Moderat are Modeselektor and Apparat.
Moderat's formation began back in 2002 in Berlin, Germany when Sascha Ring (aka Apparat) and Gernot Bronsert and Sebastian Szary (aka Modeselektor) recorded an EP for the record label BPitch Control ("Auf Kosten der Gesundheit"). When it came time to begin working on an album, Moderat suddenly broke up.
Meanwhile Modeselektor set a milestone in German music history with their sophomore album, Happy Birthday!, including musicians such as Puppetmastaz, Maximo Park and Thom Yorke. Read Full BioModerat are Modeselektor and Apparat.

Amongst a slew of remixes for the likes of Thom Yorke and Björk, Modeselektor also went on to tour with Radiohead across Japan in 2008.
Apparat, on the other hand, moved forward with his album Walls in 2007 (after his collaboration with Ellen Allien on "Orchestra of Bubbles"), taking a musical path that was more band-oriented and kept him on tour for several years running.
2008 saw the reunion of this project and the three members of Moderat went back to the studio to continue working together and finally released their 1st full album "Moderat" in April 2009. This is a monumental 'audio-visual declaration' album, which includes ten videos by Berlin's highly regarded visualists Pfadfinderei.

Eating Hooks
Moderat Lyrics
Why must I hide
In the forest of my mind?
I want to come out of the woods
They offer me shade
A face with no name
A game I can play
But I can't beat it
Meditation, medication
I'm eating the hooks that tear me
Meditation, medication
I'm eating the hooks that tear me
I'm walking back
Through my living hell
To eat the hooks that tear
Somehow I'm not scared of this
Meditation, medication
I'm eating the hooks that tear me
Under my skin
Lies the world feeding
The cure of my sin
The cure of my sin
The cure of my sin
The cure of my sin

Why must I hide
In the forrest of my mind?
I want to come
Out of the woods.
They offer me shade,
A face with no name.
A game I can play
But I can't be dead
Meditation, medication
I'm eating the hooks that tear me.
Meditation, medication
I'm eating the hooks that tear me
I'm walking back
Through lightning and hell
To eat the hooks that tear
Somehow I'm not scared of this
Meditation, medication
I'm eating the hooks that tear me
Under my skin
Lies the world
Deep within
The cure of my sin
The cure of my sin
The cure of my sin

Everytime I'm listening to this, a great pain is taking over me. I can't describe it, I don't even get it. I'm feeling peaceful, nostalgic, empty, hopeful, sad, lonely and like this will be the soundtrack to a very special time of my life. Sounds cheesy, but this is so heavy. Sometimes I can't even listen to the song, am kind of afraid to do it. Then I feel this aching, strange mood coming up.
Even if it's so exhausting, I come back to this song again and again and I'm being confronted with my deepest thoughts like nothing else could make me feel this way.
It's like the melody, the words, all of it is captured somewhere in my soul, heart or whatsoever and listening to it reactivates this mood of me which I am constantly pushing away in my daily life. My fears, who and how I became who I am now, the friends I lost, memories which are slowly fading but not gone.
And in the end , I just need it . And I love it. Thanks Moderat.

ijust feel the same as you describe, besides the images of this beautiful and contorned man, when he shows this partial nudity so clean, pure and brave. yet i smile listening to this and specially at the end when he rises up....i feel connected deeply with the rythim, he and myself

Hi from France, a female French admirer of Moderat plus Apparat albums.... Your comment is a masterpiece in itself.. Your words are so powerful ... wow thanks so much for sharing your feelings, pain and inner intimate thoughts...I feel exactly the same... God within them mourning acutely our blue planet...
i Am You.
I feel a similar way about this song

Thank you!

I believe it's "I can't beat it" (the game) not "I can't be dead". It would make more sense. Anyway, amazing lyrics.

I never realised how beautiful and uplifting the lyrics were.
