Prediction: Rammstein is DONE
Rammstein is one of my favorite bands of all time PERIOD. Blah blah blah “they got too commercial” blah blah. STFU.
I was pissed all last week after reading the news that Till (lead singer) is leaving the band. As far as I know, he has been the voice of the band since the beginning, and is the first image you get when you think of Rammstein (that OR the scrawny keyboard guy). They have gotten the guy from KMFDM to sing instead. That guy is a skinny puke! Sure KMFDM is awesome and all that but he is supposed to replace this:
The guy is on fire alright.
If you saw the family values tape/dvd that had Rammstein you also saw some of the other crazy stuff they do. Hell if you have seen them live you really know… especially in Europe since we here in the US cant handle their full show apparently.
Till whips himself on stage, shoots lasers out of his eyes, and again - sets himself on fire. Their sound is defined by the keyboards, 80s-ish crunchy guitars and TILL’S SINGING. He’s got on of those deep growly voices but can still sing… good luck on replicating that.
So Im not sold on this at all! They should change the name and not call this project Rammstein. Rarely can you change singers and have your band even come close to resembling the old band, and definitly not in this case.
Now, I think I read that Till may be doing a solo effort. I will certainly check that out. I will probably check out new Rammstein too, but I wont call it Rammstein anymore….since it isnt the same band. My prediction: Fans are gonna drop this new “Rammstein” and just keep playing all the old CDs.

omfg!!! he cant leave!!! and i agree with you 100%. they are no longer Rammstein. fuck that sucks!!!
July 30th, 2007 at 4:28pm
right, basically this guy knows jack shit, if he was a true rammstein fan he would have realised by now that the departure of Till was all lies.
rammstein even realised an offical statement saying that he was still in the band, its even in kerrang magazine (in the uk) that the rumours were untrue.
July 30th, 2007 at 4:29pm
THIS F’IN BLOWS!!!!!! I cant BELIEVE that they subsituted Till for the KMFDM singer, he’s good, but definitely NOT Rammstein material. Like you, I’m in total mourning, this f’in SUCKS :0) MWAH!! ~Princess F’in Hacksaw~

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Last time I see these guys live was in the UK… 2005?!? So long ago… Been waiting for new tour and now I see this news. Ahhhh, it’s a sad day.

Fuck that. Till will ALWAYS be the voice of Rammstein. Hands down. Somethings you just CAN’T replace. So in my eyes…they are done. I’ve seen the family values tour DVD. It was one of the only 3 things we had to watch when our cable went out. So their show was burned into my grey matter. Their shows are amazing. They have great theatrics and great eye candy. They knew what to give to the crowd and could always blow your mind. They rock with Till…you know. I think the only band that went on with great prosperity after the lead singer left would have to be…Pink Floyd. But that’s my opinion. And who knows…this new Rammstein may go on to great things. But in all truthfulness and reality…it will NEVER EVER be the same. I agree with the closing statement on this article. The “New” Rammstein won’t be around much longer. WTF???

Dude, this sucks!
I loved rammstein!!!
WTF!
Well even if the sound isnt the same lets hope this new fucker is fuckin down to be crazy haha
other wise, this new project will be a failure!

July 30th, 2007 at 4:56pm

Yeah that does suck.
I’ve never seen Rammstein live but
after seeing a video clip of them live,
I think they’re one of the best bands today to see live.
This pretty much sucks, especially for those die hard fans.

BASICALLY, ITS FAKE, TILL LINDERMAN IS NOT, I REPEAT NOT LEAVING RAMMSTEIN, THIS IS OLD NEWS, CHECK IT UP ON WIKI IF YOU DONT BELIEVE ME, IT SAYS THAT IT WAS A HOAX AND IS FAKE, SO GUTTED.

July 30th, 2007 at 6:08pm
