Methods of Mayhem is the 1999 debut album by Methods of Mayhem. It was Tommy Lee's first album since leaving Mötley Crüe earlier that year. The album is certified Gold by the RIAA
Former Mötley Crüe drummer Tommy Lee's new musical venture, Methods of Mayhem, is the product of his collaboration with rapper TiLo. Sparked by pent-up frustration as a result of jail stints, run-ins with the law, and tabloid reporters, Lee pulled together numerous stars from the worlds of rock and hip-hop.
Additional personnel include: George Clinton, Kid Rock, Lil' Kim, The Crystal Method, Snoop Dogg, Fred Durst and Mix Master Mike.
It is an enhanced audio CD which contains regular audio tracks and multimedia computer files. The album booklet "ill-ustrations" features the artwork of Derek Hess.
"Get Naked" and "New Skin" were released as singles for the album.
The supporting tour for the album featured Stephen Perkins (Jane's Addiction) on drums.
"Crash" was featured in the video game Gran Turismo 3: A-Spec and the theatrical trailer for the film Driven. "Hypocritical" was featured in the video game Dave Mirra Freestyle BMX 2.
