"I have nothing to excuse myself for; I do what I do and I'd do it again"

Perhaps the most successful band in the genre, Combichrist has placed itself as a pivotal element within the EBM community. Throughout its career, spanning now almost 10 years, the band has toured all over the world, even opening for Rammstein during one of their US Tour, gathering a legion of fans.
Having developed a unique and easily recognizable sound, and in the middle of a massive European tour, the band stopped at the Summer Darkness Festival in Utrecht, performing to a soldout crowd.
Andy Laplegua, the singer and mastermind of Combichrist took some time to discuss not only the band's career, but also to respond to some of the criticisms that have been raised against it.
