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.
Merci Beaucoup

The lyrics of Slick Idiot's song "Merci Beaucoup" seem to express frustration with the monotony and artificiality of modern society. The first verse lists a series of negative adjectives ("cute cut, sterile, stale, zero, stupid") that describe the singer's perception of their surroundings. It seems that they feel hemmed in by societal norms, as indicated by the phrase "screwed from scratch" and the command to "cut your viciously amazing crap."
The chorus offers a series of thanks in different languages ("Merci Beaucoup," "Vielen Dank," "Muchas Gracias," "Arigato") followed by a declaration of intent to "bang a few" (presumably referring to playing music or having sex). The repetition of these phrases suggests a kind of superficiality, as if the singer is going through the motions of expressing gratitude without really feeling it.
The second verse continues the theme of madness and rebellion against societal norms, using a series of negative descriptors ("real nuts, nasty, plain, super sucker, sickening display") to describe the singer's own behavior. The phrase "not a clue, outrageously mad" seems to imply that the singer is acting out of confusion or desperation rather than any coherent plan.
The final two lines of the chorus ("one for all and all for you") suggest a desire for unity and connection, but the repeated phrase "once again it's time to change the rules" implies that this desire is frustrated by the rigidity of societal expectations. The final verse seems to express a plea for help or guidance in breaking free from these constraints and finding a "sweet solution."
Overall, the lyrics of "Merci Beaucoup" seem to be a critique of modern society and a call for rebellion against its constraints. The repetition of phrases in different languages suggests a kind of surface-level cultural diversity that masks deeper problems of conformity and superficiality.
