New RAMMSTEIN Song Leaked; Fan Sites Threatened With Legal Action - July 17, 2009

German music web site Laut.de reports that a brand new RAMMSTEIN song entitled "Liebe Ist Für Alle Da" has been leaked onto the Internet. Although the German industrial metal band's representatives, Pilgrim Management, have not publicly confirmed the track's authenticity, the fact that Pilgrim is being listed as the registered owner of the www.liebeistfueralleda.de web domain seems to suggest that the song is, in fact, the genuine article.

According to Laut.de, RAMMSTEIN's management has threatened legal action against any web sites that post links to the copyright-infringing material. As a result, Europe's largest RAMMSTEIN fan site Rammstein-Austria.com is currently directing all of its traffic to its forum. Other RAMMSTEIN fan sites have also reportedly been told to refrain from posting links to the song, which is expected to appear on the band's new studio album.

In 2004, RAMMSTEIN's management reportedly sent a cease-and-desist letter to the Berlin-based RAMMSTEIN fan site RammsteinFan.de demanding the removal of several copyrighted images and ringtones.

RAMMSTEIN recorded the initial tracks for the band's new album in Los Angeles with Jacob Hellner and the production team of Ulf Kruckenberg and Florian Ammon. A studio was rented near San Francisco for the bulk of the main recording work.

RAMMSTEIN's last album, "Rosenrot", received its long-overdue U.S. release in March 2006 via Universal Music. The CD, which was certified platinum in Germany for sales in excess of 200,000 copies within two weeks of release in October 2005, topped the official album chart in Germany, Austria and Finland, and landed at No. 2 in Sweden and Denmark, No. 4 in the Netherlands and the Czech Republic, No. 5 in France, No. 6 in Mexico, No. 11 in Italy and No. 29 in the U.K. In addition, "Rosenrot" achieved gold status in Austria, the Czech Republic and Switzerland.

RAMMSTEIN's "Völkerball" DVD was released in North America in September 2007.

English translation of the lyrics:

Warm water

Beautiful bodies

How they're shining

In the sun

I sneak up

And talk fine

Who wants to fuck

Has to be kind

There is love for everyone

There is love for everyone

There is love for everyone

I close my eyes

Then I see her

I lock her up in my imagination

I close my eyes

She doesn't defend herself

Love is there for everyone - not for me

Warm water

Beautiful bodies

Not for me

It's running away

Finest shapes

Well built

Full mouth

So brown skin

There is love for everyone

There is love for everyone

There is love for everyone - for me as well

I close my eyes

Then I see her

I lock her up in my imagination

I close my eyes

She doesn't defend herself

Love is there for everyone - not for me

I close my eyes

We are alone

I'm holding her

And nobody sees her crying

She closes her eyes

She doesn't defend herself

There is love for everyone - for me as well

There is love for everyone

The love is there for everyone

There is love for everyone - for me as well

And a description of some of the songs by:

‘Rammlied’

Billed as a celebration of all things Rammstein, it shouldn’t come as any surprise that ‘Rammlied’ is just the sort of dark gung-ho industrial metal we’ve come to love from the German band. Reminiscent of their early years, the song mixes traditional mittelalter with the industrial revolution.

‘Ich Tu Dir Weh’

Literally translated as ‘I Hurt You’, this is a no-shit, fuck you that sits on top of some particularly dirty, S&M-infused electro beats. With its brute-force chorus, you just know this is going to be a floor-filler once it hits the clubs. “Ich liebe dich nicht,” spits frontman Till Lindemann, which means “I don’t love you” and boy does he mean it!

‘Waidmanns Heil’

This is apparently what hunters said to each other in the olden days to wish them luck in their game and those naughty Rammstein boys have used it as a sexual innuendo here. It’s a full-on marching anthem, in the same kind of vein as ‘Links 2-3-4’ but with added military fanfare. Expect more unwarranted accusations of them being Nazis to follow….

‘Pussy’

WTF! Rammstein go Steel Panther on us! “You’ve got a pussy/I’ve got a dick/So what’s the problem?/Let’s do it quick!” sings Till with his tongue firmly in his cheek (We think that’s his tongue anyway). Hearing Rammstein sing such overtly sexual lyrics in English is quite surreal and it does beg the question of how serious they really are with this song. The music behind it is equally as cheesy as tonka beats mix with harder edged electro-industrial. And who says Germans don’t have a sense of humour?

‘B******’

Drop-kick drums, grinding riffs and horror-driven keyboards – it could almost be a Rob Zombie song were it not for Till’s unmistakable vocals. Whatever those stars might stand for, this is a real foot-tapper.

‘Haifisch’

Meaning shark, this is another floor-filler with its cheesy keyboards, orchestral touches and even a harp. There’s definitely a touch of ‘Mutter’ about this one.

