3 Fists and a Mouthful is the third studio album by the American hardcore punk band Hogan's Heroes. It was released in January 1992 on advanced promo copies. Produced by George Barberio, and recorded at Ocean Gate Studios (Nelson, Alice Cooper) the album showcased the band's full use of hardcore, rock, full-band backing vocals, while fusing elements of punk, thrash and metal. The album was partially re-released in 1995 in a Revolver/Rotz/Smash/Dutch East distributed, remastered version. Album information
The album received favorable reviews and was considered to be their best release. Many of the album's songs are from old demos, unreleased, and new material, including "Corporate Life", "Self Defense" and "Cold". The production was handled by guitarist George Barberio and Damian Kain co-produced and engineered. The working title for the album was Three. The original art and cover layout was never commercially released and differs greatly from the cover that was released in 1995.
