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.

The lyrics of Combichrist's song Lying Sack of Shit are quite straightforward and need little interpretation. The song is an aggressive retort, seemingly directed towards a person who is a habitual liar and an overall unpleasant individual. The repetition of the phrase "Lying, Piece of, Sack of shit" serves to emphasize the singer's disdain for the person in question, and the warning that "the trashcan's coming, dirtbag" suggests that they will soon be discarded due to their unacceptable behavior. The repeated use of the word "bitch" also underscores the singer's frustration and anger at the subject of the song.
The overall effect of the lyrics is one of catharsis, conveying the artist's desire to call out and get rid of the toxic people that we all encounter from time to time. The raw and aggressive language of the song speaks to a sense of righteous anger, and is a rallying cry for those who refuse to tolerate deception or cruelty. By highlighting the importance of being forthright and genuine in our interactions with others, Combichrist's Lying Sack of Shit is a powerful expression of the human desire for authenticity and self-respect.
