History
Sycksyde formed in 2001 when Producer and rapper Bob E Nite under the name II Rel decided to give horrorcore a try with a demo called "Can You Kill What I Kill". The demo inspired fellow friend and high school classmate Mr. Kiltcha along with Meathead to form a group called Sycksyde. The recruited other underground rappers such as Icepick Willie, Komotose, and Sinister X to the lineup and they recorded their debut album "White Crosses". Shortly after the release Sycksyde toured with Esham and Kool Keith during the summer of 2001. After 2002 Sinister X, Meathead, and Komotose left the group due to creative differences and the rest of the group decided to venture into solo projects. In 2002 White Crosses was pulled from record stores due to controversy over the songs "Four Rooms" and "Bloody Valentines" and the group was banned in over 62 countries. Bob E Nite released the first string of solo albums with "Code: Dead" in 2002 and spawned a cult-classic with "MSG: Main Street Graveyard". Icepick Willie released a solo album along with Mr. Kiltcha's "Portrait of A Serial Killer". In 2006 shortly after Bob E Nite released his 2nd solo album "Dead Again" Willie, Kiltcha, and Nite decided to reform Sycksyde with a free halloween EP titled "Lights From The Pumpkin". The album featured all the original members including a new member, Juz-10. In 2007 The group announced they were recording their long-awaited follow up to "White Crosses". In 2008 The group released their 2nd and final album together titled "Sometime's They Come Back". The album was also the groups only album to be distributed by a Major Record Label as Alternative Distribution Alliance distributed the CD's while 3SE's longtime distributor Long Range Distribution took care of the digital downloads. The album debuted at #12 on the Billboard Independent Albums Chart and #2 on the Billboard Digital Downloads Chart. It is the first and only Sycksyde album to chart in the United States and was certified Gold in 2010 by the RIAA. In 2009 Bob E Nite announced he was leaving 3SE after a falling out with Mr. Kiltcha and the group was officially disbanded.
