20 Dead Flower Children was a metal group originating from Detroit, Michigan, established in 1994. They produced two studio albums between 1996 and 1997 before disbanding in the early part of the 2000s.

History

The band came together in 1994 and launched their first album, 20 Dead Flower Children, via the local label Overture Records in February 1996. Soon after this release, their vocalist "Von" left the group, casting uncertainty on their continuation. Subsequently, Dennis "D-Hauz" Hogan joined as the new lead singer, and the band signed with Overcore Records, owned by rapper Esham. Their sophomore album, Candy Toy Guns and Television, was issued on June 24, 1997.

In 1998, following a change in their bassist lineup, the band moved to Huntington Beach, California. Overcore Records became part of TVT Records, which re-released Candy Toy Guns and Television on Halloween of 2000. Despite this affiliation, no further studio albums were produced; only demo recordings surfaced before the group dissolved in 2001.

They briefly reunited for a single performance at The Brigg in Huntington Beach on June 3, 2006.
