The group is Redrum (Jamel Simmons, son of Danny Simmons, nephew of Russell Simmons and Rev Run) and two other emcees: Gravedigger and Tempest. FLM was an extension of the Flatlinerz (Flatline Massive) which included artists Butter, Mayhem, and OMN999 (Omen).
Def Jam targeted the Flatlinerz as an alternative to gangsta rap, which was dominating hip hop music at that time. The term "horrorcore" is a fusion of hardcore hip hop and horror.
