Reise Reise

[Links234]

I picked up the new Rammstein cd today and was wondering if anyone else is listening to it and what they think. So far so good but I havent' heard enough of it to get a good feel for it.

[Crusader]

I saw the Amerika video. It's great.

[Akarik]

I also enjoyed the Amerika video, but I find it kind of awkward listening to the rest of the songs that are in german.

[Crusader]

I don't mind the German. It's still pretty good.

I bought Reise, Reise on the day it came out, I've been a Rammstein fan for a long time, this is a great album. It's different from the previuos ones. "Ohne Dich" is a really powerful ballad, incidentally, they recently released a video for that song, you can download it at www.mutter.ru, click the link underneath the picture of Till Lindemann laying on the rocks. It's a powerful and cinematic video with a theme totally new for Rammstein.

So far I am really enjoying the album. It's really powerful as usual with Rammstein. Reise Reise is my favourite song so far but I'm still in the stage of feeling things out. I was wondering if anyone knew where the flight recorder hidden track comes from. Is it from an actual black box?

I almost picked it up. But I just bought a ton of of cd's and I had to leave something off the list. I guess I wasn't a big fan of the song Amerika. Maybe because it was so overplayed when I was in Germany in October. I will get it eventually when I can find it used.

 

I do however love German bands both that sing in English and German. It used to be that I loved discovering Canadian bands, but now I love to discover new German bands just as much.

[HoboFactory]

Rammstein actually doesn't sing in English terribly often, especially when you take off the covers they've done for songs written in English. On "Reise, Reise" though, there's a song called "Moskau" which is sung largely in Russian, kind of interesting.

 

Some other German bands that are pretty good you may want to check out if you haven't already:

 

Megaherz

OOMPH!

Eisbrecher

Boehse Onkelz

Eisheilig

[Crusader]

Wow, I wish I could read that site.

[zebrahead]

Oomph! are great. One of the best rock albums this year for sure. If you like Rammstein, there's a chance you might also enjoy Oomph! For starters try the song "Augen Auf!"

[Crusader]

Who wants to send me the album?

[saturnine]

apparently rammstein are the equivalent of limp bizkit in germany.. not that i care, of course

Apparently yes, this is a real black box recording from a Japanese aircrash.

 

 

As for them being the equivolent to Limp Bizkit, that's offensive. Rammstein is infitiley more talented. They are more capable as musicians as far as playing instruments goes, their singer has a really amazing range, and also a much more capable songwriter, very talentetd when it comes to writing, even has a book of poetry out called "Messer."

[here is no why]

I haven't bought the CD yet. Kinda disapointed in myself. Amazing band. Amazing live.

i had a dream last night, and i was in a place that sold cans of coffee, all sorts of coffee. one of then was labeled 'reise'. i didn't think anything of it until i saw something about it on here.

[HoboFactory]

I had a 'Reise, Reise'-themed dream once also, but mine had a stipper.

[Crusader]

Were there midgets?

[HoboFactory]

Maybe working the spotlights or something.

[Crusader]

I've never had a dream with spotlights...

 

;) The dreams in which I'm dyin' are the best I've ever had.. :angry:
