Gargantuan lead singer Till Lindemann is best friends with Chris Martin. 8) The two bands have formed a Mutual Appreciation Society and play each other's albums on their tour buses. 8) Till turned up to see CP in Berlin recently.

If there is one band other than Coldplay that I would eat my heart out to see live, it would be Rammstein! :D Anyone agree?

I can't say I've ever heard their stuff, but if it's good enough for Chris Martin it's good enough for me :D

Oh WOW, HAVEN'T you? :o I'm not sure, but I think you just might like it - VERY, VERY different from CP. Give it go and come back and let me know what you think! I recommend Bestrafe Mich from the album Sehnsucht. Their stage act is IMMENSE! :twisted:

It's so funny to see the German titles of Rammstein in here... "Bestrafe mich", now that would be "Punish me"... I like "Engel" a lot and some others are funny as well. But altogether it's too simple in my opinion and too similar... 8)

Yes, it must be funny for you to see the German! The language sits so well with their music, though, somehow. It just wouldn't be the same in English! Do you think their stuff is simple? Oooh, I disagree - that's what I really like about Bestrafe Mich - especially the opening few bars, the way the rhythm changes or something - complex - very clever. No, I find it surprising - like Coldplay in that respect. However, I do agree that the SOUND is similar. But then, some people think that all CP's stuff is samey. :roll:

I'm not a big fan but I know Johnathon Ross is...radio 2 Sat. mornings!

Hey! I'm so happy that some others here like them too!

The only way to listen to them is VERY LOUD! :twisted: I turn up the volume until the cat wakes up! And that's LOUD!

But then, I think Coldplay are best loud.

Maybe I'm deaf ...... :roll: :lol:

Katharina

You are not deaf, hun! No way... :D If you were I'd have to be as well since I listen to my music VERY loud 24/7... ;)

Your brain cells are probably complete and in good working order - not like mine which are being systematically terminated like Hal's in 2001 - A Space Odyssey, by a combination of old age, lack of sleep and too much wine ....

*sings* Daisy, Daisy, give me your answer do, I'm half crazy ...... :-o

i cant say i care for german-metal trash music.

Well you don't care for anything really do you? :dozey:

i care for good music, just not trash.

27-07-2003, 01:46 AM

Rammstein is not trash. They sound exactly like other english/caucasian bands. The only reason YOU don't like them is that you're a racist bastard. I've read your other posts... I bet you a million bucks you'd like them if they weren't German.

CityandColour

27-07-2003, 01:57 AM

you're a prick. i have no problem with them being german, do i have a problem with coldplay being english? no, do i have a problem with our lady peace being canadian? no. the only reason they are trash to me is because they're metal as i recall.

Ghaladan

27-07-2003, 03:16 PM

They're not metal at all. If you actually listened to them, and maybe some of they're newer music, maybe, MAYBE *oh! *gasp* you might actually LIKE them!
As for petty insults, I only deal them when deserved. They do not hurt me when I know it is not actually meant for me.

Victoria

27-07-2003, 10:14 PM

They're NOT metal - they're not anything previously experienced. YES, they're heavy, YEAS, they're challenging, YES, they're musical, and YES, Coldplay think they're great! And what's good for CP is good for me lol :D
