what do you think of Rammstein?

[dreaming neon darkspot]

I dunno about that, from what i've read their lyrics (translated) some of them are quite good and ripp off Dante and Gabriel Rossetti. They have some pretty dumb songs too, but some have double meanings in german. I'm not 100% of that, that is what i've read here: http://herzeleid.com/en/lyrics
I loled at their live performance of Buck Dich http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2eIygH_UE0I

no, i'm sure their lyrics are really good, it was just being in German one and hearing people say "I know German! Du hast!"

I once met this German chap who was a friend o' one of my ex-teachers. He said he couldn't listen to Rammstein because of the, "disgusting, unnecessary sexual perversions and innuendo" contained in their lyrics, or words to that effect. Interesting.

watch that vid, and read the lyrics to buck dich, and you will understand. Their songs like that are joke songs though

 

[lad]

Aye, I would've thought so. I dunno if the guy I mentioned was prudish or anything...some people just don't "get" that sort of humour.

Some of it's interesting, but after playing the DOD Wal-Mart level and hearing Du Hast over and over every time the Axis won, no thanks.

or Die Krupps
for example: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f_Ec81NuvPA
and yes, there is Lee Altus on guitar

the early Krupps was more electronic, not metal like this.

I saw them twice in '92-94, they were really killer and metal. at the end of thes show a lot of people went to the stage to headbang/jump/dance. (yeah, me too, hehe)

at the time there was a lot of good EBM in Europe (Front 242, Nitzer Ebb, etc) and I played (on guitar) a similar band like this, hehe.

I didn't read the whole thread, so I don't know if he was being sarcastic or not.
But what I saw was that he said KMFDM sucks, which I wholeheartedly agree with.

this is what was going on:

"Sucks"

WE LIKE TALKIN' DIRTY
WE SMOKE AND WE DRINK
WE'RE KMFDM AND ALL OTHER BANDS STINK

OUR MUSIC IS SAMPLED
TOTALLY FAKE
IT'S DONE BY MACHINES 'COZ THEY DON'T MAKE MISTAKES

WE DON'T HAVE NO LYRICS
OUR MESSAGE IS NIL
WE HATE ALL DJ'S
THEY'RE MAKIN' US ILL

WHATEVER WE TELL 'YA
IS MEANT TO BE CRAP
WE HATE ALL MUSIC AND ESPECIALLY RAP

WE DON'T LIKE
WE HATE DEPECHE MODE
WE DON'T CARE FOR MADONNA OR KYLIE MINOGUE

OUR RECORDS HAVE STICKERS WITH A WARNING FROM TIPPER
'COZ THEY'RE NO GOOD FOR KIDS
IF WE'D GET HER WE'D STRIP HER

KMFDM FORWARD THE ULTIMATE SOUND
AND A MESSAGE FROM SATAN
IF YOU TURN IT AROUND

YOU MIGHT THINK WE'RE STUPID
BUT WE'RE WAY ABOVE IT
WE DON'T GIVE A SHIT
AND THE KIDS JUST LOVE IT

WE WOULDN'T SELL TO A MAJOR FOR A COUPLE OF BUCKS
NO DOUBT ABOUT IT KMFDM SUCKS
