NON PHIXION (pronounced non-fiction) was a hardcore hip-hop group formed in 1995 in Brooklyn, New York. It consisted of three MCs -- Ill Bill, Sabac Red, and Goretex -- plus DJ Eclipse. Ill Bill and Goretex are considered to be along with a few other key figures responsible for orchestrating the booming and highly popular "Underground Rap" scene in New York City in the early nineties. The group was originally formed in 1995 by Ill Bill and MC Serch of 3rd Bass fame after many years of Bill, Goretex and Necro working together as a unit after growing up together in Glenwood Projects, which is located in Canarsie, Brooklyn.

Ill Bill and Necro's short lived "New Minority" was a stepping stone for them as a rap act after disbanding their thrash metal band "Injustice" who had opened up for such popular thrash and death metal bands such as Sepultura, Obituary and Napalm Death. Ill Bill and Goretex's "The Dead Celebrities" was their next musical entity, which ran from 1992-1993 and can be found on Ill Bill's Early Years cd's as well as Necro's. Their second offering, the extreme "Department Of Forensics" which was active from 1993-1995 and also had featured producer 10K who went on to do early production for Non Phixion, was an experimental hardcore rap outfit combining horror elements with urban realism sounding like a cross between N.W.A and The Geto Boys on L.S.D. After Ill Bill having a meeting with MC Serch, who was in his own words "Looking to form an all white group of MC's that rivaled the likes of Wu Tang Clan in skill and overall talent", they released their first single Legacy b/w No Tomorrow on Serch's own Serchlite Records that year.

However, by late 1997, Serch and Non Phixion had parted ways. It was around this time that Bill started Uncle Howie Records and released Non Phixion's critically acclaimed "I Shot Reagan" single which was influenced by punk group Suicidal Tendencies own "I Shot Reagan". Originally all of Non Phixion's music was to be released through Hebrew National Records which was Ill Bill and Goretex's short lived business venture which later became Uncle Howie Records inspired by Howie Tennenbaum ,Bill's drug addicted biological uncle.The group featured unique subject matter such as government conspiracies, secret assassinations, alien cover-ups, drug addictions and occult and kabbalah sciences. After previous record deals with Matador and Geffen their deal with Geffen fell apart, due to mismanagement and the group themselves issued a statement claiming MC Serch destroyed their deal and business ties to Geffen Records due to MC Serch's questionable financial ethics. ...show less
