Product Description

From Amazon.com

White rappers generally divide into two camps: the Beastie Boys disciples and the House of Pain clique. For the former, honky hip-hop has nothing to do with the African-American experiences that gave birth to the rap form; rather, it is borrowed to express the middle-class, often suburban, ennui that comes from too much pop culture and too much time on one's hands. In the latter, groups attempt to co-opt the Afrocentrism and identity worship from black rap and use it as a template for their own particular ethnic trumpeting--Irish, in HOP's case.

On their debut album, Use Your Fingers, Bloodhound Gang make it clear which group they expect to be confused with: "No, I'm not the guy from the Beastie Boys!" yells Jimmy Pop (or is it his partner Daddy Long Legs?). Hailing from suburban Philadelphia, BG are a self-contained frat party dying to offend anyone who'll listen with their often hilarious, in-your-face political incorrectness. They fight for their right to be moronic throughout--whether worshiping Rip Taylor or invoking the Cavity Creeps from an old toothpaste ad.

It's not all just fat-chick and cripple jokes, though: BG back up their obnoxious idiocy with some fairly wise musical maneuvering. While their age and background lead them to repeatedly mine the '80s for material--Duran Duran and Cure samples, Michael Jackson and Blondie interpolations, a "Kids in America" cover--their sly comments and ingenious a cappella snippets prove they're surprisingly sharp and able lads. --Roni Sarig

4.0 out of 5 stars Not as good as their 2nd one, 22 Jun 2001
By A Customer
Whats that i hear you cry? A girl who likes the bloodhound gang?? It cant possibly be! Well, believe it or not some of us still have our sense of humour intact... and it's about time people started to realise the intelligence in their music. This album isn't as good as one fierce beer coaster (but how could they top that?) and it shows that they were still tryin to find their sound back then. However, the use of samples is pretty good and the irony in the lyrics is present even when they were just starting out. To like this, you have to be pretty openminded and not quick to take offence, but its worth overlooking the tongueincheek humour, as behind it is a talented group of clever / childish people, who just so happen to enjoy irritating people. I recommend buying one fierce beer coaster first, as its rockier and more accessible than this (this album seems to have a lot more hiphop influence) but anyone who likes the bhg should find this pretty satisfying

3.0 out of 5 stars Great Lyrics, Great Rap, that's it, 17 April 2003
I bought this album not long after hearing their other two albums OFBC and H4B and to be precise i ain't dissapointed but i am surprised at they have evolved since 1995. The rib-spliting offensive humour is still there (Check out the highly orignal Your Pretty When i'm Drunk)but the music it self does not have the catchiness of the other two records (except for One Way which is possibly the best track on the album)and with two rappers (Jimmy Pop and Ex.BHG-Member Daddy Long Legs) it is a little hard to distinguish where they are actually headed with all of these lyrics.
Over it's worth the buy if you already have the other 2 records but not worth buying untill you have heard the other 2.

5.0 out of 5 stars Bloodhound Gang Are God, 25 May 2003
People wouldn't like this album becuase it has the shouts in it and the no 50 million notes a second solos but who needs serious music when you can have a great laugh! Even my parents like this record! But like he said only if you are a fan. I suggest One Fierce Beer Coaster, more than this album, if one album could get 6 star One Fierce Beer Coaster Would get it.
