He is active as a singer and songwriter not only for Deine Lakaien, but also for several side and solo projects.
He guards his private life very carefully; in interviews, he rarely speaks about himself and the year of his birth remains a mystery.
And yet in the interview to Swiss on-line magazine Art-Noir[1] on February 23, 2011, he mentioned that "He is now 46".
