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?”.
Their latest album, “Today We Are All Demons”, was released on January 20th, 2009.
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.
The roster of live members is currently Joe Letz (ex “Genitorturers”), Mr Petersen, Z_Marr (ex “Hell Trash”), Kourtney Klein (who also played drums for the reformed “Nitzer Ebb”) and Trevor Friedrich who was the drummer for “Eighteen Visions” and “Imperative Reaction”. Past live members include Håkon Mella, Bjoern Petersen, Syn M, Shaun Frandsen & Jon H.

"Electroheads, brace yourself for the ultimate electronic storm, COMBICHRIST! As the leading act in Techno Body Music Andy LaPlegua already earned wide-spread cult status. His current album „Today We Are All Demons“ radically combines the wild blend of EBM and techno with considerable trades of industrial and aggrotech, layered on the core of pure electronica. Especially live the cocktail evolves to a musical Hurricane of pounding Drums, whipping sequences and the explosive presence of Andy LaPlegua, for an adrenaline rush you cannot resist!" - www.amphi-festival.de
