Rammstein?

[IMP]

German rock/metal band. very very good. just found. dig much. no idea what they're saying, but loving it...

anybody else ever heard them?

[Sword Of The Heretic]

Love em!! I'm a HUGE fan of theirs. I have all of their albums, and a couple of compilations with rare songs, and an Amerika single.

[silent_observer]

Have every album.I find the band rather interesting.Most of their lyrics are dumb, the music is repetative and not that agressive they are trying to make it.A good band, though.Dunno why, but I like them.Some lyrics are awesome, eg Alter Mann.That's fantastic.

[Sword Of The Heretic]

Indeed. Sehnsucht was the first album I picked up in 1998. Alter Mann is my favorite song among many here. Spiel Mit Mir and Klavier are also outstanding tracks. I initially thought that was their first album, until they released Herzeleid in the States in 1999, and I learned that was actually their first album.
Mutter was the first album I literally waited for 3 years to get, and I wan't disappointed. Sonne, Mein Herz Brennt, and Rein Raus are some great ones.

I'm too much into this band to dislike anything they do. Flawed or not, I appreciate everything they've ever put out.

[whitefrozen]

pretty decent band i think

[Rexorcist]

Love em. Mutter was a masterpiece.

[Gryphon]

saw them on the 1st Family Values tour. great show. lots of pyro.

[Johnny-Esa]

RAMMSTEIN ist wirklich fantastisch!!!

[pop sucks]

I really like Reise Reise. MY friend has Mutter as well and I listened to it about 3 times and I think it has nothing to offer compared to Reise Reise.

Heh, it always depends on which album you hear first.

[pop sucks]

Well, I didn't like Reise Reise at first either. The 2nd listen hooked me. You can't deny both albums are really different so it's not just because I heard Reise Reise first that I like it best.

[Kyte]

deffinatly i heard Rosenrot first but then went back to hear some of there older stuff. I have to agree Mutter has got to be the best one out of all of them.

[PhoenixRising]

I actually just discovered them like a week-two weeks ago..love 'em!

my fav songs are: "Du Hast" and "Rammstein"..they both has some heavy riffs that are just flippin sweet!

[Wilkins]

Amerika is an awesome song me thinks!

[marci_r]

Well they have a few good songs, but most of the lyrics are crap and I don't like the band's attitude.

[the EDGE]

ramm rules man, and I have heard from others that their live performance is really wild!

[MilkyPeterson]

German rock/metal band. very very good. just found. dig much. no idea what they're saying, but loving it...

anybody else ever heard them?

no duh weve heard of them they are damn famous. You talk about the as if they are kvlt as some one man sweedish black metal side project.

[PhoenixRising]

dude chill out ok..some people just haven't heard of them. and if you're gonna be that way, then take a hike

[rebornsacrifice]

btw, I really like this band. Reise Reise is a great album and song. I really like Rosenrot too. I havent heard enough of the early stuff to really comment. Also, Sword....im sure you have the DVD right? If you do, is it worth the money?

[Sword Of The Heretic]

Milky, that was unneccesary.

I have both of their videos.
I have Live Aus Berlin on VHS. The reason for that is because Buck Dich was removed from the DVD version. If anyone has ever seen that live video, you know what I'm talking about.

Lichtspielhaus, on the other hand, is totally awesome, and definitely worth the money. It has all their videos all the way up to the Mutter album, plus interviews and behind the scenes stuff with the band, like making of the videos, etc.
There's also a few songs from various live shows thrown in there, too.

[Zhou Tai 04]

I find them to be insanely boring.

[savatage]

They make me sick to my stomach. Musically I only like Sehnsucht.... but lyrically they truly make me sick.

[pop sucks]

They make me sick to my stomach. Musically I only like Sehnsucht.... but lyrically they truly make me sick.

how? I find some of their lyrics to be quite humorous.

[PhoenixRising]

maybe its the fact he can't understand them...

[Kyte]

Just because you cant understand them dosnt mean you should hate them i mean i listen to japanese metal even though I cant understand it dosnt mean that it makes me sick it just means that i heandbang to stuff that i really dont know what they sing about.

[Saint Raven]

maybe its the fact he can't understand them...

