I'm apparently a bit late on this but having heard it thought I'd share:

German industrial metal outfit Rammstein premieres video footage of themselves performing a brand new song, so far only known as "Ramm 4", during their June 3 performance at the "Rock In Vienna" festival in Vienna, Austria can be seen below. The track contains lyrics that seem to be a combination of various titles of previous Rammstein songs.

The title may be a working title (possibly a reference to the fact this is the fourth song by the band to feature "Rammstein" in the lyrics).

Lyrics and a few more bits of info

I think it's fucking kickass (reminds me of Sehnsucht) and if the new album is as good as this then it should be sick. Guessing it'll be the album opener, which I'd be more than happy with.

 

[Saganator]

I really need to see these guys live

 

[Spring Drive]

Yep, that's a Rammstein song

 

[mf.luder]

Yes! Yes! They are amazing live. I want them back in Canada.

 

[Carn82]

Heh, most of the lyrics are titles of other Rammstein songs

 

[strafer]

About time.

 

[ChubbyHuggs]

Heh, most of the lyrics are titles of other Rammstein songs

I was just thinking that.

 

[Bedameister]

Yeah it's just old song titles and lyrics mixed together

 

[Nudull]

Huh, new album on the way? Felt like ages since I last heard about anything Rammstein.

 

[Hoje0308]

When these guys went into the studio last year I joked that their album would be out before TOOL's. Looks like the prediction is turning out to be more prescient than imagined. Very much looking forward to this. Love me some Rammstein!

 

[Zaraki_Kenpachi]

Heh, most of the lyrics are titles of other Rammstein songs

And the remaining few are lyrics of other songs.

 

[Psyrgery ES]

Yep, that's a Rammstein song

The drums in the begining reminded me of Depeche Mode's personal Jesus

 

[dani_dc]

Catchy, hope to hear a new album sooner rather than later.

 

[Clessidor]

good song works well as a tour and possible album opener; reminds me a lot of the unreleased Eisenmann-Demo. I wouldn't be surprised, if it's even based on the same musical idea.
Only sad thing is that I don't expect a new album before fall 2017 and we have to wait a long time until they release a proper studio version.

 

[Gigarator]

Saw them on Friday night and they opened with this, great stuff.

 

[Deadstar]

Here's pro shot footage of the new song. It's awesome!

[NoRéN]

I really need to see these guys live

Easily in my top 5 list of best live bands. Just such a damn good spectacle to behold.

 

[Danielsan]

Have to agree with the general sentiment. I don't care for their music but god damn are they amazing live.

 

[Weckum]

Easily in my top 5 list of best live bands. Just such a damn good spectacle to behold.

If you see them 7 times in a row it'll be the exact same show every time because of the pyrotechnics. Very orchestrated which it has to be because you don't want to blow anyone up, but nonetheless the best show I've ever seen (multiple times).

Funnily enough, I've been listening to them again for the last week. Always been a huge fan and recently I've begun listening to them again. Perfect workout music.

Its always worth to bet against Tool .

 

[dragonelite]

I saw them live this pinkpop was freaking awesome...!!

 

[Struct09]

I like it

 

[Deadstar]

Have to agree with the general sentiment. I don't care for their music but god damn are they amazing live.

Ha! This isn't the general sentiment. The general sentiment is that they are one of the best bands that ever was. You could pick any one of their albums and find a song and then say "This is one of their best songs." You can't do that with a lot of bands.

Their live show is definitely one of the best live experiences I've ever witnessed.

 

[aygomyownroad]

Yeah they opened download festival with that song. I thought it was just an intro for the show but pleased its an actual song as it was awesome.

 

[Shredderi]

Damn. It feels like I haven't heard from them in 10 years. They're still in my top 5 favourite bands ever. They got me into metal in the first place. They also got me into playing guitar. I wasn't interested in playing fast solos or "guitar wankery". I just wanted to play mammoth sounding riffs. Still do.

 

[Kifimbo]

Yes! Yes! They are amazing live. I want them back in Canada.

Quebec City Summer Festival, July 17.

 

[Darth Pinche]

Yep, that's a Rammstein song

LOL, this is what I was thinking.

 

[segasonic]

I love Rammstein, but the lyrics of this song are really dumb...

 

[Deadstar]

Can you translate them? Roughly what is he saying?

 

[segasonic]

Can you translate them? Roughly what is he saying?

It's the names of old Rammstein songs strung together so they rhyme. It means nothing at all.

 

[Maedre]

Its funny that they have so many fans outside of germany, austria and switzerland. I mean i understand why, but its also my language.

This song is really only a collection of songtitels. meh.

Stopped counting after 10. Never got tired of them. Scripted, choreographed, whatever it is, I prefer it over bands with no energy or stage presence.

And they are definitely one of my go-tos when I need that extra push at the gym. Not too fast but just enough to get a good rhythm going

Heh, was going to post this. Powerful, good tempo. Perfect workout music.

 

[Ronabo]

Only good use I ever get out of my 3 years of high school German.

 

[Gigarator]

Likely just placeholders for now, if this becomes a proper song on their next album I reckon they'll be entirely different.

 

[Clessidor]

Don't think it's a placeholder. The concept of the song reminds me of Eisenmann and there aren't so dumb like they sound like. I think they are fine and just meant as a warm up joke. Just think of lines like "Liebe ist für alle da! Bück dich, Amerika!" (transl. "Love is for everyone! Bend over, America!") or "Du hast keine Lust" etc.
Of course a simple jokes but not so different than the lines of "Ich tu dir weh"

 

[Novocaine]

Silly song but I dig it. I could go a new Rammstein album (and tour).

 

[Deadstar]

Likely just placeholders for now, if this becomes a proper song on their next album I reckon they'll be entirely different.

Doesn't seem like placeholders, it's very clever. If you look at the translation it makes some sense.
