http://www.twiztid.com DVLH http://www.lukehadley.com Twiztid is a hardcore hip hop/horrorcore rap group from Eastpointe, Michigan, formed in 1997. The group consists of Jamie Madrox and Monoxide. Since their 1998 debut, the group has become the second most popular group on the Psychopathic Records (after Insane Clown Posse), and has a loyal following of Juggalos of their own. Early history (1992--1999) Prior to Twiztid, Jamie Madrox and Monoxide were members of the rap trio House of Krazees, using the names Mr. Bones and Hektic. The band released five albums before splitting up in 1997. The two formed Twiztid, signing with Psychopathic Records that same year. Twiztid's 1998 debut album, Mostasteless, was originally released independently by Psychopathic. When Insane Clown Posse signed with Island Records, they helped get a deal for Twiztid as well. Mostasteless was pulled, and re-released on Island in 1999 with somewhat different track listing. That track listing included brand new songs, leaving tracks like "Murder Murder Murder" and "She Ain't Afraid" because of Island Records' standards of material on the original Mostasteless release. Freek Show era (2000--2002) In 2000, the group released Cryptic Collection, which compiled unreleased and other hard-to-find material.
Twiztid released their second album, Freek Show, on October 31,2000 —the same day Insane Clown Posse released their Bizaar/Bizzar albums.
