The Buzzhorn formed in late 1997 out of Milwaukee, Wisconsin and almost immediately took center stage in Milwaukee's hard rock scene. They released 2 independent CDs (Self Titled and ...A Complete Package of Action Packed Tragedies) before signing to Atlantic records in 2001.

The Buzzhorn worked with producer Howard Benson (Papa Roach, P.O.D., Cold, Hoobastank) on their major label debut "Disconnected"

The Buzzhorn's major label debut brought them great praise for bringing a fresh approach to the hard rock world, with quotes from Hit Parader magazine labeling The Buzzhorn as "the new hard rock rookies of the year" as well as a 4 star review from metal edge magazine.

The album never really kicked off because Atlantic chose to promote hard rock act Taproot much harder. Though very poorly promoted and supported, the album has been estimated to have sold at least 10,000 copies. This is due almost directly to the popular video game Need for Speed Hot Pursuit 2.

The Buzzhorn has toured with Seether, Injected, Deftones, Default, Jerry Cantrell as well as many other groups in support of "Disconnected".

The Buzzhorn has currently fulfilled their obligation with Atlantic Records. The band is known to be over even though their official website still exists. Todd now lives in California working on projects and producing acts.

Bert joined a local Milwaukee band called King Gun made up of former members of the Milwaukee hard rock act Big Dumb Dick. King Gun only released a three song demo in 2004. The lead singer of King Gun reformed Big Dumb Dick in early 2008 and has recruited Bert as their new guitarist replacing Paris Ortiz.

They appeared in the 2002 video game, Need for Speed Hot Pursuit 2 with their song "Ordinary"
