Rammstein is a German industrial metal band. Most of their songs are sung in German, and as such, there are many people (Some of which, I know.) that have learnt German, for the sole purpose of understanding their lyrics. In addition to being known for very controversial songs, Rammstein is also known for their stage shows. As such, a couple of the videos I post will come from their DVD, Völkerball. Also, if you aren't familiar with this band, don't know German, and want to find the translated lyrics, I highly recommend Herzeleid.com Although, the owner has seemed to disappear, and as such about half of their latest album isn't translated.
This first song, Mein Teil, ("My Part") is my personal favorite. It's based on a true story about someone that found a willing person to be eaten. And yes, "teil" ("part") has two meanings here.
Next is Feuer Frei! ("Fire At Will!"). Other bands rock. Rammstein burns!
And lastly, Frühling in Paris, ("Springtime in Paris") which is a slow song, and one of my favorites from their latest album, Liebe Ist Für Alle Da. ("Love Is For Everyone")
It would be awesome to see Rammstein live! Their live performances would be a sight to see!
ReplyDeleteYessss, great band, but I think they wont come here to Tenerife...
ReplyDeletelol I can't stand Rammstein. I definitely have respect for them though.
ReplyDeleteI used to love Rammstein, haven't listened to them much lately though. I think my tastes have changed, but they are good for a listen every now and then.
ReplyDeletenever liked them
ReplyDeleteLove a bit of Rammstein.
ReplyDeleteI've seen them live! Awesome!
ReplyDeletewent to their last concert here, there was a guy literally on fire haha, no kidding
ReplyDeleteWhat ? I've never heard this last song! is it new or something?
ReplyDeleteI used to listen to a lot of these guys!
ReplyDeletewait, what? "found a willing person to be eaten"?
ReplyDeleteThat is just insane.
Always loved these guys, hard hitting and edgy like NIN, but as intricate as The Cult...
ReplyDeletei saw them on their first german tour, was amazing
ReplyDelete:D
must be what 15years ago now?
not really my style at this point. Might be some appreciation to be had, still, if I am ever inclined to explore them further.
ReplyDeleteThey're on my iPod, some great music over the years.
ReplyDeleteawesome band - awesome songs!
ReplyDeleteI love these guys. However, I didn't learn German just for them. I learned it in high school because we had to take a language and it was unique. And now... I know what they're singing. And I can appreciate their songs even more.
ReplyDeleteThis kinda music is too hardcore for me...
ReplyDeletethese guys are pretty good. I heard that they're actually registered pyrotechnics so that they can do their own effects on stage
ReplyDeleteyeeah, it's a great band with best live perfomance ever! Their shows are exciting, so much fire, pyroeffects, the quality of sound are excellent! They are the best! All albums and ive shows you can find at http://www.torrentoff.com
