ABOUT THE ALBUM 1 disc(s) - 12 track(s) Total length: 00:46:17 Main artist: Bloodhound Gang Composer: Various Composers Label: Geffen Genre: Rock, Alternative 16-Bit CD Quality 44.1 kHz - Stereo © 1996 Geffen Records Inc. ℗ 1996 UMG Recordings, Inc. Originally released on the independent label Republic, the Bloodhound Gang's second album, One Fierce Beer Coaster, was picked up by DGC about two months after its release, allegedly because it had great word-of-mouth. And, listening to the single, "Fire Water Burn," it's possible to hear why -- the group's smarmy, smirky alternative funk-metal, complete with junk culture references and "ironic" musical allusions, fits into the one-hit wonder cycle that dominated modern rock during the mid-'90s. One Fierce Beer Coaster captures the group's sound better than their Columbia debut, but the group has neither the dexterity nor the grit to pull off their hip-hop and rock fusions; they awkwardly stumble through their frat-party alternative rock. But what really sinks the album is the revolting, sophomoric humor that passes for lyrics. The liner notes might dismiss any complaints as indication that you don't get the joke, but it's hard to be comfortable with an album that believes smutty puns about oral sex ("Kiss Me Where It Smells Funny") and fart jokes (just about every track on the album) are what punk and alternative rock were all about. © Stephen Thomas Erlewine /TiVo. Bloodhound Gang – One Fierce Beer Coaster (1996) Like most people I heard of Bloodhound Gang because of “The Bad Touch” and Hooray for Boobies, which my buddy owned on cassette. I was 14 so it was perfect. We had sleepovers where we’d listen to this and They’re All Gonna Laugh at You!! while playing Magic cards. Though to be honest I don’t remember much about either because my friend just wanted to play “At a Medium Pace” over and over and over again. I remember thinking “Mope” was really awesome and when Napster came out I struggled mightily to find it (again – didn’t know the name of the song). But the one I really got to know was One Fierce Beer Coaster , not because I particularly wanted to, but it just found me in a way. I had some friends whose house I went by a lot; they’d play Diablo II and World of Warcraft while I played poker, trying to carve out some food and tuition money. Obviously my computer housed only the finest of MP3s, but the other one? There was three CDs in a random mix; one by the pop-punk semi-supergroup Transplants, one by Lucky Boys Confusion, and One Fierce Beer Coaster . I’ve probably listened to all these songs at least a hundred times over the course of that year. I liked a few songs by the Transplants, couldn’t stand Lucky Boys, but wound up digging the Bloodhound Gang. “Hold Your Head Up High (And Blow Your Brains Out)” was stuck in my head forever and eventually I knew I had to steal the CD. Not exactly a critical favorite of ’96 – you can just picture Pitchfork giving it a 3.6 and saying “not as funny or clever as it thinks it is”, then cracking some “ironic” joke more offensive than anything on the actual album. I mean you could probably sum up the BHG worldview as “Everything and everybody sucks and is gay, especially me”. A lot of these lyrics are pretty offensive but I think that sort of humor works when you’re also constantly pointing it at yourself. I like Jackass , I like Tosh.0, and I like Andrew Dice Clay – all these things are indefensible to some degree but I’m not a very sophisticated person. I’m not even gonna claim this album is very funny, cuz it’s really not, but I enjoy the shallowness sometimes. That shallowness extends to the music too, which is generally catchy if unoriginal. Use Your Fingers, their first album, was nearly entirely samples, with a lot of vocal hooks stolen from the hits of the early 80’s, and they’re not exactly discreet about it either. There’s some of that on this album (“Fire Water Burn” is nearly a cover, “It’s Tricky” is a cover, and “Your Only Friends Are Make Believe” is essentially a rewrite of “Hungry Like the Wolf”) though for the most part they fancy themselves as some sort of alt-rock band with turntables, like they’re Sugar Ray or something. One thing that never came through on those computer speakers was just how badly this is produced – the guitar and drums are really muffled and out of focus (especially for this kind of music) while the record scratches get amped up and are put all over the place. In fact the constant scratching might actually be the most obnoxious thing about this album, which is unfortunate because they try so hard with the lyrics. Not that I really need to explain that, not with song titles with “I Wish I Was Queer so I Could Get Chicks” or “Kiss Me Where it Smells Funny”. The thing about this disc is that none of the singles are all that good, or at least they haven’t held up all that well. Jimmy Pop’s “I’m just a lame ol’ honky” routine on “Fire Water Burn” made the band famous, but the whole “white dudes can’t rap” thing was played out even then (and nowadays is seen as a little racist). “I Wish I Was Queer” is even more insensitive, though what the fuck am I talking about, this is Bloodhound Gang isn’t it? The only time they really go over the line is on “Yellow Fever”, which was cut from most CDs, and rightfully so. “Hold Your Head Up High (And Blow Your Brains Out” is over-the-top cruel and I like it for that, plus it’s a pretty great tune. For some reason it wasn’t a single, though “Why Is Everybody Always Picking On Me?” and “Kiss Me Where it Smells Funny” both were. All these songs are in the first half, and believe it or not the rear end is better. You’ve got “Boom” with the one and only Vanilla Ice, and it’s pretty dope actually. There’s the paranoid electro beats of “Asleep at the Wheel” that makes for one of their catchiest songs (reminds a bit of Kraftwerk, actually). And “Going Nowhere Slow”, probably their best rock song, containing an impressively long, rapid-fire list of the cities the band has toured (how many takes do you think THAT took?). Also – “Shut Up” (fun!), “Your Friends Are Only Make Believe” (strangely moving!), and “Reflections of Remoh” (really dumb!) All told, I think this is probably their best album, though I guess that’s sort of like picking out your favorite episode of Viva! La Bam . They aren’t boring, but do I really want to admit I listen to these guys? One Fierce Beer Coaster [Bonus Tracks] Album. One Fierce Beer Coaster is the second studio album by American band Bloodhound Gang, released on December 3, 1996. Produced by Jimmy Pop, it was the band's first release on Geffen Records, and the first to feature Michael "Spanky G" Guthier on drums, "Evil" Jared Hasselhoff on bass guitar, and DJ Q-Ball on the turntables. The musical style of One Fierce Beer Coaster is grounded in the alternative rock genre, with prominent rap metal guitar riffs and lyrics rife with toilet humor. One Fierce Beer Coaster was initially released by the independent label Republic Records before being re-released by Geffen Records due to underground popularity. The album has received mixed to moderately favorable reviews. Three singles were released from the album including "Fire Water Burn", "I Wish I Was Queer So I Could Get Chicks" and "Why's Everybody Always Pickin' On Me?" The first single, "Fire Water Burn", was a modern rock hit, charting on seven different international charts. more » Bloodhound Gang Discography 320 Kbps [MP3] BLOODHOUND GANG DISCOGRAPHY STUDIO ALBUMS. 01 – Rip Taylor Is God 02 – We Are The Knuckleheads 03 – Legend In My Spare Time 04 – B.H.G.P.S.A. 05 – Mama Say 06 – Kids In America 07 – You’re Pretty When I’m Drunk 08 – The Evils Of Placenta Hustling 09 – One Way 10 – Shitty Record Offer 11 – Go Down 12 – Earlameyer The Butt Pirate 13 – No Rest For The Wicked 14 – She Ain’t Got No Legs 15 – We Like Meat 16 – Coo Coo Ca Choo 17 – Rang Dang 18 – Nightmare At The Apollo 19 – K.I.D.S.
