In 2003 Andy LaPlegua of "Icon of Coil" wrote a few power noise/techno cross over tracks under the name of "D.R.I.V.E.". This was changed to "Combichrist" when the debut album, "The Joy of Gunz" was set to be released on Out Of Line. The name Combichrist originates from a hardcore fanzine LaPlegua made during the late 90s, with "JR Ewing" guitarist Håkon Mella.
The follow up EPs, and the clamour for live shows, sent Combichrist out on the road where they would become known for their strong and energetic performances.
Their second EP, "Sex, Drogen und Industrial", spent 7 weeks at number one in the DAC charts.
In March of 2007 they released their third album "What The Fuck Is Wrong With You People?". "Today We Are All Demons", was released on January 20th, 2009.
The band had been selected to support industrial metal band "Rammstein" for their 2009 European tour and continued to support them during the 2010 part of the tour.
August 2010 saw the release of "Making Monsters", which had full tracks available for streaming on the website, each track being rolled out for a new one. Combichrist undertook a tour in support of the new album in late 2010, with "Aesthetic Perfection" and "iVardensphere" as the support bands.
Their most recent album, "No Redemption", was released in January of 2013 in both single and 2CD versions. This album was the official soundtrack album for the video game "Devil May Cry". The limited edition bonus CD was essentially a greatest hits compilation.
March 2014 will see the release of a new album titled "We Love You", with an accompanying tour of North America starting in April. "William Control" and "New Years Day" have been announced as the support bands.
Combichrist have had much more success than many of the other acts emerging from the electronic underground and the band have become one of the dark electro scene's most popular live acts.
The roster of live members is currently Joe Letz (ex "Genitorturers"), Mr Petersen, Z_Marr (ex "Hell Trash"), Kourtney Klein (who also played drums for the reformed "Nitzer Ebb") and Trevor Friedrich who was the drummer for "Eighteen Visions" and "Imperative Reaction". Past live members include Håkon Mella, Bjoern Petersen, Syn M, Shaun Frandsen & Jon H.

Anatomy
Combichrist Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I don't know what to do,
So senseless,
No sense at all
The lyrics to Combichrist's song Anatomy capture the feeling of hopelessness and confusion that can arise from the chaotic and overwhelming nature of life. The repetition of "I don't know what to do" conveys a sense of desperation and helplessness, as if the singer is at a loss for how to make sense of their experiences. The phrase "no sense at all" underscores this feeling of disorientation and frustration, emphasizing the idea that the world can be a confusing and senseless place.
On a deeper level, the lyrics may also speak to the human condition more broadly. We are all faced with moments of uncertainty and doubt, and sometimes it can be difficult to find a way forward. The lyrics of Anatomy reflect this struggle, and the sense of longing for clarity and understanding that comes with it.
Line by Line Meaning
I don't know what to do,
I am in a state of confusion and do not have any clear path forward.
I don't know what to do,
I am completely clueless about my current situation and cannot make any decisions.
So senseless,
Everything around me seems pointless and without any purpose.
No sense at all
I cannot find any rational explanation or logical reasoning for the events happening around me.

2 lines repeated 20 times. The strange thing is, this song describes my life better than almost any other song. Leave it to Combichrist to channel nihilism into pure awesome.
