    Probably not as part of the stadium tour although Semple Stadium here in Thurles would be a superb venue for them.

    I can see them probably doing Download and more festivals next summer. Hopefully they could fit in a 3Arena show or maybe an outdoor show?

    The RDS would be the right place for them during the summer. Either there or Marlay Park. I'd like to see an outdoor gig since they've already played the 3Arena or the O2 as it was at the time....feels like last week :(

    I regret not getting tickets for the last gig and they are on the bucket list to see live.

    Nope, I actually found out since that on the special edition the band members photos are part of the packaging and there’s a 20 something page booklet.

    Lyrics for Puppe have been released. In this instance, Puppe means doll but generally means puppet too. Zeig Dich lyrics also released, I'll try getting to this translation later on.

    Another track along the lines of Spiel Mit Mir dealing with incest with a little hint to Zerstören with regard to pulling a doll's head off ("Und jetzt den Königsdisziplin, ein kopfchen von der puppe ziehen")

    My translation:

    Wenn Schwesterlein zur Arbeit muss - If the sister must go to work
    Schließt mich im Zimmer ein - Lock me in the room
    Hat eine Puppe mir geschenkt - She has given me a doll
    Dann bin ich nicht allein - Then I am not alone
    Wenn Schwesterlein zur Arbeit muss - If the sister must go to work
    Fährt sie nicht mit der Bahn - She doesn't travel by train
    Ihr Schaffensplatz ist gar nicht weit - Her creative space is not far away
    Ist gleich im Zimmer nebenan - It's right in the room next door

    Am Himmel dunkle Wolken ziehen - In the sky, dark clouds draw in
    Ich nehme artig meine Medizin - I happily take my medicine
    Und warte hier im Daunenbett - And wait here in the down bed
    Bis die Sonne untergeht - Until the sun goes down

    Sie kommen und sie gehen - They come and they go
    Und manchmal auch zu zweit - And sometimes as a couple
    Die späten Vögel singen - The late (evening) birds sing
    Und die Schwester schreit - And the sister screams

    Am Himmel dunkle Wolken ziehen - In the sky, dark clouds draw in
    Ich nehme artig meine Medizin - I happily take my medicine
    Und warte hier im Daunenbett - And wait here in the down bed
    Bis die Sonne untergeht - Until the sun goes down

    Und dann reiß' ich der Puppe den Kopf ab - And then I pull the doll's head off
    Dann reiß' ich der Puppe den Kopf ab - Then I pull the doll's head off
    Ja, ich beiß' der Puppe den Hals ab - Yeah, I bite the doll's neck off
    Es geht mir nicht gut - I'm not doing well

    Ich reiß' der Puppe den Kopf ab - I pull the doll's head off
    Ja, ich reiß' ich der Puppe den Kopf ab - Yeah, I pull the doll's head off
    Und dann beiß' ich der Puppe den Hals ab - And then I bite the doll's neck off
    Es geht mir nicht gut … nein - I'm not doing well...no
    Dam-dam - Damn damn

    Wenn Schwesterlein der Arbeit frönt - When the sister is indulging in the work
    Das Licht im Fenster rot - The light in the window, red
    Ich sehe zu durchs Schlüsselloch - I look through the keyhole
    Und einer schlug sie tot - And with one strike, she is dead

    Und jetzt reiß' ich der Puppe den Kopf ab - And now I pull the doll's head off
    Ja, ich reiß' der Puppe den Kopf ab - Yeah, I pull the doll's head off
    Und dann beiß' ich der Puppe den Hals ab - And then I bite the doll's neck off
    Jetzt geht es mir gut … ja - Now I'm doing good...yeah

    Ich reiße der Puppe den Kopf ab - I pull the doll's head off
    Ja, ich reiß' der Puppe den Kopf ab - Yeah, I pull the doll's head off
    Und jetzt beiß' ich der Puppe den Hals ab - And now I bite the doll's neck off
    Es geht mir sehr gut … ja - Now I'm doing well...yeah
    Dam-dam - Damn damn

    Zeig Dich:

    This is the first time Till has used Latin in a Rammstein song (if anyone has a better grasp of Latin please let me know).

    Given that Latin appears and there's a strong religious influence I'm expecting the video they did with the nuns to be the one for this song.

