I like "Du Hast", but that's about it.

Rammstein are good! Sonne's one of my favourites. They produce some real good music!

<3 Rammstein. They kick arse.

My favorite tracks by them are "Mein Hertz Brennt," "Sonne," "Mutter," "Mein Teil," "Rammstein," and "Wollt Ihr Das Bett In Flammen Sehen."

Not sure what id say are my faverate tracks. There all good in there own way.

I wish they would hurry up and get a new album out though, or even tour. I so want to see them live.

I appreciate their sense of humor and enjoy some of their songs.

"Du Hast" is cute by hate the fact that people actually believed that the English version was a direct translation. For the last time, "Du Hast" does NOT translate to "you hate". It means "you have". The whole song is a parody of traditional German wedding vows.

The same thing happened when Nena translated "99 Luftballoons" into English - the lyrics were still about nuclear war being started by a general firing at balloons, but they were now incredibly lame. Which is why the German version hit #2 here in the States and the English version sank without a trace.

I'm not as big a fan of Rammstein as I was when I was a Freshman in high school, but I still find them listenable. Without them I certainly wouldn't have opened my ears up to rock music from continental Europe and would've missed out on bands like Kraftwerk, Mew and the Shout Out Louds either entirely or far later than I did.

I have their Sehnsucht album. Great stuff. Favorite tracks are "Engel" "Sehnsucht," and "Tier."

By the way, on a certain issue of the Sehnsucht album there is the English version of "Du Hast." I have the track in question, but why are they singing it as "you hate?" I took German for a little while in high school, so I can can agree that it does not correctly translate to "you hate", but doesn't anyone know the reason why they sang it that way in English?

my freind jesse anderson really likes them andm ost modern metal bands I prefer the old school hair metal bands aerosmtih, black sabath and best metal bandv ever deep purple theo nly modern metal I like is metlica, slipknot and disturbed and acdc but lmao it sounds like old school hair metal like acdc always were epic win yo.

I love them too, but I think the lyrics don't always match up to the intensity of the music, because they are not always that serious. Du Hast is overrated. I think their best song is Seeman from the first album, but Wo Bist du is amazing as well.

i love this band, i find just listening to the music funny, once i played America through my teacher's speakers (we're allowed to plug in our ipods and play music in his class:D) and my freinds we're hysterical

no i don't like them i love them!
i've been obsessed with them for years now i don't actually remember for how long but whatever!
i have many many favorites it's so hard to choose but here are some:
wollt ihr das bett in flammen sehen?, bück dich, adios, wo bist du, mann gegen mann, rammstein, du hast, keine lust, engel, dalai lama, nebel, ohne dich, sonne, zwitter, tier

i'll stop now because i know i'll mention all of their songs if i don't, haha

i am so looking forward to their new album! yay lol.


edit: yes belladonna, that is indeed rammstein.

Kraftwerk is way cooler than Rammstein.

Rammstein is ok, though.

Jawhol - Ich bin engels with a historical family association with aircraft.

I reckon that Flake is on the scale, and if not he has masterfully created a stage persona that mimics it. This is based on the video for "p****" where he stims with his free hand from time to time, and also a certain musical sense that I hear on Engel, a bodily awareness thing going on with the guitar player (I only know Sehnsucht).

One English critic called Rammstein "music to invade Poland by", BUT the members of Rammstein are most definitely not right wing.

There's been other bands who were left or anti wing that sounded militaristic, Crass were a good example of this. Alternative Ulster by Stiff Little Fingers springs to mind. "Fascist Groove Thang" is perhaps the example par excelllence, as it is overtly anti fascist yet could well have gone down a storm at Nuremburg. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lV5dbcOmw6I

Deary deary bloody me - the normal friendly word for a little cat is now censored by ze uber kontrol speech stasi! There is a british town called Scunthorpe, that usually gets through.
