Bloodhound Gang is a Collegeville, Pennsylvania-based American rock band, beginning as a rap group but gradually changing its genre throughout the years. Their songs typically have humorous and off-beat, satirical lyrics that often deal with sexual subjects and contain many puns and innuendos.

They are best known for their hit singles "Fire Water Burn", "The Bad Touch" and "Foxtrot Uniform Charlie Kilo". Formed in 1991, Bloodhound Gang has sold more than 6 million albums.

The Bloodhound Gang began as a small alternative band called Bang Chamber 8. It comprised Jimmy Pop and Daddy Long Legs, both graduates of Perkiomen Valley High School . They released an eponymous tape before changing their name to the Bloodhound Gang, a reference to "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.

Jimmy Pop and Jared Hasselhoff both attended Temple University in Philadelphia, PA.

Unable to book shows anywhere else, the Bloodhound Gang first performed an extra room at Evil Jared Hasselhoff's house, in exchange for Schlitz, Marlboros, and a chance to hand out their first demo tape, entitled Just Another Demo. When the floor caved in one night, they began performing every month at CBGBs in New York City. When asked about the band's tenure at the club, Jimmy Pop was quoted as saying, "I've seen cavemen with better clubs."

In April 1994, the band released their second demo tape, The Original Motion Picture Soundtrack to Hitler's Handicapped Helpers. This resulted in a record deal with Cheese Factory Records.

In summer 1994, Jimmy Pop had a small role in the short independent film The Chick That Was Naked by independent filmmaker Kurt Fitzpatrick. Also, a song by the band was used on its soundtrack.
In November 1994, the Bloodhound Gang released their first EP, Dingleberry Haze.
