Ramstein

[Links234]

*Pbbbbth*

I thought the last release, Reise, Reise, was atrocious. They had enough b-sides left over to make a new album. I preordered anyways.

i like rammstein and i understand everything they sing coz i'm german

[Straightnarrow]

I like rammstein. Especialy how their songs have that driving melody most of the time. Great workout music. Lyrics aren't always the most uplifting tho...lol. Course its in German so I wouldnt know if I didn't look it up..

I luuuuurve rammestein!!. Only got 2 of their albums but i have heard alot of their other stuff. I really like the music but as for the lyrics some of it is pretty damn harsh (listen to mutter n li8ke the dude said earlier check out the translations webpage.) Their videos are abit weird too....then again i like weird stuff lol.

Guys, if you're gonna speak German, go to the "German speaker's" thread(that's not what it's called). I don't know where it is, but my brother found it. Links234 might know where it is.

yeah I love Rammstein saw them last year live, and they were awesome gotta love the pyrotechnics, BTW I'd generally advise against learing what they mean

Lol I love Rammstein and, as with every foreign language music group that I get into, I did actually looked up what the song lyrics meant. The sound is just awesome, although the music does sound angry a lot. Spieluhr had a very creepy sound to it but when I looked up the translation I saw why lol. I would totally get all of Rammsteins albums if I could FIND THEM!!! Nobody in my small town has them which really surprised me because so many of my friends love them.

Yeah, it took me a while to find all the albums

Amazon.com has them, as does iTunes. This is assuming you mean the domestic American releases (Herzeleid, Sehnsucht, Live aus Berlin, Mutter, and Reise, Reise), not exclusive CD singles and whatnot that were only released in Europe and Australia.

Eh, I don't really find much of a problem with their lyrics, save for stuff like Weißes Fleisch, which was mainly on their first CD anyway. Personally, I think the lyrics to Klavier are creepier than Spieluhr.

Why? They're not Nazis, despite what many believe.

 

[schwarzes_schaf]

rammstein is kool. can't wait for rosenrot coming out in 10 days. and they are not nazis. i wouldn't listen to them if they were.

@sim lucky you. you saw them live

 

[simwells]

I know that, I'd just consider some of the tracks, like for instance Rein Raus and Zwitter, somewhat distasteful lyrically

I personally much prefer to buy CDs direct from a shop. but that's just me being impatient, and I refuse to pay to download (I do not do it illegally either though)

 

[Spartan4Christ]

How many CDs are there?

 

[simwells]

How many CDs are there?

4 + the new one (studio albums)

indeed, it gets to me when countless dolts go "heh, they're german so they're nazis" about anyone or anything german

for those dolts who can't understand what i'm saying

German does not equal Nazi

 

[schwarzes_schaf]

just want to inform you guys that "Rosenrot" will be released tomorrow

here's a link to their new Video "BENZIN"just click on watch video

you can listen to some of their new songs here

 

[The Gregorian]

One of my favorite songs is (I don't know how to spell it but it sounds something like this) Mien Hertz Brent, some one correct me if I'm wrong. I don't know if that's how you spell it, but whatever it's called, it's an awesome song.

Actually... you spelled it very close... it's 'Mein', not 'mien'... that's what I like about german... if you can pronounce it... it's VERY easy to spell... 'cept the 'ie' thing being backwards.

Eherm... however... rammstein is... umm... special. Basically, if you can't listen to Slipknot, and some of the harder american bands... don't translate anything rammstein does. Be happy with the beat, because some rammstein songs are a bit... well, they use german humor... 'nuff said

However, the good thing is there are no 'cuss' words in german. There are definitely words that translate into vulgar american words... but in germany, they aren't profain at all, therefore aren't correctly translated into profain words.

One good song of theirs: Du Hast. Don't trust their english version... the translation of the german song is much better.

Basically: "du, du hast, du hast mich... du hasst mich gefragt, du hasst mich gefragt, du hasst mich gefragt, und ich hab' nichts gesagt" means

you, you hate, you hate me...you asked me something, yet I said nothing.

The guy in the background is saying german wedding vows.... this song is about a guy who's about to get married, they asked him to say "I do" and he was just like "uhhh....." and his bride got mad at him.

Nothing wrong with that song... yet everyone thinks about hatred... it's just a play on words because "Hassen (hast)" does mean hate... but the "du hasst mich gefragt" is a form of "Haben"... literally it means "you have me asked"... just german word order for "you asked me" ... they just have the "you hate" part because germans like playing with words... and the change from "du hast mich" and "du hasst mich gefragt" is significant.

Ja, aber ich gehasst Reise, Reise.

Wo kommst du? Thuringen?

...ich wohnte ein monat im mecklinburg vorpommen... ... does that mean I'm cool to? ... woot... but I can't spell that one anymore.... I mean comon!

Why? They're not Nazis, despite what many believe.

hhhhhuuuuH? I've never heard anything affiliating them with the nazi party? I'm not fluent, but I've also never heard them say anything nazi-esque... why for you say them nazi? If they were, they could never go to germany... When I was there, the first thing I was told is "don't mention anything about nazis.... you will get beaten severly".... just about every teen I visited had an anti-nazi scarf or two around... I can't imagine they'd do well over there if they were nazi.

I personally much prefer to buy CDs direct from a shop. but that's just me being impatient, and I refuse to pay to download (I do not do it illegally either though)

ever translate buch Dich or bistrafe mich? .... don't.