I would imagine it's lyrics like 'Spiel mit mir' most likely.

I remember hearing them on a compilation of industrial stuff back in the mid '90s, my first thought was: "Hmm, sounds like Laibach".

[IMP]

yeah i havent really looked up their lyrics...i looked up a couple and they were clean...but idk about the rest.

[misterska008]

I seem to remember reading some of their translated lyrics a while back and thinking, man, this is some demented crap, but I don't mind their music. Still don't listen to them though.

[VIA DOLOROSA]

bwahahahaha! oh man.....rammstein? i guess there could be worse

[misterska008]

bwahahahaha! oh man.....rammstein? i guess there could be worse

Glad I made you chuckle.

[trakiec]

In my opinion it is the only one good modern band.

[Sword Of The Heretic]

YES!! Another Rammstein fan. :headbang:

[trakiec]

The "Völkerball" DVD is amazing and I recommend it to everyone who likes the band! It includes concerts in France, England, Japan and Russia. What I like the most is that Rammstein play 100% for the fans!

[Johnny-Esa]

Not about Rammstein, though I like it. But I 'd like to greet you and say I am glad to meet you, as I visited Bulgaria (Varna) in 1990 and enjoyed my stay very much!!! Besides, my article was published in a compilation of articles issued by Varna Technical University and the Ukrainian Ministry of Science and Education. (I am Ukrainian, though I live in Russia).

Thank you very much! I am also very glad to meet you. Some of my best friends are from Russia and Ukraine (they live in Bulgaria) and I feel kindly towards your nations and culture. Besides the Russian heavy metal band Aria is one of my favorite bands:headbang: .( Rammstein made a very interesting cover of Aria`s Shtiel by the way)

[Johnny-Esa]

Hi again! I also like Rammstein's version of Schtiel! I also keep contact via e-mail with Sergey Terentyev Aria's former solo gutarist. Now he has his own band, 'Arteria'.

[Porgel]

As a Dutchmen i'm not fond of Germans....
(but i don't really hate them either i guess)

[Johnny-Esa]

Hi! And what are you fond of? What are your favorite bands? Let's discuss them in the other threads!:electric:
:headbang: Hope you are not against Ukrainians (it's my nationality):headbang: Do you like the Ukrainian band Holy Blood?

[Porgel]

haha ukrain never had a war with The Netherlands and didn't won the World cup Final in 1974 against The Netherlands...i have a shirt from Andriy Schevchenko so i don't hate ukrain....but i don't like metal if i'm very honest....

[Johnny-Esa]

What style of music do you prefer?

[Porgel]

indie, post-hardcore, hardcore and some times hiphop ;)...i like Shadow Gallery, that's metal

[Wilkins]

As a Dutchmen i'm not fond of Germans....
(but i don't really hate them either i guess)

So a Dutchmen is to German as a Scotsman is to an Englishman? ;)

But yes, I am extremely fond of Rammstein. Probably one of the best mainstream rock/metal bands... Catchy and full of gimmicks that nobody should try and repeat

[Porgel]

a lot of Germans are coming to our beaches, so they're good for our economy

[trakiec]

Yea, Shevchenko is a very good player but Dimitar Berbatov is the best :)

[godsrockess]

I liked these guys when i was about 13 or something...listened to them all the time...still got some of their stuff on my computer but dont really like them all that much now apart from a few odd songs.

[Henrik]

bwahahahaha! oh man.....rammstein? i guess there could be worsesays the guy with some fairy looking emo kid in his avatar.

[trakiec]

I listen to mostly to heavy metal but I like them because they are different. They make an amazing show and play 100% for the fans. Besides they are quite original although some compare them to Laibach. However I don`t see any similarities apart from the German language (although not everything is in German since Laibach are from Slovenia). I have listened to Laibach albums for the purpose and I didn`t liked them. Strange, monotonous noises and almost no guitars, more experimental music than metal! But I really like Rammstein especially Mutter and the following albums.

:electric: I am going to see the Kings Of Metal soon! Other Bands play Manowar kill ;)

[Tassiemetal]

Rammstein are okay - A mate said to be that they aren't serious and are in the biz to play music, tour, and have a good time (as the lyrics reflect). You ain't going to get any serious environmental, political, statements from them.
