The Bloodhound Gang celebrated success with cheeky songs like “The Bad Touch.” The outrageous band’s last album was released in 2015, but fans are now waiting.

No time? Blue News sums it up for you

  • The American scandal band Bloodhound Gang is about to make a comeback.
  • On Instagram, “Evil” bassist Jared Hasselhoff announces “the biggest music news of the year.”
  • The Bloodhound Gang released five albums between 1995 and 2015 and enjoyed chart success, for example with the cheeky pop song “The Bad Touch” (1999).

“Evil” Jared Hasselhoff gives Bloodhound Gang fans hope. In an Instagram video, the bassist of the American rock band Scandal announces “the biggest music news of the year.” He asks what this might be and gives examples, all of which are flatly denied. “Oasis reunion? Maybe big news in Manchester.” After provocative new theses, the 53-year-old resolves: This is “the announcement you’ve been waiting a decade for, and that is: the Bloodhound Gang is back.”

What this means, however, is still unclear. There were no signs of a return from former bandmates such as Jimmy Pop. However, some Instagram users reacted with enthusiasm.

The Bloodhound Gang released five albums between 1995 and 2015 and celebrated chart success, for example with the pop song “The Bad Touch” (1999). Musicians were also often provocative at concerts. Then they were still. In recent years, “Evil Jared” has appeared on several German TV shows and made music with drummer Krogi.
