden aswell and we have been speaking English fluently for 60 years now, they were more of a softer version of our swedish counterpart and we found that funny.

[@sonofsamlaw]

@@ZappaSheik Which band was your Swedish counterpart if I might ask?

[@devenscience8894]

@@sonofsamlaw I was wondering the same thing.

[@murdercircus7706]

True, I lived in Germany for 10 years, and I speak fluent Deutsch. We all thought the Bloodhound Gang was from Germany, I swear I even once heard a DJ on the radio say they were from Germany. BTW, Anyone remember The Guano Apes?

[@dangernoodle4305]

It's pretty funny that you made this video, just 2 weeks ago I decided to listen through their whole discography. I learnt 2 things, their music still rocks and I am just as immature as I was then. I turn 40 in April....

I LOVE the Bloodhound Gang - lyrics are literally brilliant especially with the lyrical references

[@ncironhorse8367]

The writing is clever and sophomoric. Jimmy Pop knows his core audience. Beer Coaster is one of my all time fav's and is always in rotation on my playlists. I mean the drummer from Def Leppard's only got one arm!

[@brandonbrown3600]

One of my favorite bands overall. Bloodhound gangs crude humor and music was extremely popular in the early 2ks. Wish they would go on a random tour with VV or something.

[@infidelmat]

The cover of Hefty Fine literally altered me in the most profound way, stirring up feelings burried deep inside ....ironically a very "outside the box" moment of revelation....😅

Every time I get drunk I listen to them 😂😂😂 this era of music was soooo good . Love these videos man !

[@mattjohnson1775]

I had no idea of how much footage there is of the guys not unbelievably ultra intoxicated. I've never seen sooo much sobriety in the Bam/ CkY / Jackass videos 😅

[@proudhonintop4952]

So I live nearby to where Bloodhound Gang is from and a little weird fun fact you probably didnt know is when Jimmy Pop still lived in the area people use to go and shit in his yard. Growing up in SE Pennsylvania in the 2000's was interesting.

[@FaithFallRepentGraceRepeat]

Altogether Ooky was a great single. I wish they explored that sound a bit more with a follow up album. Jimmy is an extremely clever songwriter.

[@skabcat242]

Wow...I remember when "water fire burn" used to get played on the radio constantly.

I love this band I go on a bloodhound gang binge at least once a month they crack me up but they are also very musically talented

[@abbeycat6425]

I am a 54 year old female accountant, married 20 years, with one child. The only Bloodhound Gang songs I know are ‘Fire Water Burn’ and The Bad Touch’ and I love them. Brilliantly rhyming lyrics. My son use to love Fire Water Burn when it was played on the radio because they replaced the swearing with a donkey’s ’eh aw’ and he would laugh his head off. And a few months ago he was listening to The Bad Touch and suddenly clicked as to what it was all about. I don’t think he will feel comfortable listening to it with his mother around!

[@ejdrums]

I remember writing Foxtrot Uniform Charlie Kilo on a math homework in high school. Didn't realize that was going to be the one day the teacher collected our homework to review, nor did I realize what the lyrics were spelling out. While he reviewed our work, he called out my name and said "Hey, i think its supposed to be Umbrella".

[@MaxR.]

Evil Jared actually lives in Germany now and participated in several TV Shows as contestant like the TV Total Wok challenge and is still often in german reality shows.

[@dragonlotion1789]

Off topic but, I don’t see any videos being made about Wendie O’ Williams and the Plasmatics. Maybe something that would you in the future. Love your channel.

[@Snarferbee]

Ooooooooh yes he needs to!

[@mickcollins1921]

I thought that "I hope you die" was particularly brilliant, and when they came out with Foxtrot Uniform Charlie Kilo I thought they had reached a new pinnacle of sign writing. I don't usually like schlock rock like Puddle of Mudd and Theory of a Deadman whose catalogs are full of cringy sexually graphic songs that take themselves to seriously, but I've always had a soft spot for the Bloodhound Gang. One of my finest moments was as a junior enlisted soldier I went out to a small bar at the end of a monthlong training class with the senior enlisted instructors and did The Ballad of Chasey Lain on karaoke. By the end of it the shock wore off the instructors and a few of them belted out "Now show em them titties" during the final chorus.