‘Wiener Blut’

‘Mein Teil Part 2, this is Rammstein’s take on the Josef Fritzl case complete with a bombastic industrial metal racket chorus. More orchestral parts and even some strings demonstrate how the band’s sound has matured over the years.

‘Mehr’

About as close as Rammstein are going to get to a ballad this time round, ‘Mehr’ mixes the band’s classic thundering beats with those distinctive vocals and chucks in some strings to complement the whole thing. OK, so it’s not even remotely like a ballad – thank fuck for that!

Pussy sounds hilarious.

New Rammstein Album Track-By-Track Preview

Link

Singing in French, a track that sounds like Depeche Mode and ending with an acoustic song that’s key hook is Till Lindemann whistling? Welcome to the mad world of the new Rammstein album!

1. Rammlied – A long operatic intro gives way to some epic power-chords and drums in tandem before a typically mammoth industrial riff takes over. This is a track that celebrates all things Rammstein and the chants of the band’s name throughout the song are certain to be a fixture of the band’s upcoming live show. There are also some Eastern-influenced strings that lead in to a pounding beatdown towards the end of the track too.

2. Ich Tu Dir Weh – Electronics, a slamming intro and a drum roll lead the way before a grinding riff in the vein of ‘Mein Teil’ kicks in. There are acoustic guitars that echo ‘Los’ from ‘Reise Reise’, stirring vocals and a hell of a lot of Distorted guitars, slamming drums in tandem throughout.

3. Waidmann’s Heil – Now things are getting interesting. Horns that sound like the cavalry are on their way are followed by pedal-to-the-metal riffing that echoes Ministry and ‘Fire Frei’ from ‘Mutter’. There is an enormous, almost hip-hop flavoured beat prior to ‘Waidmann’s Heil’s chorus and a mid-section that sounds like the heavy part of Metallica’s ‘One’ at twice the pace. Kick ass!

4. Haifisch – You may find this hard to believe but ‘Haifisch’ sounds exactly like Depeche Mode for the majority. Imagine Rammstein doing their own ‘Personal Jesus’ with swinging drums and electronic stabs throughout. One thing’s for certain – burlesque troupes across the globe are going to love this one.

5. B****** – The biggest riff of the album so far, we’re talking about a H-bomb of a riff that rivals ‘Sonne’ in terms of brilliance. It’s a jarring, low-end and sinister crunch that is going to sound immense in rock clubs.

If you’re wondering if the title is short for Bastard or Bollock, it isn’t. it’s actually that Till Lindemann has made up his own word and there’s no way of actually spelling the pronunciation.

6. Fruehling In Paris – The most radical departure for the band on the record. An acoustic track with break-beat drums (that sound like Olive’s ‘You’re Not Alone’) and French vocals in the song’s chorus. While it sounds madder than an asylum full of mental two-headed mutant badgers in prospect, it’s an inspired effort that is up amongst the very best songs of the band’s careers.

7. Weiner Blut – Translated as ‘Vienna Blood’, ‘Weiner Blut’ is the track that is said to be about Joseph Fritzel. We couldn’t tell you in what respects as we only got a C in GCSE German but we can tell you that it is the heaviest track on the record. Lindemann teases during a melancholy intro and you just know it’s going to blow. A sinister whisper of ‘willkommen’ and all hell breaks loose for the remainder of the track.

8. Pussy – Go on, have a guess what this one’s about? It’s Rammstein at their tongue-in-cheek best, opening with the lyric “too big, too small, size does matter after all” and featuring the chorus “you’ve got a pussy, I’ve got a dick, what’s the problem? Let’s do it quick”, Rammstein echo ‘Amerika’ in sound and laugh their asses in the process.

9. Liebe Ist Fur Alle Da – In a haze of up-tempo riffs and fierce blasts of snare drums, ‘Liebe Ist Fur Alle Da’ rattles along like a freight train. It’s as punk rock as Rammstein get in that it’s basic in structure and just kicks your teeth to the back of your throat for its duration.

10. Mehr – An electronic intro that sounds like Tears For Fears ‘Shout’ and a tender backing is complimented by a typically sinister Lindemann spoken vocal. There’s an unexpected twist of pace that leads to a typically grinding Rammstein riff but just as it starts to feel a little familiar, there’s a great middle build-up that is about as poppy as a band as nasty as Rammstein get.

11. Roter Sand – Rammstein end their as-yet untitled opus with a track that just features Till Lindemann’s vocals and an acoustic guitar throughout. The lead hook to the song is Lindemann whistling and it’s a stirring, building epic ending to what might be Rammstein’s most varied record to date.

Rammlied is gonna be sick. It's about time they did another song where Till roars the word "Rammstein" continuously over a big power chord riff.
