I think an important aspect that is not noted by the lyrics here 3:03 is that they have a polyvalence of meanings - they use German words, which can have multiple meanings depending on the context without giving you the context. In other words, they mean all the meanings at once and perhaps none of the meaning at once - because they are "plastic words" in the Pörksenian sense (Penn State University Press, 2004). If you ignore German orthography, and merely focus on phonemes - Rammstein uses words that sound like other words (homophones) - "Du hast mich" could also be "Du haßt mich," They also do a lot of play on words, use metaphors and idioms. That is their genius. A lot gets lost in translation, which makes their lyrics appear simplistic when they really are extremely complex.

From the German point of view it's also really interesting that the thing I like the most about Rammstein is completely lost on international audiences: their lyrics. Aside from Till sounding really fantastic, he's also a really talented poet (he actually even published poetry over the years). The themes and stories are really interesting, mature, well told and offer some really great insight into the human condition. They are often told from the perspective of some interesting, complex and sometimes deranged character, which is a fact that often gets overlooked by critics: the lyrics are not from the point of view of Rammstein or Till, but from a character. And as a fan of literature I can't help but notice the influence of classic German literature and poetry. A lot of the lyrics are really similar in style and rhyme scheme to German poets like Goethe or Schiller (they even referenced some classic works in their songs, e.g. Roter Sand references Effi Briest, Haifisch references Brecht, Dalai Lama references Goethe). If you took certain Rammstein lyrics, mixed them up with poems by aforementioned poets and asked someone to determine which were written by whom, I guarantee you that he would be completely unable to do so consistently. I really like that Rammstein is so popular outside of Germany and they have a lot of qualities to justify that, but it's a bit of a shame that Till's poetry gets lost in translation.

Simple, they are unique. There is so much real pain in their music that you can't help but stop what you doing and listen. It's captivating. They have an upside to them and a funny side, but the painful side is where they truly shine. Some of it is truly heart breaking and I love them for it.

I could probably intimidate somebody who doesn't understand English that way.

is it ok if i am triggered when a foreigner in my English speaking country pronounces English words wrong?

I was gifted the Mortal Kombat Annihilation soundtrack for Christmas of ‘97, at 10 years old, I think it was. Got hooked on “Engel” and almost convinced myself they were singing goofy English lyrics somehow. But I absolutely got addicted to their tone and have been a fan ever since. I used to blast their music right before a motocross race and it always worked wonders to get past the nerves. Love these guys.

After seeing them in concert in September, their shows are second to none. The amount of work put into their shows is crazy. No band comes close. Rammstein is in a universe of their own.

Also: Till Lindemann is a learned pryotechnician, he always works on the stage fireworks himself.

No big secret , they have great songs with wonderful memorable melodies.

I would add "lyrics" to the list, since the lyrics why seemingly straight forward at times always have like a greater depth to them really. There is so much irony, hidden imagery and subtle social and political criticism to it while depicting the obscene nature and conflict of the human mind, at times sheer brutality on the outside but the deeper meaning makes them relatable and personal, showing in merciless "in your face" way that we have a part in that grotesque nature. But then I realized based on how many fans word wide probably never understood a word of that Till sings, the lyrics are probably not the reason Rammstein is popular, even though they might be very important to a more involved audience.

And I think, unfortunately, the dude that is narrating this video is one of the people that doesn't actually really get it. Take their most "popular" song... I bet there's millions of people who would say Du Hast is their favourite song, yet aren't able at all to articulate what it's actually about, and that's a shame.

Just got to see Rammstein in San Antonio, and wow... The greatest musicians to exist. I adore them so much!

A number of years ago, I had an online friend from Germany who was very into music and he would share with me songs and videos from different artists he was into. One day he sent me a video from Rammstein. I really liked when I heard and decided to search for more from them. The more I found, the more I was blown away. They had a unique sound and a great look. I developed quite the obsession with them for a number of years. I saw them in play live several times, including one time when I travelled from South Florida to New York City to see them play Madison Square Garden. My obsession has cooled over the years as obsessions often do, but I still appreciate their music as well as the experiences I've had and the friends I made as a result of discovering this one of a kind group..

So are so many talented musicians that never get a fraction of the recognition that rammstein has so I disagree. They're just that perfect level of heavy for most people where there's distortion and it baarely touches the label "heavy" but in an extremely safe, poppy and inoffensive way, relying on imagery instead to offend just like manson. Their riffs are beyond basic and accessible, not that they should be nonstop shredding but I don't think I've ever heard their guitar player play a 16th note. Ever. Their drums melt into the background instantly they're so boring, and their singer is good but in a classicly trained way which isn't that appealing to me. They were cool when i was 12 but they're a yawn fest now.

Stage presence is nice but I have no interest in seeing them so it's not a factor, just their music itself. Their shows do look cool though but again, nothing to do with their composition skills. They aren't even that heavy anyways. I guess if all you listen to is billboard top 100 they seem heavy. They were heavy back when the only rock bands I knew were 3 days grace, slipknot, linkin park etc but these days I'm more into technical death metal, slamming bdm and some math/prog rock so it feels like they aren't heavy anymore and what they write is suuuper basic. All they have is pyrotechnics and a good clean singer, every other band member sucks at what they do. Oh and they seem to be way better directors than musicians so there's that. And yes this is all 100% my opinion, just felt like getting it out there.
