Twiztid is an American hip hop duo from Detroit, Michigan, known for both their horror-themed lyrics and rock-influenced sound. Formed in 1997, Twiztid is composed of rappers Jamie "Madrox" Spaniolo and Paul "Monoxide" Methric. Spaniolo and Methric are also members of the group House of Krazees with Bryan "The R.O.C." Jones, which formed in 1992.
Twiztid was signed with Psychopathic Records from 1997 to 2012. They released their debut album, Mostasteless, in 1998. In addition to the duo's involvement in side projects such as Psychopathic Rydas and Dark Lotus, the releases of Freek Show (2000), Mirror Mirror (2002), and The Green Book (2003) established Twiztid within the horrorcore subgenre and juggalo fanbase. After two solo albums (one each by Methric and Spaniolo) and three Twiztid albums from 2004 to 2007, the duo released their most commercially successful album in 2009, W.I.C.K.E.D., which peaked at No. 11 on the Billboard 200 chart (the third-highest position in Psychopathic's history). After the release of Heartbroken & Homicidal in 2010 and Abominationz in 2012, Twiztid departed from Psychopathic in late 2012.
