Merrill Nisker (born 1966 in Toronto), better known as Peaches, is an electroclash artist whose songs are mainly focused on sexuality. She lives and works in Berlin, Germany. She plays almost all the instruments for her songs, programs her own electronic beats, and produces her records.

Peaches' music is preoccupied with gender identity. Her lyrics and live shows self-consciously blur the distinction between male and female: she appears on the cover of her second album Fatherfucker with a full beard; when asked if she had chosen the title for shock value, she commented:

"Why do we call our mothers motherfuckers? Why do we stub our toe and say "Aww motherfucker!"? What is motherfucker? ...We use it in our everyday language and it's such an insanely intense word. I'm not one to shy away from these obscene terms that we actually have in our mainstream. Motherfucker is a very mainstream word. But if we're going to use motherfucker, why don't we use fatherfucker? I'm just trying to be even."

She refutes accusations of 'penis envy', preferring the term 'hermaphrodite envy', since "there is so much male and female in us all". Nevertheless, she does not shy away from identifying herself as a sexual being, although she rejects the sanitised portrayal of women in popular music.

Although she does not hold a teaching degree, she taught at private schools before her career in music.

Fancypants Hoodlum released in 1995 was released under her birth name Merrill Nisker

Members of her band are known as The Herms - JD Samson, Radio Sloan, Samantha Maloney.

Her songs have been featured in movies such as Mean Girls, My Little Eye, Lost in Translation, Waiting, and Jackass: Number Two. Her music has also been featured on Showtime's The L Word television series. Peaches performed guest vocals on P!nk's album Try This, on the song "Oh My God". Her lyrics are discussed as part of the Queer Studies course curriculum at the University Of Toronto, and she has been invited to lecture at the Contemporary Music Academy in Berlin. Her most notorious song, "Fuck The Pain Away", is also the name of an Electro night in Brighton.

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Peaches's song "Suck and Let Go" seems to be centered around the idea of release and letting go of one's inhibitions. The lines, "Suck it up, Suck it all" seem to suggest that one should absorb and take in as much as possible. However, the following phrase, "Suck and let go," appears to signify that after taking everything in, one should then let go of it all. This could possibly represent a form of therapy, where a person can vent and process emotions before finally moving on from them.

Moreover, the repetition of the phrase "Suck and let go" emphasizes the importance of this process. The song encourages the listener to suck up all that is thrown their way and to not hold back from the experience. The phrase "Suck and let go" serves as a mantra of sorts, reminding the listener that it is okay to let go and that they can move forward from any obstacle. Thus, the lyrics may suggest that one should not let things weigh them down, but should instead take it in and release it in order to move on.
