Heartbroken & Homicidal is the eighth studio album by American horrorcore duo Twiztid. Released on September 21, 2010, it features guest drums and vocals by Stefanie Eulinberg. The album focuses on the connection between love and loss, and the darkside of an individual's hurt feelings. It debuted number 29 on the Billboard 200 chart and number 3 on the Top Independent Albums and Top Rap Albums charts.
Eric Davie produced the song "Cyanide," "I'm Stuck", "What Ya Really Want" while Monoxide served as producer for the rest of the album . Additional musical production was done on 'Circles,' 'Set by Example' and 'All the Rest' by Brian Kuma.Stefanie Eulinberg, from the band Twisted Brown Trucker, provided live drums and female vocals on the songs "Circles," "Set By Example," and "All the Rest."
Heartbroken & Homicidal has a strongly rock-oriented sound. "Spiderwebs" contains "an ominous set of strings that recall some vintage Hitchcock horror a la PSYCHO", music sampled from the score to the film Death Wish II. "Apple" has a 1970s funk sound and "porn-style wah-wah". Kik Axe Music reviewer James Zahn compares "Circles" to Marilyn Manson's "The Beautiful People" and "Cyanide" to music by Mr. Bungle and White Zombie, while describing "P.S.A." as having a world music-based beat.
