What does Rammstein sing about?

Question

My husband is latino...typical romantic with good rhythm, but he picked up a rammstein cd at his construction job, and he has instantly become a head banger. I get the feeling that the german lyrics are probably negative....What do the lyrics say in English?
He only likes it for the sound. He doesn't know what the words mean, either.

Answer 1

Some of the most disgusting things you can imagine.

I love the sound of Rammstein too -- in fact have been to see them in concert a couple times (at the Maritime Hall in San Francisco, opening for SoulFly, was FREAKING AWESOME!!! The full-blown stage show from Live Aus Berlin minus only the big scaffolding. Imagine that full pyro show INCLUDING THE FREAKING FLAMETHROWER in an indoor hall only big enough for about 2,000 people -- the fire marshal was turning purple! lol)

But their lyrics are quite deviant. They used to have them posted on their website, but had to take them down due to content -- that should say something right there.

Their stage show is also a mixture of just incredible imagery mixed with some stuff that (unfortunately) fits in PERFECTLY in San Francisco, if you get my drift... "Buch Dich" in particular...

I still listen to them... but I do feel a bit dirty afterwards sometimes.. ;)

Here is a website with UNOFFICIAL translations (the ones which used to be on the official website were slightly different but essentially the same):

Answer 2

i like them just for the sound, like most metal bands they probably are negative but i get positive from listening to it.

Answer 3

Flowers and Sunshine... But he makes it heavy metalish... he includes nasty words in it also that im not going to put an example...
