Initial career (1998–2005)
Twisted Method was founded in 1998 after its band members met each other at Mariner High School.

The band signed a five-year, $5.5 million contract with MCA Records in 2002, the label issuing the band's first and only album Escape from Cape Coma in July of the following year, the title a sarcastic reference to their home town, which they described as a place where "old people retire - 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.
Hiatus and the death of Andrew Howard (2005)

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 found Christianity.

Andrew Howard was found dead on Friday afternoon of September 16, 2005. He was 23 years old. To this day, his cause of death still remains unsolved.
Post-breakup (2006–2011)
Remaining Twisted Method members, Derrick Tribbett and Derek DeSantis quickly formed a new 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 Niño. Tribbett also recorded solo material under the name Sinister and collaborated with John Rich.
Reunion (2012–present)
On October 28, 2012, Twisted Method performed a reunion show at the Dixie Roadhouse in Cape Coral, Florida. Tony Elchert of EkoTren and Virus of Dope both filled in for Andrew Howard on guitar.
On December 19, 2014, the band once again performed a reunion show. This time it was at The Buddha in Fort Myers, Florida.
