Slick Idiot's music is more than club-worthy, with pulsating beats and swift synthetic sounds, but it also contains a solid industrial metal foundation with thrashing innovation by Günter's unique guitar stylings and En Esch's funky beats and gruff vocals. Add to it, soul, provided by vocalist Erica Dilanjian and the additional programming and live drumming of Gregg Ziemba, and Slick Idiot provides many points of sonic titillation.
Since its inception Slick Idiot has released 3 studio albums ("DickNity", "Screwtinized" and "Sucksess") along with 2 remix albums ("ReDickulous" and "xScrewciating"). The band followed each release with a major U.S. tour and recently completed the "In The Flesh Tour" to promote the new release of "Sucksess", which saw the band play 44 cities from coast to coast.

Slick Idiot Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
That's the way it goes and that's the way we die
Feel the sparks in the night my baby
Slip into the heat I will be there
I'm your candyman, come on and take my hand
I 'll lead you out of the dark, back into light again
Feel the need to cry out baby
Tears will fall, but they don't really count
It's now or never, round and round here we go
Come softly to me, stick with me, let me know
I've got a big, fat blast
Beyond your imagination
I've got a big, fat blast
Life will never be the same
I love the sweetest things
Against your regulation
I've got a big, fat blast
I'm enjoying all the way
All the way
I'm your darkest trance, and it will make you dance
I have you in my grasp, you want to make it last
Come and run away my baby
Today will be the day it all begins
It's now or never, round and round here we go
Come softly to me, stick with me, let me know
The lyrics to Slick Idiot's song "Blast" appear to convey a sense of reckless abandon and disregard for consequences. The opening lines "Nobody gives a damn and neither do I, That's the way it goes and that's the way we die" suggest a nihilistic mindset where neither the singer nor anyone else is invested in the actions being taken. The theme of not caring about consequences is reinforced throughout the song with lyrics such as "Tears will fall, but they don't really count" and "Life will never be the same."
While the lyrics may suggest a certain level of apathy, there is also a sense of urgency and passion within the song. Lines like "Feel the sparks in the night my baby, Slip into the heat I will be there" and "Come and run away my baby, Today will be the day it all begins" suggest a desire for excitement and intensity. The singer seems to be offering themselves as a guide for this experience, with lines like "I'm your candyman, come on and take my hand, I'll lead you out of the dark, back into light again" and "I'm your darkest trance, and it will make you dance."
Overall, "Blast" appears to be a song about taking risks and living in the moment without regard for consequences. While the lyrics suggest a certain level of nihilism, there is also a sense of excitement and passion present within the words.
