Rammstein - Keine Lust

Band:  Rammstein
Song:  Keine Lust
Album:  Reise, Reise
Genre:  Industrial Metal

Now you can't just give solo artists the big ups.  There are some bands that really manage to put on straight up fantastic shows, one of them being Rammstein.

Their music is such a weird art, and their videos and live show only help that whole image.  This song for example is about extreme excess, and how it leaves you dead and senseless eventually.  The video shows this by having them all be incredibly overweight and waited on by beautiful women that they just don't have the time for.  The title of the song translates literally to "Do not feel like" or, I don't feel like it.

They really shine in their live shows though.  With fire, explosions, lights, and humiliation, they manage to transcend a standard performance and turn it into a whole new piece of art.  One of my favorite examples of that is their show at Madison Square Gardens.  Check out this one, Till, the singer, get's elevated a good 20 to 30 feet up with no saftey gear and shoots off pyrotechnics while he's up there.  The whole band has their routine that happens each show and it never fails to disappoint.  Probably the best part is that they manage to play the music really close to the albums, if not better.

Side note, I'm not sure if their mics do this in the live video I picked, but the guitarists do backup vocals at some points and the mics lay down on the stage till they need them.  I think that's pretty slick honestly, keeps 'em from being a distraction from the main show till they rise dramatically, then they go away again till the next time.

Any band that can manage to sound just like their albums when they play live are winners in my book, and Rammstein in that regard has earned a bit of your time.  Be sure to check 'em out.

Rammstein - Tier

Band:  Rammstein
Genre:  Industrial Metal

So firstly huge shoutout to Bobaflex if any of those dudes stick around for any other posts.  I posted their band yesterday and all the sudden I'm getting Facebook page likes and other such attention.  Turns out they liked my page and even took the time to comment here, so that's hella dope in my opinion.  \m/

Aight, this is a freaking 2 AM post though because, once again, I was enjoy the time my friend is back in town.  Had another dude with us tonight though who, while we were listening to all kinds of tunes, asked for some Rammstein.  I'm always down for that cause Rammstein is freaking awesome, so we started up with that.  He requested either this song or Bestrafe Mich, so we went with this one.  Pro tip, the other song is great as well, the whole album is wonderful.  You've probably heard the song Du Hast, which is also on the album.

But yeah man, good times.  Apologies for the shoddy quality posts, I'm just really freaking tired.  I'll be better tomorrow I think.

Rammstein - Amerika

How does one get over the amount of 'Murica that was there yesterday?  With some "anti-'Murica" music, that's how.

Rammstein makes no bones in this song about how they dislike the corporate structure of America, but the song is still really enjoyable and catchy.  If you look at the translation they really bash on our capitalism.  I tell ya, what's life without some good old capitalism?

Rammstein - Ich Tu Dir Weh

Rammstein, gotta love that German Industrial Metal.  This is some reasonably messed up music actually, so if you just want to hear an enjoyable song just watch the main thing I posted and don't look into the subtitle link.

Now if you wish to know, the lyrics are probably about some very intense BDSM style stuff.  Not gonna lie, it almost scared me away from the song when I first looked up the lyrics.  One person though had the interesting idea that the song is about a Dentist.  Look here to see.  Got you the lyrics plus translation on this site as well if you're interested.

Fun fact about this video.  Til Lindemann the singer had a hole put in his cheek for this video.  They literally put a hole in his face to run a lightbulb through it so he could have it for live shows.  No CGI for Til's lights, he wants 'em put right in his mouth.

If you want any subtitles...
