In 1991 the band added a horn section to their live shows and recordings, due mostly by the influence of two of their favorite bands at the time, Fishbone and Red Hot Chili Peppers.^{[citation needed]} The band's 2nd independent release came out in 1992 with the Rasta Mis Huevos 7" EP for Signal Sound Systems Records. This label also released a glow-in-the-dark 12" EP titled We're Coloring Fun and the first release of The Potty Training Years on CD.

The band began to tour worldwide with their first European tour in 1996 followed by Japan, Australia, Mexico and South America.

The band has been featured on several of Epitaph's Punk-O-Rama releases and has had music featured in video games, TV and movies.^{[citation needed]}

The song "Shoot the moon" from the bands Firme album was used in the Pauly Shore movie "Bio-Dome" and the band's version of "Used to love her" (originally written and recorded by Guns and Roses) is featured in the "Mr. & Mrs. Smith" soundtrack.

In 2002 Voodoo Glow Skulls signed to Victory Records. The band released three albums on the Victory label and continued to tour.
