Candy Toy Guns and Television is the second and final studio album by American metal band 20 Dead Flower Children. It was originally released on June 24, 1997 by rapper Esham's label Overcore Records. On October 31, 2000, it was reissued by TVT Records.[1] The original 1997 artwork, featuring a woman painted in bronze holding a gun to her mouth, was kept for TVT's reissue.
A positive review of the album was written in the Gavin Report in June 1997, the review states that "[the record] will appeal to those who embrace fast-paced hard rock — it's a great listen."[3] Erik Hage of AllMusic gave the album a negative one-and-a-half-star review, stating "20 Dead Flower Children's Candy, Toy Guns & Television is a rather uninspired, hard-edged foray into industrial/techno, with vocals that swing from Limp Bizkit-flavored rhyming to hardcore roaring." He also observed "This is an idiom that groups such as Linkin Park would subsequently navigate much more successfully (and parlay into financial success)."[2]
