New Rammstein Album, "Zeit" is out
and it's fucking amazing.
This isn't even close to being the best track, but it's the new video so there, eyeballs.

Also a great live act.
There's nothing quite like being in an audience singing along to Links.
Except perhaps the spunk cannon.

I talked at length with a German metalhead about Rammstein.
Like a lot of Euro-alt bands (I'm definitely looking at you, Laibach), their lyrics are a bit deliberately ambiguous, which can be a bit worrying when they get embraced by the non-German-speaking fans, who end up chanting all the wrong bits from the chorus and seem to miss the point.
Rammstein generally seem to have their hearts in the right place, though, even though this track is literally all about being afraid of the black man.

Along with "You need to properly understand German to get it "

had a german mate who did their pyrotechnics for years when they toured
they fired him after some minor difference of opinion with the singer. I only heard his side of the story, but he thought it was pretty shabby treatment after almost a decade of work
