| Rammstein are probably Germany's most
wanted and most hated band at the same time.
Their combination of brutal guitars and techno sounds, morbid
lyrics and live shows reminiscent of Alice Cooper and Marilyn
Manson without a visible trace of irony divide critics and
audience alike.
Still, an extensive and largely sold-out tour
through the States and cameos in US blockbusters like "XXX"
starring Vin Diesel speak for themselves. Their music has
been used in films like "The matrix" or "Lost
Highway". By international standards (Billboard charts),
Rammstein is the most successfull German band ever.
Rammstein was founded in 1994 in the Eastern parts of Berlin
and Schwerin.
