}} ''One Fierce Beer Coaster'' is the second studio album by American alternative rock 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, 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. Originally released on the independent label Republic Records, ''One Fierce Beer Coaster'' was later picked up by Geffen Records two months after its release due to word-of-mouth 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. ==Background and development== The Bloodhound Gang began as a small alternative band from King of Prussia, Pennsylvania.〔 The band took its name from "The Bloodhound Gang", a segment on the 1980s PBS kids' show ''3-2-1 Contact'' that featured three young detectives solving mysteries and fighting crime. The band consisted of Jimmy Pop, Daddy Long Legs, M.S.G., Lupus Thunder, and Skip O'Pot2Mus. In April 1994, the band released their second demo tape, ''The Original Motion Picture Soundtrack to Hitler's Handicapped Helpers'' (1994).〔 This resulted in a record deal with Cheese Factory Records, which was later renamed Republic Records. Later that year, the Bloodhound Gang released their first EP, ''Dingleberry Haze'' (1994).〔 In March 1995 the group signed a record deal with Columbia Records and released their first full-length album, titled ''Use Your Fingers'' (1995), but were subsequently dropped by the label.〔〔 At this time Daddy Long Legs and M.S.G., who were angry with Columbia Records, left the band to form another rap group, Wolfpac.〔〔 Bass player Evil Jared Hasselhoff, drummer Spanky G and turntablist D.J. Q-Ball joined Bloodhound Gang as replacements.〔 In addition, Skip O'Pot2Mus eventually left to pursue a career outside of the music industry. Eventually, the band began working on their new album, ''One Fierce Beer Coaster''. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「One Fierce Beer Coaster」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
