Based in Boston, the Heavy Metal Horns mix a four-piece horn section with the typical rock band instruments to create a stew of R&B, funk and rock. The group released two demo cassettes before the Square label released their self-titled debut album. The Heavy Metal Horns moved to Danger Records for their second album Horns in the House; Dakini followed in 1997 and 4:20 in the Land of Plenty was issued in 1999.
