Background and development
The Bloodhound Gang began as a small alternative band from King of Prussia, Pennsylvania.

The band comprised Jimmy Pop, Daddy Long Legs, M.S.G., Lupus Thunder, and Skip O'Pot2Mus. In April 1994, the band released their second demonstration tape, The Original Motion Picture Soundtrack to Hitler's Handicapped Helpers (1994).
