Neuroticfish’s sole member was Sascha Mario Klein. Klein cites his musical inspirations as such bands as Skinny Puppy, Nine Inch Nails, and Depeche Mode, and began experimenting with music on his own in the early 90’s. After Neuroticfish was born, Klein did not make the typical efforts of a muscian to send out a demo; instead, he relied on the internet as a medium of expression for his music. Klein was eventually offered a place on a synthpop compilation called A Reflexion of Synthpop. From this point on, Neuroticfish gained popularity in the club scene, where he has made an impact ever since.
Klein gained a bit of notoriety after one of his songs contained the sample "Electronic body music is dead." It has since become somewhat of a catchphrase for Neuroticfish.
On January 4th 2008 the official Neuroticfish MySpace page had a message announcing that the band would cease to exist after its performance at the 2008 edition of the Wave Gothic Treffen festival in Leipzig, Germany.
In July 2012 the website was updated after the project seemed finished. The latest updates say that Sascha and Henning Verlage are working together during Winter 2012 and Spring 2013 on a new album.
In 2015 Neuroticfish released "A Sign Of Life", his first album in 10 years. It is exclusively sold at the band's page at Bandcamp, digitally, and physical albums only being sold at Neuroticfish's regular web page.
Mechanic of the Sequence
Neuroticfish Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I don't synchronize my life to your points of view,
I don't want to live in a way without giving,
I don't want to live in the wheel of you.
The mechanic of the sequence the power to progress,
We have no time to waste no time to relax,
The passion of beginning it's the pleasure of the end,
To a state we never meant,
To a state we never meant.
You, you act like a puppet,
You, you can move without strings,
You, you want to be remoted,
Because you are unable to fly without wings.
The mechanic of the sequence the power to progress,
We have no time to waste no time to relax,
The passion of beginning it's the pleasure of the end,
It's what you face we initiate to a state we never meant,
To a state we never meant,
To a state we never meant.
The lyrics of Neuroticfish's song "Mechanic of the Sequence" seem to suggest a rebellion against conformity and a desire for individuality. The singer declares that they do not empathize or synchronize with the way others live their lives or their points of view. Rather, they want to live a life full of giving and refuse to be trapped in the monotony of conformity. The repetition of "the mechanic of the sequence", implies that society operates in a mechanical, predetermined manner, and that it is now time to break free from these constraints. The lines "we have no time to waste no time to relax" further indicate that life is short and should be seized, rather than being wasted on a meaningless routine.
The second stanza continues this theme of independence, as the singer asserts that those conforming to society's demands are acting like puppets, moving without any real control over their actions. They want to be remote controlled rather than flying freely on their own without any strings attached. The line "the passion of beginning it's the pleasure of the end" suggests that the singer is advocating for taking risks and experiencing life's pleasures, rather than following a prescribed path towards success. Overall, this song is a call to rebel against societal conventions and to seek a life full of individuality, passion, and purpose.
