[edit] House of Krazees
Methric started out as an original member of House of Krazees under the pseudonym "Hektic". Along with Mr. Bones and The R.O.C., the original House of Krazees released six albums in the years 1993-1997. Problems with the groups label, Latnem Intertainment, lead to The R.O.C leaving the group. [2] After an offer from the Insane Clown Posse to join Psychopathic Records, the two accepted and reemerged as the duo known as Twiztid.
[edit] Twiztid
After being signed to Psychopathic Records, the duo re-did their image, and set out to prove themselves. Twiztid's first appearance came on the song "Echoside", off ICP's album The Amazing Jeckel Brothers, in 1998. Later in '98, Twiztid's debut album, Mostasteless, was released. After being signed to Island Records, the album was soon pulled from shelves and re-released. [3] After going back on Psychoapthic, Twiztid released Cryptic Collection and Freek Show in 2000. Freek Show debuted #51 on Billboard charts, proving the group could do well on their own. [4] Since then, the duo have stuck with the Psychopathic label and even helped sign artists Blaze Ya Dead Homie and old friend The R.O.C.
In September 2007, it was announced that Monoxide tore his MCL in a motorized scooter accident, forcing Twiztid's "Toxic Terror Tour" to be postponed. After taking time off to fully recover, the tour resumed in spring 2008.
