Norway (2003 – present)
“Combichrist” is an aggrotech group, formed in Norway and currently based in the United States.
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.
Their new album, Making Monsters, has had full tracks available for streaming on the website, each track being rolled out for a new one. Combichrist will be undertaking a tour in support of the new album in late 2010, with Aesthetic Perfection and iVardensphere 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.

First found out about this band when they were headlining for Rammstein. In fact, I wasn't turned on by the first music they played and decided to ditch the concert arena until Rammstein came on stage. Now a year later, I stumbled upon Combichrist and listened to "Sent to Destroy" and "Intruder Alert". WTF, why did I not pay attention to Combichrist earlier? Now I regret ever ditching the arena when they came to my city to play. :/

Don't you dare to say RIP to Apoptygma Berzerk. Also, Combichrist is becoming mainstream, not indie. Maybe they're hipsters, but indie never.
