Roger Miret was born in Havana, Cuba.[2] He is the older half-brother of Madball frontman, Freddy Cricien. The two have the same mother, who is of Cuban descent, and different fathers, hence the different last names.[3]

Miret was incarcerated on a drug charge in the late 1980s, spending almost two years in jail.[4] In a 2011 interview, he stated that he became involved in it because he was living in poverty, squatting buildings, and his then partner was pregnant.[5] After being released, he started supporting PETA campaigns, as well as other non-profit organizations, and followed a vegetarian diet for many years.[5][6]

Nowadays, he does not smoke and does not use recreational drugs, except for an occasional drink.
