Bloodhound Gang

"Fire Water Burn"

Bloodhound Gang is an American rock band formed in 1991, known for crude humor and genre-blending music that mixes rock, hip-hop, and electronic elements.

Their deliberately juvenile lyrics and provocative song titles made them alt-rock fixtures in the late 1990s and early 2000s.

The name plays on the children's detective segment from the PBS series *3-2-1 Contact*.
