Rammstein
Rammstein
Proof that you do not need controversial (Eminem style) lyrics to make a good song.
Reference - Sonne - Great song, German lyrics, I'm English.

Agreed. Rammstein lyrics are excellent.
Kokain or Wut Will nicht sterben are even better.
From a Finnish perspective.

I like Sehnsucht and Feuer Frei! Also Engel isn't bad.
You ever seen them in concert? That's possibly the most disturbing band I've ever seen.

Engel is good too.
Well, I've been to two of their concerts.
Also propably the best live-band I've seen so far.

thats the point of lyrics in a foreign language: noone cares about.
people here buy eminem because of the way the song sounds, not because of the lyrics
(and dont tell me Rammstein isnt 'controversial', go and check the lyrics of 'heirate mich' or the whole Herzeleid-lp)

Oh shut up. What I'm trying to say is that Rammstein are still well thought of within the UK as a good band. Unless you know German or get the english lyrics off the net then you haven't got a clue what the lyrics are. I don't know German, and I didn't get the lyrics until a few weeks back, but I've liked them for a while now. All I'm saying is that Rammstein are proof that lyrics don't mean everything, which seems to be how Eminem keeps getting chart songs.

Whatever the lyrics are, Rammstein is still **** from a metal perspective.
The only reason that Eminem has chart songs is because of the current musical climate. White versions of black artists simply sell better amongst our dominantly white populations.
