YEAH it's good stuff... They do it just so german kids have music to shock their parents. They have a new single out (kinda political) Called "Benzin". I can't wait till the new CD "Rosenrot" is released.
ETA: the local radio station hasn't played a new Rammstein single since Du Hast came out...

I missed my chance when they came through years ago... they haven't been to the US in a while. Hopefully they'll come through again. I have one of their DVD's and their shows look crazy.

Its pretty good, though you wont actually find many Germans that will admit they listen to it...

First Album Herzeleid (heart ache) was the best for me, and the last one, Reise, Reise was pretty good though it did sound a bit softer..

They've redone a few songs (Du Hast and Engel, I believe) in English and they're terrible.

They do the music to one of those FANTASTIC! Grouchy Media tributes to our fighting men and women.  The download is worth the time invested.

Tributation


Here are the lyrics to the song "Sonne" by Rammstein, translated into English:

"Sonne"
by Rammstein

One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, out

Everyone is waiting for the light be afraid, don't be afraid the sun is shining out of my eyes it will not set tonight and the world counts loudly to ten

One Here comes the sun

Two Here comes the sun

Three It is the brightest star of them all

Four Here comes the sun

The sun is shining out of my hands it can burn, it can blind you all when it breaks out of the fists it lays down hotly on the face it will not set tonight and the world counts loudly to ten

One Here comes the sun

Two Here comes the sun

Three It is the brightest star of them all

Four Here comes the sun

Five Here comes the sun

Six Here comes the sun

Seven It is the brightest star of them all

Eight, nine

Here comes the sun

The sun is shining out of my hands it can burn, it can blind you when it breaks out of the fists it lays down hotly on your face it lays down painfully on your chest balance is lost it lets you go hard to the floor and the world counts loudly to ten

One Here comes the sun

Two Here comes the sun

Three It is the brightest star of them all

Four And it will never fall from the sky

Five Here comes the sun

Six Here comes the sun

Seven It is the brightest star of them all

Eight, nine

Here comes the sun

Are you rolling your eyes because you don't think the Krauts poo on each other? Cause I've got boatloads of German scat porn to prove ya wrong bucko....and I've been to the Fatherland. Trust me, they're into freaky-deaky sex.

They do like chanting in their metal too, this goes all the way back to "Accept" in the 80's.

It's not their music that's dorky, it's their singing. You can't make German sound cool no matter what you try. It's a clunky, hilarious language and it's even sillier when you're supposed to take it seriously.

Sorry I shit on your favorite band. Sue me, I'm half German. Pooping on things comes naturally.

"Heirate Mich" is probably what you're referring to. Their lyrics are certainly provocative.

I'm a naturalized former German, so yeah - I speak German. My 8 and 5 year old love Rammstein, but thankfully they don't speak German or they wouldn't be allowed to listen to it.

I have their "Live aus Berlin" concert DVD. In the interviews, one of the guys basically said "Hard Riffs, hard lyrics. Easy riffs, easy lyrics". In context, he basically said that when their music is heavy, the lyrics match. Personally, I like "Reise, Reise" best, even though I didn't care for it at first. "Stein Um Stein" is my favorite. The first time I heard it, the lyrics bitch-slapped me. Again referring to the interview, they were talking about the lyrics and simply said that the stuff they write about happens in the real world. It doesn't mean they condone it.

I have all of their albums, however, I think that I like
them because I cannot understand the lyrics. I have
read the translated lyrics sheets and they are nothing
special, in fact, most of the lyrics are quite pedestrian.

I like music with no words or in languages that I don't understand. It helps me avoid getting pissed off at the performers when they say stupid shit in the songs.

When we dance I want to lead
when you turn yourself around alone
let us control you a bit
I'll show you how to walk right

We create a lovely round dance
the freedom plays from all violins
music comes from the White House
and in front of Paris stands Mickey Mouse

We're all living in America
America is wonderful
we're all living in America

I know the very useful steps
and I will protect you from missteps
and who does not want to dance at the end
does not know that he must dance

We create a lovely round dance
I will show you the direction
to Africa comes Santa Claus
and in front of Paris stands Mickey Mouse

We're all living in America
