Rammstein - Herzeleid
- Rammstein has been making music for a long time. They pioneered the sound they created, “danse-metal.” In every album, you can hear a formula they have created, which has brought them both critical and commercial acclaim. They combine a techno sound with a heavy metal sound that is both brutal and danceable. Their album, “Herzeleid,” follows this formula, but makes some changes that distinguish it as an album from the rest of their catalog.

With its heavy 4/4 time signatures, and its chanted lyrics, this is really great marching music. It is the soundtrack for a tank invasion of Poland. With six members in the band, there is a lot going on here. What makes Rammstein great is their simplicity, in the drumming, in the guitars, and in the synths, although if you listen closely, you can hear some excellent bass playing. They even slow things down a little with the dark and soft, “Semann.”
