There's not a big precedent for German bands succeeding in the United States, the '80s bombast-rock of the Scorpions notwithstanding. Rammstein, however, may be the macho men to get the job done, at least in a concert setting. Decidedly Teutonic and militant in sound and lyrics--they sing in German and their commanding semi-industrial metal is compelling--Rammstein garnered rock-radio airplay for the catchy sing-along "Du Hast," which translates here as "You Hate" and bears a striking musical resemblance to the Golden Earring tune "Twilight Zone." While Sehnsucht's 11 songs are solid, it's the live shows where everything gels. There, KISS pyrotechnics and disturbing NIN-like images, for example, complement Rammstein's forceful music. Without the visual stimuli, Sehnsucht (which means "longing") is still a strong effort, but live is where the album's Germanic gems really shine. --Katherine Turman

Customer Reviews

GREAT Band & CD
This is the THIRD CD of Sensucht that I have purcahsed. I wore the first one out by listening to it WAY too much ;) The second CD got lost in the shuffle in a cross-country move. This CD was the first CD I had ever heard of Rammstein's, and I have been a dedicated fan ever since!

Put some amps into it.
I've been listening to Rammstein for years now.

Lately they've adopted the over-simplified 'Hate America' jingoism so popular in Europe and the intelligentsia press, but that doesn't mean their earlier music wasn't absorbing and fresh.

This is metal meant to be listened to with an edge, and I find putting 2,000 watts into it produces the intended effect. Believe me, Rammstein wasn't made for your 20 watt car stereo.

If you want to get going, and metal helps you go there, here's where you need to go.

Amazing
This is an epic album. It has a driving beat in all of the songs. Till's vocals always sound crisp. The best tracks on this are: Stripped (the version you get may not have this on it), Sehnsucht, Du Haßt (probably the best known Rammstein song, Fellfrosh (amazing grinding guitars), Bueck Dich (great for headbanging) Engel, (amazing vocals) Spiel Mit Mir (nice, slow heavy guitars, scary lyrics), and Eifersucht (best song for headbanging). Overall its just a great CD. I would recommend it to any metal fan.