They were a legitimately good band that didn't hold punches and were fantastic entertainment. And yes that is a hill im willing to die on.

Tbh, as much as things get cancelled now, I feel if a band were to do this now, they would get so much attention. Probably short-lived, but with tik tok and social media, it truthfully would explode

I saw Evil Jared a couple of weeks ago at a Babymetal concert in Berlin.

[@GruffGames]

I saw them in the UK with Bowling for Soup. BFS sat on a wheeled crate and Evil Jared pulled them across the stage using only his junk.

[@BaronLector]

When I discovered Napster in 2000(ish), a high percentage of songs burned to CD were Bloodhound Gang, including various remixes of The Bad Touch.

[@codyge18]

PCU was 30 years ahead of its time. I remember Bad Touch freaking teachers out in 99, then 5 years later they pop up on VLB, and i was like hey those guys, then completely forgot about them until 2013, when i walked in to a Baskin Robbins in Seoul and a Bad Touch remix was playing, which was wild

[@danielbarry3161]

I saw them with alien ant farm supporting them. Jimmy pop was standing by their bus outside of the venue. We were taking to him and he pulled out a cheap little $20 Kmart keyboard and played master of puppets and Beverly Hills cop theme. Super nice dude and absolutely hilarious! Met Jared after the show and got autographs. Tried getting on the bus but got denied in the funniest way. Great live band super fun show and awesome guys!

[@CeeJayThe13th]

Occasionally it feels like a video is made just for me and you've done it twice with ICP and BHG.

[@QBG]

I was a teenager in high school when BHG was in their heyday. We all knew how stupid, childish, and offensive their lyrics were, but "edgy" for us back then came with the assumption that you understood it wasn't meant to be taken seriously. If BHG came out today, their swift Canceling™ wouldn't be because people were offended by their lyrics, but because too many boys would _actually_ idolize and emulate the gross shit in those lyrics. I couldn't imagine boys of my generation reacting to BHG and their "edgy" image the same way boys today react to "edgy" influencers like Sneako. We didn't actually _believe_ that bullying a stripper until she cries would improve the quality of a lap dance, but the kids who consume "edgy" content today apparently don't have that very basic common sense.

[@MattCatt09]

Found this channel like 3 days ago and I’m already addicted. Please keep the content coming!

[@whit9987]

I grew up in Utah, small super LDS town. I was an emo kid back in the day but everyone knew the lyrics to the bad touch. That just happened to be the only song anyone around knew. One day my brother found a cd on the street and brought it to me (I am a huge music fan), and this was back when I was 12-13. The cd was a mix with a bunch of Eminem and bloodhound gang oldies(i recognized the voice, thats the only way i knew who it was). And ooooweeee I had to listen on quiet mode but it was enthralling. We weren't allowed south park but the music was close to it, just a bunch of raunchy fun. I took it to school with my discman and let my friends listen too😂 so shoutout whoever lost or threw out that cd onto the street (no case even and it didn't scratch!) For expanding a bunch of Mormon kids music horizons.

[@IdoSchacham]

Seriously, these days everyone is so uptight and trying to keep up with the current moral standards and who to cancel next. This has gotten really dumb and tiring. Bloodhound Gang were ridiculous and that was the whole point. It wasn't serious, it was fun, it was stupid - but by no means does it mean that the band themselves were dumb. It usually takes a lot of intelligence, braveness and awareness to be funny. So, if you're offended by Bloodhound Gang, I really hope you can lighten up and see the funnier side of things, especially when they're not PC.

[@rclc161]

Finn confusing criticism with that "cancel" trigger word again

[@michaelr.4878]

Finn is really disappointing me lately. He is more concerned with stroking the SJW crowd than he is with having common sense or a sense of humor. Being appealing to sponsors is one thing..i understand that is part of making content...but being a total schill for a group of turkeys is a totallly different thing. To use an old term that he likes to talk about so much, he has become a major, major sell out. He has sold his common sense.

[@chrishammer1006]

just like "woke" this is a right-wing buzzword

They’re a band that’s always had the same “nobody, not even ourselves, is safe from being ripped to pieces with truth”.
