1) Electro-Industri… Read Full Bio ↴There are, at least, two artists with this name.
1) Electro-Industrial project from Chemnitz, Germany, founded in 1994 by Dirk Steyer. Right after Kay Resch followed his musical inspiration and joined the project.
Inspired by Electro-/Techno-Acts of the early nineties, 1996 Accessory themselves published a first tape: "Electronic Controlled Mind". Half a year later followed the official limited CD-release of "Electronic Controlled Mind" on the small label SD-Image. Further followed in self-release 1998 the tape "Injection".
At the end of the millennium Ivo Lottig joined the band Accessory. From now onwards he was a good support live as well as in the studio. In springtime 2000 Accessory went on tour through Germany for 3 weeks with AND ONE. At this time Kay Resch split up from the band and Jukka Sandeck came as the new third man.
Right after the label-contract with the record company OUT OF LINE followed. So, it happened that at the beginning of the year 2001 the first really official album "jukka2147.de" was released and it excited the German electro-scene as well as the international scene. Directly after the release the band had a tour again through Germany with Terminal Choice.
At the end of 2001 the EP "Deadline" was released, which brought up the Hit-Song with the same name Deadline". The breakthrough was done, what was also stated at the tour of 5 weeks with Hocico in March/April 2002. Everywhere, at home and in foreign countries Accessory excited its audience.
At the end of 2002 Accessory published the Single "I say go", which was pioneering for the album "Titan", what was released in May 2003. Titan successfully continued the style and trend of Accessory ... and gave the band an enormous growth of new fans all over the world.
In December 2003 Jukka Sandeck leaves the band because of professional reasons. However, it went on straight foreward. A new album "Forever & Beyond" came out in April 2005. The first pressing of the album was released in a glamorous digipak inclusive a bonus CD with special songs and videos.
Afterwards a short production break followed in which mastermind Dirk finished a one year training as sound engineer. But in spring 2007 Accessory came back in concentrated energy as usual with the song “Ewigkeit”. Just a few months later the EP “Holy Machine” was released under Out of Line Music in August 2007. At the same time Ivo Lottig left the band because of job-related reasons.
In autumn 2007 Mike Koenigsberger accompanied Accessory. Together they finished the work on the latest album “More than Machinery” which was released in March 2008.

2nd Chance
Accessory Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I’ve never wanted more
Losing all that I’ve admired
Like a sailor on shore
I’m begging for some kindness
I’ve never hoped for more
That’s all what I confess
I’m sorry that you made me cry
I’m sorry that you felt delight
I ask you for a second chance
- though it makes no sense
These desperate excesses
To get your graceful sight
To sense your roaming lashes
To keep the grateful light
The race that’s not required
An end I’ll never find
I’m sick of being tired
I guess I waste my time
The lyrics of Accessory's song 2nd Chance speak of unfulfilled desires and the loss of admiration that comes with them. The singer compares their situation to that of a sailor on shore, who is no longer able to navigate the open sea. They beg for kindness, something they have never hoped for, and confess that it is what they adore. Despite acknowledging the pain caused by the person they are addressing, the singer asks for a second chance, admitting that it may not make logical sense to do so.
In the second verse, the singer expresses desperate excesses in their attempts to catch the attention of the person they are addressing. They long to see their graceful sight and sense their roaming lashes (perhaps a reference to the way someone's eyelashes move when they blink or look around). They want to keep the grateful light, which could mean anything from a metaphorical sense of hope to the actual light that emanates from this person.
The final stanza mentions a race that's not required and an end that the singer will never find. The exhaustion they feel is tangible, and they are aware that they waste their time in their current state. The lyrics convey a sense of longing and sadness, while also acknowledging the futility of holding onto something that may no longer be there.
