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.

Combichrist Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Don't tell me how to talk or way to live my life
Fuck that shit, fuck that shit
Every time I'm right a little part of you die
Fuck that shit, fuck that shit
Should I ever be punished for crossing the line?
Fuck that shit, fuck that shit
It was made for those who can't think for themselves
Fuck that shit, fuck that shit
(A little part of you) DIE! (16x)
You keep judging my process, never what I think
Fuck that shit, fuck that shit
I'm just a drowning maggot in your world of life
Fuck that shit, fuck that shit
You pretend to be god, you try to fuck me in the end
Fuck that shit, fuck that shit
Consequence, I'll fucking shoot you in the head
Fuck that shit, fuck that shit
(A little part of you) DIE! (16x)
Revolt
It's revolution
Bring out the guillotine
Revolt
It's the final solution
Bring out the guillotine
Fuck that shit, fuck that shit (4x)
(A little part of you) DIE! (16x)
Fuck that shit
Revolt
It's revolution
Bring out the guillotine
Revolt
It's the final solution
Bring out the guillotine
(A little part of you) DIE! (8x)

The lyrics to Combichrist's song "Fuck That Shit" are provocative and rebellious. The lyrics address the frustrations of individuals who feel that they are being stifled or judged by society. In the opening lines, the lyrics suggest that this generation is on a path of self-destruction. The singer then declares that he does not want anyone to dictate how he should live his life. He notes that every time he is right, he feels that a little part of the judgmental person dies.
The lyrics then explore the idea of punishment for crossing a line or challenging authority. The singer proclaims that he doesn't believe he should ever be punished for such actions. He calls out people who can't think for themselves and asserts that his music is for those who dare to be independent. The singer then repeats the phrase "A little part of you dies" repeatedly, creating a sense of anger and defiance.
The final lines of the song offer a call to revolt, suggesting that the solution to the issues discussed earlier is to bring out the guillotine. This is a metaphor for a complete overthrow of authority, and it shows the singer's belief that the only way to fight against oppressive people is with violence.
Overall, "Fuck That Shit" is a song that emphasizes individuality and resistance against societal pressures. It encourages people to rebel against authority figures and pursue their own goals without fear of punishment or retribution.
