Rammstein: Amerika!

[MasterPhW]

Who knows this group and what's your oppinion?
"this is not a love song... I don't sing my mother tongue"
/me sings
Here in Germany it's a well known group (of course, they are German ) and this song is the first place in our Top 100 and is played up and down in the radio. And in your country?

Hi

I know the group and i dont like em.

They are to Dark but i like the Song America becaue i think its a Ironic Song.

And if we Germans watching TV we can see English language TV spots and we speak English like "ey voll cool" or Alter das Rockt" and in 100 Years we can sing all together "we all livin in America" arty:

Very much aware of them. They're regularly in UK `Rock` magazine Kerrang, but not really my thing. Then again my CD collection is best described as `varied`, in that I own around little over a dozen albums.

 

[t0rek]

I don't like the new album...

 

[2fast4u]

rammstein is not really my thing. its average rock as far as im concerned and way too slow-paced for my taste ... and that amerika song is just downright awful. whats interesting is that many of my yank friends go for this stuff like hell though the lyrics are usually pretty fucked up AND in german.

Gonna see a concert by them in a month. I am not a great fan of them anymore though, but I used to listen to them much and I'm sort of going for old times sake. They have quite cool live shows though (pyroworks anyone?).

I don't like the Amerika song too much tho, it's kinda dull after hearing it a few times.

I love Rammstein and the new Album is FANTASTIC. Especially the songs: Reise Reise, Mein Teil, Amerika and Moskau. What I like on "Amerika"? I'm not a friend of the American way of life. I HATE George W Bush, because he WASN'T elected. I hate their decision in Kyoto (environmental protection, you know),...

Because of these facts i LOVE the anti-american song "Amerika"

I used to dig Rammstein a few years ago, now they're kinda average (although Mein Hertz Brent is an amazing song). And if their new album has political themes then screw it, political music is for douchebags.

1. Not "Mein Hertz Brent". Its called "Mein Herz Brennt" Yes its one of the best
2. Its not political its simply the truth.

yeh, what a crock of shit people dare to express their opinions.

 

[Trotterwatch]

Ah, but 2fast4u, that was DuDe's opinion, which you are now mocking He's entitled to it as much as you.

 

[2fast4u]

i am aware dad, but i also believe im entitled to mock his opinion as much as he is

 

[Trotterwatch]

Ah but sweetheart, I am entitled to then mock you for mocking that... which leads to one of those neverending circles of stuff. At the end of the day, I win because I am cool

 

[2fast4u]

thats cool with me, i merely had a sick feeling you were lecturing me. i still bow before your leetness

 

[DuDe]

Expressing political opinions via entertainment is for douchebags. I'll take my music pinko (or conservative for that matter) free please.

Nah, its not political afaik (except the song amerika)...it's the usual very very "questionable" sex and other shit theme.

Ok, not so much/only that...anyways, if you liked Mutter from Rammstein give it a try.

I love Rammstein and the new Album is FANTASTIC. Especially the songs: Reise Reise, Mein Teil, Amerika and Moskau.

Yeah my favs, too. Moskau is the greatest title on the Album, sound like TATU+Rammstein... a great mix... Great Album... have to buy it (only a friend of mine have it)

 

[Burnpro]

im a big fan of rammstein i have the whole collection
i was amazed after i listened to amerika i was like " if this is the single its gonna be that awful the full album yehaa" but the new albun sucks balls, atm just moskou and amerika are my fav songs..

 

[Gorxon]

Heh, Moskau is crap. Utter shite. Pure garbage. You get the idea...

I find Dalai Lama one of the coolest tracks. It has much of the old Rammstein in it. Reise, Reise ist auch gut

Well Rammstein is funny to me only because no one knows them in my town.
A syndicated morning radio show in my area used to play one of there songs as a joke. Man was it funny. One reason it was funny because of the aggressive nature on how they sung the song. Don't get me wrong the general conscensis was this song is cool sounding. You play Rammstein against regular radio tunes and you can see a parady.
