i am a firm disciple of RAMMSTEIN. saw them first
10 years ago when they supported the RAMONES, of
all people, here in germany. since then they went
from strength to strength. and quite rightly so!
i will be eternally thankfull to them for saving the face
of german rock music and stopping it from
disappearing up its self-righteous overtly
politically-correct bum. that may sound like a radical
position but i know for a fact that these guys are
certainly not affiliated with any nazi organisation or
way of thinking. if it hadn't been for them we'd still
have to put up with the SCORPIONS as germany's
musical ambassadors to the world – a frightful
thought
btw. the aformentioned video clip for "stripped" is an
outtake from a movie made by leni riefenstahl ("fest
der freude..:") which was actually ABUSED by hitler
as propaganda material for the 1936 olympics. leni
riefenstahl has survived the controversy about her
and continued to work as a director and
photographer way beyond the nazi regime. she only
died a few years back (she may have reached the
grand ol' age of 100) –so there you go...
