Are Rammstein the best band of the last decade?

I literally cannot think of a band that has produced such a quality of work as Rammstein has over the last decade or so. Even if you don't speak a word of German their songs are amazingly tight and well crafted and the musicianship of the underlying rifts and rhythm is impeccable. Obviously people know them for their antics on stage and often dismiss them as "that Nazi skinhead band" but the artistry of the members is staggering. Any thoughts?

I really like Rammstein. The lasat 10 years I'm not sure, as I'm a much bigger fan of the stuff up until Rosenrot. They sort of lost me there. I really dug Te Quiero Puta, but that was about it on that album. I haven't really kept track of them lately, but their lyrics are really good, dark and perverted once translated. They're really awesome. I know I'm not the most eloquent, but Mutter is a beautiful album. Spieluhr is a gorgeous melody/take on an old German song.

Don't know if it's the best band but it's one of my favourites and, at least, they are original and contribute to music in something.

"that Nazi skinhead band" is probably the worst description someone can make about Rammstein and it proves the lack of knowledge about the band.

Hell no Mutter was their last good album everything after that sucks badly

What?! Reise, Reise was a great album and the song Rosenrot (from the album Rosenrot) is the most beautiful song that they've ever done - it's a very beautiful song in meaning. I will agree that their last album wasn't all that great though.

Mutter > > > Reise Reise it contains their best songs Mein Herz Brent, Sonne, Ich Will, Mutter, Feur Freil it`s their most consistent record Reise Reise had one good song Ohne Dich the rest were clunkers

I'd hardly call Keine Lust, Mein Teil or Reise Reise "clunkers" but it's all down to opinions though, isn't it? Sonne is a beautiful song though, no denying.
