Band members described their home town as a place where "old people retire" such that "it's like the walking dead". Geffen Records, who had recently been acquired by MCA Records, bought the band a spot on the second stage of the 2003 Ozzfest tour. Despite being in contract limbo for quite a while, things were looking up when Geffen indicated they would finance a second album, even putting them on tour with Dope twice in 2004 and recording demos in June with Edsel Dope. They toured with Dope and Motograter in 2004 as part of the American Apathy tour.
In July 2005, Twisted Method went on an "indefinite hiatus" after guitarist Andrew Howard and drummer Ben Goins had quit the band. Howard left because he wanted to be with his family after becoming a father, and Goins "left the band for God".
Andrew Howard was found dead on Friday afternoon of September 16, 2005. He was only 23 years old. Over four years after his passing, his death still remains unsolved. Remaining Twisted Method members, Derrick Tribbett and Derek DeSantis formed a new metal group named MakeShift Romeo.
Aside from Makeshift Romeo, vocalist Derrick "Tripp" Tribbett is filling in on bass for Dope, and bassist Derek DeSantis has joined the band EkoTren, who is currently on tour with Ill Nino. Tribbett also recorded solo material under the name Sinister and collaborated with John Rich.

Twisted Method Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Changed yeah you haven't changed yeah you're still the same you haven't fucking changed
Quit comin around like you act hard.
You sick bitch, Oh my GOD!
I know he's comin for you
I feel this it's way in my mind
I find I can't hide
And you know everything'll be OK
Oh, I feel bitter inside knowing that I just cannot get away
From this pain that you're causing me
I could never love someone who's so fake
We do it just like this
You say you know all about me
You know the inside of my world
Then why the fuck do I feel so cold
[Chorus]
We do it just like this
You say you know all about me
You know the inside of my world
Then why the fuck do I feel so cold
I see right through your plastic face.
Which I love to degrade
I know he's cummin on you
I can't wait until you fuckin bleed again and again yeah you fuckin bitch.
Just get away from me.
And you know everything'll be OK.
Oh, I feel bitter inside knowing that I just cannot get away.
From this pain that you're causing me.
I hope he beats your guts until you bleed!
[Chorus]
Get it get it
Get it get it

These guys were amazing when I saw them at Ozzfest 03. Then Andy died 🙁 and after Makeshift Romeo, I never thought I'd see ANY of them musically again.
Imagine my surprise when I turned on VH1 a few years later and saw Derrick on DOL.
I miss these guys something fierce. ❤️ Nothing like it nowadays.
