Rammstein
All fired up.
When it comes to playing with matches, Rammstein are the undisputed masters: but for a long time (a full decade, in fact) the main thing the Berlin collective focussed on igniting was the stage. Now they’re firing up our senses (all of them!) via a new studio album, with first single / landmark video ‘Deutschland’ making it clear – in epic, spectacular style – the precise level of heat that’s set to come our way…
In their first interview about this new album, their seventh full-length release since 1995, RAMMSTEIN tell METAL HAMMER what other fuses have been lit…
If you can leave a gap of ten years between records, then instantly cause a genuinely seismic stir with a 35-second video trailer, chances are you’re doing something right. And meaningful.
In short, Rammstein are back, and with exactly the kind of energy fans have come to expect from musicians whose desire to constantly raise the bar, to push things to the very edge, is at the beating heart of everything they do. Of course, in the ever-shifting world of rock ‘n’ roll, nothing is cast in stone; a decade is a long time, even if the band never actually went away, reminding us at regular intervals that, when it comes to staging an all-action, high-impact, scorched-earth stage-show, Rammstein continue to light the way, torches aloft, banners unfurled…
And yes, the return to the studio is for the fans, but first and foremost, it’s for them. At this point, with the Rammstein brand more successful and more potent than it’s ever been, the challenge is simple: Can previous standards be met? And not just met, but surpassed?
Because nothing else in the Rammstein universe makes sense. With all six members having an equal say in whether a song is suitable for the spotlight, there are simply no compromises. A single thumbs down, and an idea is dead.
As a result, the new (untitled) Rammstein album stands perhaps as the band’s biggest challenge to date. The musicians are, of course, older and more mature now, with more music under their belt, so greater vigilance must be applied to maintaining momentum, to keeping things focussed and fresh, whilst still embracing those signature elements that have made Rammstein such a unique and combustible expression of intellect and art.
Rammstein must still be Rammstein, but in 2019, in this brave new world, there’s no way to do that without defying convention. Step one: to respectfully part ways with longstanding producer Jacob Hellner.
Then there’s the manner of The Great Return: the aesthetically arresting first video for ‘Deutschland’, a grand-scale experience containing not just brave lyrics but brave visuals, too – responsibility for the latter resting with Eric Remberg (aka Specter), founder of the Aggro label in Berlin and now a film producer, with clients including Marteria and Sido.
It’s clear that there is real honesty and courage here, the desire to question, to provoke thought, but provocation isn’t something you can pluck out of the ether; it comes from instinct, regardless of whether you’re a newcomer or an international superstar.

Why start a music environment? The truth is I love music, I love writing, and I love life. I work with musicians every day, and I feel certain that I will be until they put me in the ground. I have been managing people in businesses of some sort for over thirty five years so along the way I have developed some “wisdom” from my regular and constant “observations”.
Amnplify your experience. That is what we want you to do here, and if you want to let me know why you do, or don’t, shoot me a message on Facebook.
