With their musical roots in bands like Klinik or Suicide Commando this release got lots of admiration as well as criticism but all agreed on one thing: “Voll auf die Fresse, voll auf den Dancefloor.” Full in the face, full on the dance floor! This album Paranoid Destruction entered the DAC (Deutsche Alternative Charts) at Number 7, and AGONOIZE remained in the charts for 8 weeks.
Their second release Open the Gate / To Paradise entered the DAC top 10.
The album, which saw the light of day in October 2004, eradicated all comparisons to other bands and shows what enormous potential is simmering in AGONOIZE.
Club hits alternate with atmospheric songs without the album being boring. Of course this will also raise some questions, but those who saw AGONOIZE live are convinced that they put on a unique show. The live performances with their captive and sometimes brutal scenes show the deepest abyss of mankind and hold the audience spellbound.
Established at the end of 2002 by Mike Johnson and Olli Senger, it soon became apparent that to have a real good presence on stage they needed a good front man. This person was found in the form of front man Chris L. Now nothing stood in the way of AGONOIZE building up the group.
The album and the resulting spin-off numbers were easily written, and following the first concert after the release of their first MCD, nothing could stop them. Their first concert was in April ’04 in Edinburgh, at the Dark City Festival with VNV Nation. This was followed by a concert in Berlin as the support act of [:SITD:], who in return provided a great remix of the Paranoid Destruction MCD.

Agonoize Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
"Kein zweites Mal!" hab ich mir geschworen
Doch jedes Mal, da wurde ich schwach
Und jedes Mal hast du mich ausgelacht
Du bist so kalt
Als Schatten meinerselbst find ich keine Ruh'
Ein jedes Wort von dir, ein Schlag in mein Gesicht
Du rammst den Dolch hinein, bis die Klinge bricht
Du bist so kalt
Ich bin schon tot - eiskalt
Dein kaltes Herz erfüllt kein Licht
So tief in mir, da verblute ich
Ich hab gespürt, wie meine Seele bricht
Ich bin bereit… töte mich!
Dein Blick so leer, denn er verrät mir nichts
Doch wie ein Narr, ganz stumm verharre ich
Mein kranker Geist stirbt ohne dich
Ich bin bereit… töte mich!
Töte mich
Ich konnt es nicht sehen, ich konnt es nicht spüren
Ich war wohl zu blind um dich zu verstehen
Die Wunde, sie klafft, zerrüttet mein Sein
Doch jedes Mal trittst du tiefer hinein
The lyrics to Agonoize's "Seelenbrecher" explore the destructive power of a toxic relationship. The singer has lost faith in love and relationships, but every time they fall weak to the manipulations and abuse of their partner. The partner is described as cold and heartless, causing the singer to feel like a shadow of themselves, unable to find peace. Every word from their partner is like a punch to their face, and the partner continues to push until the singer is willing to end their life.
The singer's desperation and desperation to escape the relationship is palpable, as they plea for their partner to kill them, ending the pain once and for all. The partner is described as having a blank expression, revealing nothing about their intentions or feelings. The singer's mind is consumed by thoughts of their partner, egging them on to take drastic measures. In the end, the singer feels shattered and broken, with their partner having driven a deep wound that leaves them struggling to recover.

Den Glauben hab ich schon viel zu lang verloren
I have lost faith a long time ago
"Kein zweites Mal!" hab ich mir geschworen
I swore to myself that it won't happen again
Doch jedes Mal, da wurde ich schwach
But every time, I became weak
Und jedes Mal hast du mich ausgelacht
And every time, you laughed at me
Du bist so kalt
You are so cold
Als Schatten meinerselbst find ich keine Ruh'
As a shadow of myself, I find no peace
Wie im Vergiftungswahn weiß ich nicht, was ich tu
Like in a poisoned delirium, I don't know what to do
Ein jedes Wort von dir, ein Schlag in mein Gesicht
Every word from you is a punch in my face
Du rammst den Dolch hinein, bis die Klinge bricht
You thrust the dagger until the blade breaks
Ich bin schon tot - eiskalt
I am already dead - ice-cold
Dein kaltes Herz erfüllt kein Licht
Your cold heart does not have any light in it
So tief in mir, da verblute ich
I bleed deep inside me
Ich hab gespürt, wie meine Seele bricht
I felt my soul break
Ich bin bereit… töte mich!
I am ready... kill me!
Dein Blick so leer, denn er verrät mir nichts
Your empty gaze reveals nothing to me
Doch wie ein Narr, ganz stumm verharre ich
But like a fool, I remain silent
Mein kranker Geist stirbt ohne dich
My sick mind dies without you
Töte mich
Kill me
Ich konnt es nicht sehen, ich konnt es nicht spüren
I couldn't see it, I couldn't feel it
Ich war wohl zu blind um dich zu verstehen
I was probably too blind to understand you
Die Wunde, sie klafft, zerrüttet mein Sein
The wound, it gapes, destroys my being
Doch jedes Mal trittst du tiefer hinein
But every time, you kick deeper into it
