St. Louis, Missouri band initially known as Broken Toyz. The band gradually introduced original material into their set, until the demand for their own songs allowed them to drop the cover versions entirely. They signed a recording contract in 1990, and, having adopted the name Kingofthehill, recorded their self-titled debut with Bang Tango producer Howard Benson.