    Exmustamus
    Cruchifixus
    Murisuri
    Extraspection

    Verüben sie Verbrechen - commit crime
    Verheißung verkünden - Proclaim promise
    Vergebung aller Sünden - Forgiveness of all sins
    Verbreiten und vermehren - Spread and multiply
    Im Namen des Herren - In the name of the Father

    Zeig dich - Show yourself

    Verstecken verzichten - Hide away
    Verbrennen und vernichten - Burn and destroy
    Verhütung verboten - Contraception prohibited
    Verstreuen sie Gebote - Spread bids
    Verfolgung verkünden - Announce persecution
    Vergebung der Sünden - Forgiveness of sins
    Verbreiten, sich vermehren - Spread, multiply
    Im Namen des Herren - In the name of the Father

    Zeig dich - Show yourself

    Zeig dich - Show yourself
    Versteck dich nicht - Don't hide

    Als Versehen sich - As a mistake
    An Kindern vergehen - A child passes away

    Not a bad video at all.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,451 ✭✭✭blastman


    For anyone looking to pre-order the CD and/or vinyl, the best price on-line right now is via Amazon France. The deluxe CD and vinyl together work out at just under €50 including delivery and Irish VAT. It's €63 for the same bundle from the official site, and almost the same price from Amazon UK. According to Keepa, Amazon France is currently cheapest for both items individually, too.

    Didn't know Eamon DeValera had been reincarnated as Rammstein's keyboard player.

    EDIT - D'oh. Didn't see same joke mentioned above. Apologies.

    Sounds a little more innocent, basically a song about growing up in the DDR and secretly listening to western music by night as a means of escape from listening to it!

    Good tune , better than Deutschland .
    Not sure how they are getting away with the nudity in the video on Youtube.

    The same way a film or a tv show would get away with nudity i imagine.

    lol, there's a ridiculous amount of serious nudity on youtube. If it comes under art/educational etc it seems to get a pass. There's even those nude dating shows etc etc.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,854 ✭✭✭✭MetzgerMeister


    Any thoughts on what the next single might be?

    There's a very strong historical theme running through the singles released already with a bit of the present/future in them i.e. Most of Deutschland is the past except for the astronauts and in Radio it's about the GDR's control of the airwaves in the past and the hologram idea is the present.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,854 ✭✭✭✭MetzgerMeister


    Zeig Dich appears to be the next single and it's the one with the nuns:

    Not a fan and couldn't say I know them well, but watched the video because it was largely criticized I can tell you what I think they are artists and what they create is how an artist see reality and transform reality through his own vision, it can be extrageratet or shocking or both, what I see and hear in that song I believe it is their image of reality how they see and understand it and I think it was pretty honest image and they as artists have my respect for that.

    Because the management are incredibly careful and doing so would result in a lawsuit.

    Remember www.herzeleid.com? It was one of the first and best fan sites going but Jeremy lost interest when the management threatened to sue him over the song Liebe ist fur Alle Da appearing on his forums. It had nothing to do with him apart from his ownership of the forum.

    Any reason why this CD is priced so dearly compared to other CDs? (I know, who buys CDs anymore? I do because I'm old!)

    Any CD I've bought recently has been around the €13-15 mark but on their website Golden Discs have it priced at €22 and Tower Records at €23. Amazon's price is currently £21. Even at Rammstein's own store it's €17. And this is for the standard edition. The deluxe is a few quid more in all cases.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,854 ✭✭✭✭MetzgerMeister


    Each seller has their own mark-up.


  • Registered Users Posts: 11,506 ✭✭✭✭Xenji


    The vinyl is even worse close to E30.00 before delivery, I have gotten far nicer color double records and gatefolds for E10 less.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,687 ✭✭✭✭jack presley

    That’s not the point though. This CD seems to be more expensive than a standard new release CD everywhere so it’s not like one retailer has a high markup.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,159 ✭✭✭Royale with Cheese


    Have listened to it a couple of times. Overall I think it's pretty decent, although it tails off a bit towards the end. Weit Weg is a bit of a stinker for me (kind of irritates me that I know they included this over Ramm4 which would have been far better), and Tattoo not massively ahead of it. At times it's a little more pop rock than they've previously been, and the synth is a little too much at the forefront for me in places. Fairly happy with it though.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,854 ✭✭✭✭MetzgerMeister

    Apart from a few tracks, a lot if sounds like it could be an Emigrate album with Till singing.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,798 ✭✭✭✭DrumSteve


    I did think it was a bit odd they released the video for the making of "stripped" on to youtube recently, but in light of the content of the Radio/Deutschland videos it does make a lot of sense.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,854 ✭✭✭✭MetzgerMeister


    The last 14 seconds of weit weg - that riff could have been the basis for a whole new stomper of a song!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 874 ✭✭✭devildriver


    Starts off strong with the first 5 songs. Bit of a slump in tempo with the middle 3 - Puppe, Was Ich Liebe and Diamant and then romps home with the final three.

    Their best album, probably not. Better than almost everything else released this year, yes!
